bettered 1.1.0

Automatic helper for redacted better.php.

BetteRED

Introduction

bettered automatically transcodes a given path of flac files to mp3 files based on desired quality (MP3 V0 or MP3 320) and creates a corresponding torrent file with a specified announce url.

bettered uses Moe to initialize and read the configuration, and the plugin moe_transcode to handle the transcoding logic.

Installation:

1. Install bettered from PyPI

I recommend using pipx to install bettered. $ pipx install bettered

If you don't care about having bettered and it's dependencies (mainly Moe) in an isolated environment, you can just install normally with pip as well. $ pip install bettered

2. Install mktorrent

mktorrent must be built from source unless your package manager includes >=v1.1

$ git clone https://github.com/Rudde/mktorrent.git
$ cd mktorrent
$ sudo make install

3. Install ffmpeg

https://ffmpeg.org/download.html

Run ffmpeg -h to ensure it's in your path.

4. Configure

Your configuration file should exist in "~/.config/bettered/config.toml" and should look like the following:

enable_plugins = ["transcode"]

[transcode]
transcode_path = "~/transcode"

[bettered]
torrent_file_path = "~/torrents"
announce_url = "https://flacsfor.me/213/announce"

[move]
album_path = "{album.artist} - {album.title} ({album.year})"

transcode_path is where the transcoded albums will be placed. torrent_file_path is where the .torrent files will be places announce_url your announce url for your tracker of choice. album_path is the format of the album path. This will also have the bitrate automatically appended. See the Moe docs for more information on customizing this value.

5. Run

bettered -h
