Hack:MPDGajim

From Music Player Daemon Community Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Working name for Hack: MPD2Gajim (a terribly creative name)

Homepage: http://orloglausa.net/

Creator: Alexander "Turophile" Stanley

Language: Python

Requires: See imports (dbus, mpdclient2, the rest should just be in python)

License: New BSD license. (Yes, it's in the code too.)

Notes: Contact me if you get stuck?

Version: 0.1.1.1

Change Log:

  • 0.1.1 -> 0.1.1.1
    • Added musical notes around music, minor reformatting of status print out.
    • Fixed the stop glitch (set a string where it should've been an int, now it's an int).
  • 0.1 -> 0.1.1
    • Removed the system hammering it
    • Setup room for "again"
    • Added "Paused" status.
    • Added "Stopped" status.
    • Neatened Code (slightly).
    • Daemonised (stops you needing to)


Okay. This version is working and NOT hammering my contacts. I am now using it, but again, no warranty is offered. This is out there for anyone who wishes to use it. Again, using it is your responsibility, as the license states, use it at your own risk.


Features:

  • Uses mpdclient2 (so whatever it has, this can! - and more!)
    • stopped support (says "Music Stopped.")
    • pausing supported (adds "[Paused]" to the beginning of your track)
    • Format is presently "Artist - Title" with [Paused] before that.

TODO (Feel free to add/append to!)

  • Other DBUS IMs (shouldn't be too bad ...)
  • Again feature (for repeated tracks). I had a hack at this and just tore it out when it annoyed me. This is always a problem. As evident by the old_a and tmp_a values.
