💖 XMMS2-MLIB-UPDATER 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the General Commands Manual section, because xmms2-mlib-updater is a command and it lives here, and honestly? it's giving lowkey iconic background-worker energy. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

xmms2-mlib-updater — monitors directories and updates the media library 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

xmms2-mlib-updater

like. that's it. that's the whole synopsis. no flags, no args, she just goes. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so this manual page is basically a lil intro to the xmms2-mlib-updater command, short and sweet, no cap. real talk tho: this page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program simply does not have a manual page. so we made one. you're welcome. 🫶

here's the vibe: xmms2-mlib-updater monitors changes to the directory that you specified in the clients.mlibupdater.watch_dirs config property. it adds and removes the music files from the media library as they are added/removed from the file-system. so like, files come in, files go out, and she's keeping the library in sync the entire time, silently, like the main character she is. 😭🔥

to tell her which directory to watch, you run this command:

xmms2 server config clients.mlibupdater.watch_dirs DIRECTORY

that's the whole setup bestie. drop your DIRECTORY in there and she's watching it forever. 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

This program does not offer any options.

periodt. zero flags. she has nothing to configure at the command line and she doesn't want to. obsessed with the confidence honestly. 💀
