Use template string to replace regex

[nanozuki]

Regular expression is too hard to write, use and debugging, even to exprienced developers!
So I want to use template string to configure episode to replace reguar expression.

episode = ひぐらしのなく頃に 業 EP{ep}.mp4

for more complex example:

episode = [dantalian字幕组][化物語][{ep}][1080p].mp4

for sp:

odd taxi SP{sp}.mkv

@laxect
Do we need user to write whole name string, include extension name?
(or just filename or just substring)

is ep or sp some sort of predefined syntax?

ep for episode number, sp for special episode number.

For example, episode = ひぐらしのなく頃に 業 EP{ep}.mp4 will match ひぐらしのなく頃に 業 EP01.mp4, ひぐらしのなく頃に 業 EP05.mp4.

well then consider using episode instead of ep, special instead of sp?

"ep" and "sp" is common abbr in this situation and already used in dantalian.

What about support template without droping regex support?

What about support template without dropping regex support?

Considering backward compatibility, the support of regex will continue. I am thinking what is the priority if template string and regex are configured both? To report an error is also a choice in this case.

Just use regex and print a warn?
