This manual page documents briefly the simadb_cli commands.
simadb_cli is a command line interface to get and edit users blacklist database used with MPD_sima. The default database file (see the section called “FILES”) can be overridden if you want.
Adding to black list. You can add a single
track, an album or an artist to the black list. The element to
black list is chosen from the currently playing track. Use
--bl_curr_trk to prevent simadb_cli to queue this
track, --bl_curr_alb or --bl_curr_art respectively for the album and the
artist.
Remember you need access to your MPD server to retrieve information to black list. Defaults are localhost:6600 or found in environment variables but you may set it up from command line:
simadb_cli --bl_curr_art -S mympd.example.org
To black list a specific artist (not
currently playing) you can use --bl_ar="Artist name to black list".
The program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes ("-"). A summary of options is included below.
-h, --helpPrint help and exit.
--versionPrint version and exit.
--bl_art=artist_nameUse to black list artist_name. simadb_cli is checking artist_name is actually in MPD music library (cf -S and -P options to set MPD host/address if necessary).
If artist_name is not found the script print out a list of matching artists.
--bl_curr_trk | --bl_curr_art | --bl_curr_albUse to black list the currently playing track|artist|album. You need access to your MPD server, use -S and -P to set MPD host/address if necessary.
-d db_file, --dbfile=db_fileUse the specific file db_file as database.
Default is too use XDG_DATA_HOME (see the section called “FILES”).
--purge_histPurge history, you may supply an alternative DB file with --dbfile option.
--remove_bl=row_idUse to remove a black list entry. To get the row_id to suppress use --view_bl option.
--view_blGet all entries in the black list.
-P mpd_port, --port=mpd_portUse the specific port number mpd_port on MPD server. This overrides MPD_PORT environment variable.
Default is 6600.
-S mpd_host, --host=mpd_hostUse the specific host mpd_host as MPD server.mpd_host can be an IP or a fully qualified domain name as long as your system can resolve it. This overrides MPD_HOST environment variable.
Default is localhost.
