Playlister

A command-line tool for reading your iTunes/Music.app playlists.

Features

• list List all of your playlists. Optionally using a nice nesting format, to be easier to read.
• md Spit out a single playlist as a Markdown file. Use -r to include ratings on the five-star scale, and -l to interactively attach links to each item. Links are stored in a database (in ~/.playlister/) for reuse the next time you run md -l.
• generate Spit out all your playlists as Markdown files, hierarchically-organized, in ./playlists/ Can non-interactively add links, where present in the database (-l), and optionally track the whole thing in git (-g), including fetch/pull/push, if you configure the git repository for it. (Note: doesn't handle merge conflicts.)
• db Manage the database. For now, only includes a helper to wipe the whole thing; in the future, would like to add features for managing single entries.

Getting Started

1. git clone https://github.com/grey280/Playlister.git
2. cd Playlister
3. swift build -c release
4. cp .build/release/playlister /usr/local/bin/playlister
