💅 man(1) — mympd-config, the myMPD config tool 🎀

okay so bestie, you opened the mympd-config man page and it's giving "tiny tool, big job" ✨ this is the little commandline bestie that sets up your basic myMPD settings so you don't have to go poking around config files like a raccoon at 2am. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

mympd-config — the mympd configuration tool 🌸

lowkey the whole personality right there. it configures myMPD. that's the gig. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

mympd-config [options...] [SETTING VALUE ...]

so it's flags, then optionally a setting name and its value. very demure, very mindful. 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

mympd-config is a small commandline tool to configure basic myMPD settings. that's it, that's the whole vibe — small tool, basic settings, no drama, no cap ✨

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

bestie, read the flags carefully, because there is a plot twist at the end and i need you to be seated for it 🙈

  • -a </var/cache/mympd> — sets the path to the myMPD cache directory 💖
  • -b </usr/bin/mympd> — sets the path to the myMPD executable, aka where the actual binary lives 🧚
  • -c </var/lib/mympd/config> — sets the path to the myMPD config directory 🎀
  • -s <0|1> — picks how myMPD runs 👑
    • 0 = myMPD runs with a normal linux user account
    • 1 = myMPD is started with a systemd private user
  • -a </var/lib/mympd> — sets the path to the myMPD working directory 🌈
💀 okay so yes — -a shows up twice, once for the cache directory and once for the working directory. i did not make the rules, i am simply reporting them exactly as they are written. go off, king. 🔥
  • SETTING VALUE — these are the actual settings you can pass in, and the valid ones are the environment variables respected by mympd -c ✨
