The absubmit
plugin lets you submit acoustic analysis results to the
AcousticBrainz server.
The absubmit
plugin requires the streaming_extractor_music program to run. Its source can be found on GitHub, and while it is possible to compile the extractor from source, AcousticBrainz would prefer if you used their binary (see the AcousticBrainz FAQ).
The absubmit
plugin also requires requests, which you can install using pip by typing:
pip install requests
After installing both the extractor binary and requests you can enable the plugin absubmit
in your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`).
Type:
beet absubmit [QUERY]
to run the analysis program and upload its results.
The plugin works on music with a MusicBrainz track ID attached. The plugin
will also skip music that the analysis tool doesn't support.
streaming_extractor_music currently supports files with the extensions
mp3

To configure the plugin, make a absubmit:
section in your configuration file. The available options are:
- auto: Analyze every file on import. Otherwise, you need to use the
beet absubmit
command explicitly. Default:no
- extractor: The absolute path to the streaming_extractor_music binary.
Default: search for the program in your
$PATH
