Info Plugin
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The ``info`` plugin provides a command that dumps the current tag values for
|
|
any file format supported by beets. It works like a supercharged version of
|
|
`mp3info`_ or `id3v2`_.
|
|
|
|
Enable the plugin in your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`) and then
|
|
type::
|
|
|
|
$ beet info /path/to/music.flac
|
|
|
|
and the plugin will enumerate all the tags in the specified file. It also
|
|
accepts multiple filenames in a single command-line.
|
|
|
|
You can also enter a :doc:`query </reference/query>` to inspect music from
|
|
your library::
|
|
|
|
$ beet info beatles
|
|
|
|
Command-line options include:
|
|
|
|
* ``--library`` or ``-l``: Show data from the library database instead of the
|
|
files' tags.
|
|
* ``--summarize`` or ``-s``: Merge all the information from multiple files
|
|
into a single list of values. If the tags differ across the files, print
|
|
``[various]``.
