'''Custom tags'''<br />
==Default pattern==
AOM still supports custom tags to simplify rules. Custom tags works as follows:
* Specified like a normal tag but in all uppercase, for example "?G".
* If any subpart of the tag is empty, the whole tag is skipped, except:
* If the tag contains ?if statements, these are not checked if they're empty.


With this you could simplify the group rule, for example you could write it:
'''ATTENTION!''' The default pattern has a bug. See below for instructions to fix it.
* Using ?if: "?if(lg<><nowiki>''</nowiki>, '['+lg+']', <nowiki>''</nowiki>)" -> "?G"
<pre>set('atitle', at('x-jat'))
* Simplest form: "[?lg]" -> "?G"
if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('en')))
* More advanced example: "?if(lg<><nowiki>''</nowiki>, '['+lg']', if(sg<><nowiki>''</nowiki>, '['+sg']', '[RAW]'))" -> "?G"
if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', A.Name))
set('atitle', replace(atitle, '\', ' '))
set('etitle', et('en'))
if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('x-jat')))
if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('ja')))
if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', E.Name))
set('etitle', replace(etitle, '\', ' '))
set('version', if(F.Version&gt;1, 'v'+F.Version, ''))
set('mepno', max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount))
set('epno', padl(E.EpisodeNo, max(1, length(mepno)), '0') + version)
if(E.TypeId=2, set('epno', 'S'+epno))
if(E.TypeId=3, set('epno', 'C'+epno))
if(E.TypeId=4, set('epno', 'T'+epno))
if(E.TypeId=5, set('epno', 'P'+epno))
if(E.TypeId=6, set('epno', 'O'+epno))
set('groupname', if(G, if(length(G.Shortname)>0, G.Shortname, G.Name), 'no group'))
set('groupname', if(length(groupname)>0, '['+groupname+']'))
set('groupname', replace(groupname, '\', ' '))
set('crc', if(H, H.Crc32, F.Crc))
if(length(crc)>0, set('crc', '('+uc(crc)+')'))
set('filename', limit(limit(limit(atitle, 90) + ' - ' + epno + ' - ' + etitle, 200) + ' ' + groupname, 235) + crc + '.' + F.FileType)
set('filename', replace(filename, '*', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '/', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '?', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, ':', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '"', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '&lt;', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '&gt;', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '|', ' '))
set('filename', replace(filename, '`', "'"))
set('filename', replace(filename, '  ', ' '))
filename
</pre>
'''ATTENTION!''' The default pattern has a bug. To fix it, find the following line:
<pre>set('mepno', max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount))</pre>
And replace it with:
<pre>set('mepno', if(E.TypeId=1, max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount), E.EpisodeTypeCount))</pre>

|start(text, find)||boolean||Checks if '''find''' matches the start of '''text'''.<br>Example: start('1999', '199') = true
|-valign="top"
|starti(text, find)||boolean||Checks if '''find''' matches the start of '''text'''. Case insensitive.<br>Example: start('1999', '199') = true
|-valign="top"
|substr(text, start[, length])||string||Alias for copy.
|-valign="top"
|tc(text)||string||Converts '''text''' to title case.<br>Example: tc('HELLO THERE!') = 'Hello There!'
|-valign="top"
|trim(text)||string||Removes leading and trailing spaces from '''text'''.
|-valign="top"
|uc(text)||string||Converts '''text''' to upper case.<br>Example: uc('abcd') = 'ABCD'

Note that all tags are greedy, that means that ?ep2 will always be read as ep2, never as ?e or ?ep. If you need a tag to not be greedy you can use ?out(ep).


'''Function tags'''<br />
==Operators==
 
===Arithmetic operators===
{|
{|
|?if()||If statement.<br /> Example: ?if(a=b, 'equal', 'not equal')
|A+B || returns A plus B
|-
|-
|?lc()||Converts the supplied parameter to lower case.<br />Example ?lc(crc)
|A-B || returns A minus B
|-
|-
|?out()||Returns the specified variable.<br />Example ?out(crc)
|A*B || returns A multiplied B
|-
|-
|?sc()||Converts the supplied parameter to sentence case.<br />Example ?sc(a)
|A/B || returns A divided by B
|-
|?set()||Declares a new tag with the specified value, same as custom tags internally.<br />Example ?set(temp, 'text')
|-
|?tc()||Converts the supplied parameter to title case.<br />Example ?tc(a)
|-
|?uc()||Converts the supplied parameter to upper case.<br />Example ?uc(crc)

'''Comparison operators'''<br />
===Comparison operators===
{|
{|
|A=B||true if A equals B
|A=B||true if A equals B
Line 131: Line 510:

===Logical operators===
{|
|A and B||true if both A and B are true
|A and B||true if both A and B are true
|-
|-
|A or B||true if either A or B is true
|A or B||true if either A or B is true

==File managers==
==Constant expressions==
File managers are used to automatically manage file renaming / removing and adding / updating files in your mylist.
There are two ways to specify string literals:<br>
&#39;text&#39;<br>
or<br>
"text"


'''Source paths'''<br />
Number literals are simply written as numbers:<br>
Each file manager can have multiple source folders. File managers can be set to search these folders recursively or only the folder itself for files.
1234<br>
While it's possible adding a source path to multiple file managers is strongly discouraged.
<br>
There are also boolean constants:<br>
true<br>
false


'''Rename pattern'''<br />
==Comments==
Each file manager can have 1 renaming pattern. To use multiple patterns you need to specify multiple patterns. The rename pattern can contain a part of a path or a full path to indicate where the file should be stored. The path part of a rename might be ignored under certain circumstances however, see below.
Start a line with // if you wish to write a comment:<br>
<pre>// This is a comment</pre>


'''Target paths'''<br />
==File managers==
A file manager can have one or more target paths for moving files. If no target path is specified the folder the file was found in will be used instead. If there are multiple target paths the file manager will try to figure out where the file has the most related files. This is determined by a) the anime the file belongs to and b) the anime group the file belongs to. If there's not enough space available on the target drive it'll check the next preferred target if there's enough space and so on. If no space is available in any target path the file will be renamed in it's current location, but with any path part of the file removed, aka the filename part of the rename pattern will be used but the file will remain in the folder it was found in.
File managers are used to automatically manage file renaming / removing and adding / updating files in your MyList.
 
'''Only move known files'''<br />
This will make the file manager ignore files which are not in AniDB, they'll be visible on the known files page, but they will never be moved or renamed.
 
'''Automatically remove deleted files'''<br />
This will make the file manager remove files it can't find anymore from the known files page. This rule ignores files stored on removable media.
 
'''Don't remove files if the volume can't be found'''<br />
This will prevent the file manager from removing files it can't find when the whole volume is gone, this rule would for example prevent your known files from being cleared if your network cable is unplugged or a hdd is disconnected.
 
'''Add new files to AniDB'''<br />
This will make the file manager automatically add found files to your mylist.
 
'''Automatically update the storage field of mylist entries'''<br />
This will make the file manager automatically update the storage field of mylist entries based on the volume it's stored on. This field currently only works for files on a removable storage such as a DVD. The label used will be the label of the removable media, eg. DVD #013.
 
'''Automatically mark found files as OnHDD or OnRemovable in mylist'''<br />
This will make the file manager update your mylist to OnHDD if the file was found on a HDD or Network drive, or OnRemovable if the file is on a CD/DVD.
 
'''Automatically mark removed files as Deleted in mylist'''<br />
This will make the file manager update your mylist to indicate the file has been deleted if removed by the above rule.
