alfilldb

ALFILLDB(1)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					       ALFILLDB(1)

NAME

       alfilldb - Add/update information of music files in the AudioLink database

SYNOPSIS

       alfilldb [OPTION]... /path/to/songs/...

       alfilldb [OPTION]... --file=/path/to/song...

DESCRIPTION

       You can use this script to add or update information about your music files (MP3 or Ogg Vorbis) in the AudioLink database. This information
       will be used when you use the alsearch(1) program to search for particular music. This program is part of the audiolink(1) package.

       The path given for the location of individual files or directories must be an absolute path (paths with ~ are allowed). Relative paths are
       not allowed. See the "examples" section for more information.

       The user and password options have to be specified to gain access to the database. See the "more information" section in the audiolink(1)
       man page for the various ways in which you can specify them.

       Options that are used repetitively during different invocations of the program (like the user, password options) may be put in the config
       file. See the audiolink(1) man page for details on the config file.

OPTIONS

       --add-only
	   Only the information about new songs will be added to the database; information about existing songs will not be updated.

       --file=xxx
	   Works on just a single file instead of a directory. If this argument is given, the /path/to/dirs is not considered.	(You can have more
	   than one of these).

       --help
	   Brief usage information

       --host=xxx
	   Connects to the MySQL server on the given host. Default is localhost.

       --no-prompt
	   Don't prompt for anything. Songs which do not have information for mandatory fields (eg., song title) will not be added to the
	   database.

       --pass=xxx
	   Password for accessing the database

       --prompt=xxx
	   Prompt for input if there isn't enough information in the song (ID3 or Ogg Vorbis comments).

	   The parameters that prompt accepts are:

	   basic
	       Prompts just for the album name and the artist/band name

	   limited
	       Prompts for album, artist/band, genre and year fields

	   most
	       Prompt for all the fields except the Male, Female Artists and the Track number

	   paranoid
	       Prompt for all the fields, including Male Artist (1/2), Female Artist (1/2), Track Number.

       -s, --na
	   Simulate or no-act mode: doesn't update the database.

       --upd-only
	   Only entries in the database will be updated from the input the user gives. Make sure you don't use the --no-prompt option along with
	   this one... else you won't get anything done!

       --upd-song
	   Update the tags in the file, ie, ID3 for MP3, comments for Ogg Vorbis.

       --user=xxx
	   Username for accessing the database

       --verbose
	   Displays some extra information while processing files

EXAMPLES

       "alfilldb --add-only /home/user/tmp/songs/"
	   This invocation will scan the /home/user/tmp/songs directory recursively for new songs only. Songs already existing in the database
	   will not be considered.

       "alfilldb --upd-only --prompt=most ~/tmp/songs/"
	   This invocation will scan the $(HOME)/tmp/songs directory recursively for the current user for incomplete information in the database.

       "alfilldb ~user/tmp/songs/"
	   This invocation will scan the /home/user/tmp/songs folder for music files; will add new entries to the database as well as update the
	   existing ones.

       "alfilldb --file=~/tmp/songs/somefile.ogg --file=~/tmp/songs/otherfile.mp3"
	   This invocation will just add (or update) information about the files $(HOME)/tmp/songs/somefile.ogg and
	   $(HOME)/tmp/songs/otherfile.mp3.

CAVEATS

       If the --prompt option is not specified, alfilldb will just prompt for the title of the song being processed. The title information is
       asked only if the ID3 tag or the Vorbis comment doesn't contain the title. This behavior can be overriden by the --no-prompt option, and in
       this case, the entry for the file will not be made, since the song title is a mandatory field for storing song information in the datbase.

       If neither of --add-only or --upd-only are specified, the default action is to add new entries as well as update existing ones.

       If the ID3 tags or Vorbis comments for a file were updated after entries were made in the AudioLink database, they will not be reflected in
       the database. If you want to maintain consistency, it is advised that you keep the database updated (by using the --upd-only option) and
       then update the ID3 tag in the MP3 or the comment in the Ogg Vorbis file (by running alfilldb with the --upd-only option).
