Add the ability to customize which metadata fields are displayed in TrackListView
reference: https://github.com/clangen/musikcube/issues/276
I have no use for ratings myself and they're kinda polluting the rather clean TUI (in my case). can we disable/enable tags?
Also can we have global tags (album duration, album year [yyyy], track count, etc.) in the album string:

Of course, they should be optional too. I think this would look great in musikcube
's style.
@clangen How about the additional information in the album strip? is it a won't do
?
This is what I meant if it was not clear (just ASCII manipulation, I didn't implement it or anything):
Ah, fair enough. Yeah, I want to implement something like this, I just need to figure out how I want to allow users to customize it. I'll re-open this ticket and change the title a bit.
I would love to see the year displayed :wink:. Other than that musikcube rocks.
Totally agreed with every other user's suggestions: this addition would be greate!
I am new to Musikcube but I agree that this feature would be great to have.
In addition to being able to see the year (and possibly other metadata for an album) it would be nice to have an option in "select sort order" to order albums based on the date in the metadata rather than alphabetically.
musikcube is great, with more optional columns-tags it would be awesome! it is also good to decide the width (in percentage) of each tag.
It would be great if fields could be controlled through a simple config.json
file - for example one line in the current .config/musikcube/settings.json
would do - of course listing the fields that are allowed in the manual. For example:
{
"TrackListFields" : ["number","track","year","rating","time","artist"]
}
And it could be stipulated that track number and name must be the first entries, or it could just be assumed and omitted in the config file so that track number (from tags) and name always appear at the beginning of the track entry in the list.
