A node js implementation of the MPD protocol. This library should make it easier to implement this protocol in your applications.
npm i mpd-server
'use strict';
// returns a function to create a mpd-server object
// this function expects a commandHandler function.
const mpd = require('mpd-server');
// The commandHandler function gets the command, arguments and connection from which it is requested.
// It needs to return an promise which returns a string value
function handleCommand(cmd, params, con) {
// the idle is handled internally and does not go through here
console.log('Command: ' + cmd);
return Promise.resolve('command response');
}
// create the mpd server given the function which will handle the commands
const mpdServer = mpd(handleCommand);
// start listening for connections
mpdServer.listen({ port: 6600 }, () => {
console.log('mpd running on ', mpdServer.server.address());
});
// register any callback your interested in
mpdServer.on('error', (err, s) => { console.log(err); });
// call this when a subsystem changes to notify the clients
server.systemUpdate('subsystem');- constructor (cmdHandler)
