# autoalbum
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A bulk renaming utility for audio files.
|
|
|
|
It attempts to find predetermined patterns amongst the file names.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Usage:
|
|
autoalbum [options] [--] DIRECTORY
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
--prefix STRING Prepend all output filenames with STRING
|
|
--auto-prefix Prepend all output filenames with the directory name
|
|
--digits NUM Number of digits in track numbers (default 0 == auto)
|
|
--extension STRING Filter by file extension (default 'mp3')
|
|
--dry-run Display proposed changes, then exit without applying
|
|
--interactive Interactive prompt to confirm changes (default)
|
|
--accept Apply changes without confirmation
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Alternatives
|
|
|
|
Renaming audio files is not a new problem. Renaming audio files based solely on filenames is a fraught endeavour. It's almost certainly better to use an ID3 renaming utility. For example `eyeD3 -Q --plugin=fixup --type=lp --dry-run --file-rename-pattern '$album_artist - ($release_date:year) $album - $track:num - $title ($artist)'`.
