About
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
A radio automation based on MPD. Larigira will sit right to your mpd player and
|
|
will keep your playlist never empty. It will also manage a db of "events", so
|
|
that you can schedule shows, play jingles every X minutes, etc.
|
|
|
|
Software stack
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
* MPD, of course
|
|
* python2
|
|
* gevent as an async framework
|
|
* flask to provide web interface and rpc
|
|
* ejdb as an embedded database
|
|
|
|
Why? (aka design features)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Reinventing a player is a bad idea. MPD provides an eccellent base.
|
|
|
|
Separating the player from "action loops" makes it easy to work on this. For
|
|
example, you can stop larigira for some minutes, and the audio will keep
|
|
playing. It also means that you can easily replace specific parts of your radio
|
|
automation.
|
|
|
|
The "continous playing" part is separated from the "events" part. ``larigira``
|
|
can be run to perform one, the other, or both.
|
|
|
|
The "audio generation" part can be used separately by any script that you like.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Just run ``python setup.py install``. It will, of course, also work in a
|
|
virtualenv. Apart from running an MPD server, there is no additional setup.
|
|
|
|
You will find some command in your PATH now; they all begin with ``larigira``,
|
|
so the usual ``<TAB><TAB>`` is a good way to explore them ;)
