✨ NAME ✨

mymp-script β€” the myMPD command line tool that runs your scripts, bestie πŸ’… welcome to the mymp-script man page, she's small but she works


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mymp-script <uri> <partition> <scriptname> [arguments]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

Okay so picture this: mymp-script is a lil commandline tool β€” genuinely tiny, no cap β€” that exists for exactly one job, and that job is executing myMPD scripts. That's it. That's the whole vibe. She's not doing extra, she's not doing too much, she's just a small dedicated queen who connects, picks a partition, and runs your script. Iconic behaviour, honestly ✨


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

Not me calling these "options" when they're literally the things you pass in order, but slay, we're rolling with the original heading 🫢 Here's everything you can hand her:

  • uri β€” the myMPD listening uri, like for example "https://localhost" 🌈 that's the address she's gonna talk to.
  • partition β€” the MPD partition, like for example "default" πŸ’– pick your lane.
  • scriptname β€” the script you want to execute. And here's the cute trick: use - and she'll read the script from stdin instead πŸ‘‘ very main character of her.
  • arguments β€” optional, and yes they're space separated key=value pairs πŸ“ these get used to fill the arguments table in the Lua script. Optional! So don't stress if you've got none.
Lowkey reminder: arguments is the optional one. The first three? She needs those, bestie 😭

πŸ’€ BUGS πŸ’€

If you find a bug (and like, we hope you don't, but if you do πŸ™ˆ) please report it at https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/issues β€” the whole point is to tell them so it gets fixed, so go do that, bestie.
