collection option for adding rules to titles #1023

Closed silentnoodlemaster closed 1 year ago

silentnoodlemaster commented 1 year ago

Would love an option where i could use similar methods that I could with the launch options but for titles,

if metadata.txt would look like:

collection: cool games
regex: start.*\.sh
title: "{file.dir}"

and the library would be:

<Library>
    <Game Name> 
        start.sh
    <Another Game>
        start.sh

then I would not need to add metadata for each game separately

Hi! A single game may consist of multiple files, which may be in separate directories, so I'm afraid the metadata file wouldn't work like this.

Thanks for clarifying, I suppose my laziness has to be defeated in some other way
