tagomatic

https://github.com/DanielLukic/tagomatic

= tagomatic Simple command-line mp3 tagger based on mp3info gem. Supports folder-specific configuration files. Another mp3 tagger the world does not need. But I needed it. I have a large collection of old mp3 files. From times when tagging was mostly based on the file and folder names. When v2 tags where nowhere close.. == Overview Modes of operation: * The tagger will try to guess the tags from the full file path by applying a set of known formats. * The tagger will apply specific tags given on the command-line. * The tagger will match specific formats given on the command-line. * Arbitrary combination of the before-mentioned modes. The scanner supports recursive folder handling. Of course. Right now v2 tags are the focus. It is probably best to call this alpha ware. == Usage For my genre/artist/album/track.mp3 collection I use this invocation pattern: tagomatic --underscores --guess --recurse --showtags --errorstops --cleantags /media/music/ Then I add folder-specific .tagomatic or .format= files whenever an error occurs. == The .tagomatic file You can put the (long version) of the command line options into folder-specific .tagomatic files. These options are then valid only for this folder and sub-folders. This is useful - for example - if you want to switch guessing off for sub-folders. == The .format= files You can add files named .format= to sub-folders. They will be picked up by tagomatic and added as custom formats just as if you would have passed them on the command line using the --format option. Because the slash is not allowed in file names you have to replace it with a vertical dash like in this example: .format=%g|%a|%b|%n - %t.mp3 These formats are valid only for this folder and sub-folders. == Copyright Copyright (c) 2009 Daniel Lukic.
