Fuzzy Search Plugin | ||
============= | ||
|
||
The ``fuzzy_search`` plugin provides a command that search your library using | ||
fuzzy pattern matching. This can be useful if you want to find a track with complicated characters in the title. | ||
|
||
First, enable the plugin named ``fuzzy_search`` (see :doc:`/plugins/index`). | ||
You'll then be able to use the ``beet fuzzy`` command:: | ||
|
||
$ beet fuzzy Vareoldur | ||
Sigur Rós - Valtari - Varðeldur | ||
|
||
The command has several options that resemble those for the ``beet list`` | ||
command (see :doc:`/reference/cli`). To choose an album instead of a single | ||
track, use ``-a``; to print paths to items instead of metadata, use ``-p``; and | ||
to use a custom format for printing, use ``-f FORMAT``. | ||
|
||
The ``-t NUMBER`` option lets you specify how precise the fuzzy match has to be | ||
(default is 0.7). To make a fuzzier search, try ``beet fuzzy -t 0.5 Varoeldur``. | ||
A value of ``1`` will show only perfect matches and a value of ``0`` will match everything. |
