mpc is a command line client for the Music Player Daemon (MPD).
Pretty nifty for controlling it in the command line and a bit of automation.


* Subcommands

The subcommands mainly deals with interacting with the server, letting you play and manage your music in the command line!

- =listall= lists all of the recognized files from the music directory.
- =play= play the playlist from the server.
- =add [FILES...]= add the files (that are in the music directory) to the playlist.


* Examples

Welp, it's a music daemon client so it should be simple enough.


** Randomized playlist

Even more useful if you schedule it.

#+begin_src shell
mpc listall | shuf --head-count 10 | xargs --replace='{}' mpc add '{}'
#+end_src
Update notebook on 2021-06-30 Notes on Nix, Flatpak, and mpc are here. They're just drafts and yet I added them into the Git worktree. I'll complete them someday ;p 2021-06-30 14:42:04 +00:00			`#+title: Command line: mpc`

Update wiki on various topics This update is too large, I made too many notes on stuff. Nonetheless, it is very nice to see progress. I've made note revisions on the following topics: - Learning - Writing - Various Linux-related stuff I've yet to start learning illustration but I'll be starting tomorrow for an update how do I keep in mind with those writings. There are still a lot of things to be processed from the backlog with yet more notes on learning but I keep having those perspectives whenever I practice so ehhh... Better have those than nothing? Furthermore, I've also updated the timestamp format. It is pretty simple to update all of the notes with a couple of `sed` calls. Aaaand, I've also changed the way how the assets stored with the folders only leaving it up for the generated files instead of enforcing it on every note. I create more visual aids and managing them is a pain for each note. This restructuring frees me of that burden. 2021-07-20 11:52:43 +00:00			`#+date_modified: "2021-07-19 21:55:37 +08:00"`
