Description
The supysonic-clifolder subcommand manages your library folders, where the audio files are located. This
allows one to list, add, delete and scan the folders.
Examples
To add a new folder to your music library, you can do something like this:
$ supysonic-cli folder add MyLibrary /home/username/Music
Once you've added a folder, you will need to scan it:
$ supysonic-cli folder scan MyLibrary
The audio files residing in /home/username/Music will now appear under the MyLibrary folder on the
clients.
Name
supysonic-cli-folder - Supysonic folder management commands
Options
-h, --help
Shows help and exits. Depending on where this option appears it will either list the available
commands or display help for a specific command.
-f, --force
Force scan of already known files even if they haven't changed. Might be useful if an update to
supysonic adds new metadata to audio files.
--background
Scan in the background. Requires the supysonic-daemon to be running.
--foreground
Scan in the foreground, blocking the process while the scan is running.
If neither --background nor --foreground is provided, supysonic-cli will try to connect to the daemon to
initiate a background scan, falling back to a foreground scan if it isn't available.
