Custom Folder Pathing #201

Closed spencerthayer closed 4 years ago

spencerthayer commented 7 years ago

Is it possible to customize folder paths from ./ARTIST_NAME - ALBUM_NAME/SONG_NUMBER - SONG_TITLE.mp3 to something like ./ARTIST_NAME/ALBUM_NAME - SONG_NUMBER - SONG_TITLE.mp3?

I just discovered SoundScrape like 15min ago, but I'm digging into the code and it's hard coded, so unless you fork it and change it, it doesn't seem possible out the box. At least there is not option in the parser to set an expression to do so.

Do you remember what line number the path is it specified in?

There are some options here. You can provide the destination directory to place files. Within that destination directory, you can use the artist name provided by SoundCloud to create a sub-directory and place files there. What you're suggesting is providing more robust naming schemes. That's a nice feature request, but it's a bit out of scope of this tool. There are many other tools for taking files and allowing you to do bulk renaming. This type of functionality is better left to those tools rather than bloating the code here.
