# Eat It
Eat It is a plugin manager for mpv which allows you to declare what files you
want from git repos.

## Installing Eat It
To install Eat It simply put the `eatit.lua` file into your mpv scripts
directory (~/.config/mpv/scripts by default on linux). After you have done that
Eat It is installed, however it won't do anything without the `eatit-cfg.lua`,
which has to be placed in the root of your mpv config dir (~/.config/mpv by
default on linux).

Alternatively you can run these two commands:
```sh
curl -L https://git.squi.bid/eat-it/plain/eatit.lua -o ~/.config/mpv/scripts/eatit.lua
curl -L https://git.squi.bid/eat-it/plain/eatit-cfg.lua -o ~/.config/mpv/eatit-cfg.lua
```

## FAQ
Q: Where does the name 'Eat It' come from?  
A: The plugin manager eats all the useless files and keeps the ones you want,
*and Weird Al is a funny guy*  

## TODO
- define multiple files to be saved to different directories
- git not outputting to the logfile
- make an auto install script that can be put into a mpv config
