plaintext_playlist_py

Library to parse plaintext-playlist files

This is mostly for personal usage, making this installable as a library means I can use it across code/projects/scripts

Also includes some ID3/music scripts:

• bin/id3stuff - a personal opinionated script to set ID3 metadata on mp3 files using mutagen -- prompts me to set the arist/album/album artist for groups of collections by scanning my music directory

• bin/linkmusic - a rsync-like script which creates hardlinks for every file in my playlists into a separate directory (e.g., ~/.local/share/musicsync/). Then, I use syncthing to sync all the songs in my playlists across my computers/onto my phone, without syncing my entire music collection

• bin/import-music which calls out to beets and handles fetching metadata/converting/calling id3stuff and moving music into my collection. You can see my config for that here
