Freedesktop Plugin
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
The ``freedesktop`` plugin creates .directory files in your album folders.
|
|
This lets Freedesktop.org compliant file managers such as Dolphin or Nautilus
|
|
to use an album's cover art as the folder's thumbnail.
|
|
|
|
To use the ``freedesktop`` plugin, enable it (see :doc:`/plugins/index`).
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
To configure the plugin, make a ``freedesktop:`` section in your configuration
|
|
file. The only available option is:
|
|
|
|
- **auto**: Create .directory files automatically during import.
|
|
Default: ``no``.
|
|
|
|
Creating .directory Files Manually
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The ``freedesktop`` command provided by this plugin creates .directory files
|
|
for albums that match a query (see :doc:`/reference/query`). For example, ``beet
|
|
freedesktop man the animal cannon`` will create the .directory file for the
|
|
folder containing the album Man the Animal Cannon.
