The agent name used in the `Agents` config option comes from the .ndp file name, not from the manifest. The Plugins UI showed the ID but never said what it was for, so renaming a plugin file silently breaks the config with only a Debug-level "Unknown agent ignored" line to go on. Add a caption under the ID in the Plugins UI, and list the accepted names alongside the rejected one in that log line. Related to navidrome/apple-music-plugin#14
This folder abstracts metadata lookup into "agents". Each agent can be implemented to get as much info as the external source provides, by using a granular set of interfaces (see interfaces).
A new agent must comply with these simple implementation rules:
- Implement the
AgentName()method. It just returns the name of the agent for logging purposes. - Implement one or more of the
*Retriever()interfaces. That's where the agent's logic resides. - Register itself (in its
init()function).
For an agent to be used it needs to be listed in the Agents config option (default is "deezer,lastfm"). The order dictates the priority of the agents
For a simple Agent example, look at the local_agent agent source code.
