bionic (1) stxdb.1.gz

Name

       stxdb — A/V file database

Syntax

       stxdb [-MSWal] [-A dir] [-V volid] [-f file] [-o opt]

Options

       The  options may seem weird, because they are flags, not commands. This means that the order of execution
       is always "Load database", "Add directory", "Save database", "Show database". You just specify _which_ of
       these you want to run, and if it's all four.

       -A dir Directory which should be added to the database.

       -M     Mount the directory given by -A before adding.

       -S     Save the database. (Not specifying this would make for a dry run.)

       -V volid
              Tag the directory with volid in the database.

       -W     Show database.

       -a     Show only artists.

       -f file
              Use specified file as database.

       -l     Show only albums.

       -o opt Set arbitrary option.

Examples

       Examples for common operations:

       Adding a CD to the database, using -M to make stxdb mount it:

            stxdb -A /mnt -MSV "Private Collection CD #34"

       Adding a directory (w/o mount!):

            stxdb -A /bla/dir -SV "Private Collection CD #35"

       Show database:

            stxdb -W

       Rebuild database:

            stxdb -S
