ImportFeeds Plugin
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
This plugin helps you keep track of newly imported music in your library.
|
|
|
|
To use the ``importfeeds`` plugin, enable it in your configuration
|
|
(see :ref:`using-plugins`).
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
To configure the plugin, make an ``importfeeds:`` section in your
|
|
configuration file. The available options are:
|
|
|
|
- **absolute_path**: Use absolute paths instead of relative paths. Some
|
|
applications may need this to work properly.
|
|
Default: ``no``.
|
|
- **dir**: The output directory.
|
|
Default: Your beets library directory.
|
|
- **formats**: Select the kind of output. Use one or more of:
|
|
|
|
- **m3u**: Catalog the imports in a centralized playlist.
|
|
- **m3u_multi**: Create a new playlist for each import (uniquely named by
|
|
appending the date and track/album name).
|
|
- **m3u_session**: Create a new playlist for each import session. The file
|
|
is named as ``m3u_name`` appending the date and time the import session
|
|
was started.
|
|
- **link**: Create a symlink for each imported item. This is the
|
|
recommended setting to propagate beets imports to your iTunes library:
|
|
just drag and drop the ``dir`` folder on the iTunes dock icon.
|
|
- **echo**: Do not write a playlist file at all, but echo a list of new
|
|
file paths to the terminal.
|
|
|
|
Default: None.
|
|
- **m3u_name**: Playlist name used by the ``m3u`` format and as a prefix used
|
|
by the ``m3u_session`` format.
|
|
Default: ``imported.m3u``.
|
|
- **relative_to**: Make the m3u paths relative to another
|
|
folder than where the playlist is being written. If you're using importfeeds
|
|
to generate a playlist for MPD, you should set this to the root of your music
|
|
library.
|
|
Default: None.
|
|
|
|
Here's an example configuration for this plugin::
|
|
|
|
importfeeds:
|
|
formats: m3u link
|
|
dir: ~/imports/
|
|
relative_to: ~/Music/
|
|
m3u_name: newfiles.m3u
