✨ NAME ✨

songrec — an open-source Shazam client for Linux, written in Rust. yes, Rust. we love a systems-language moment 🦀👑

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

songrec [-v|--verbose]... [-h|--help] [-V|--version] [subcommands]

like, you can stack the -vs, you can ask for help, you can check the version, and you can call a subcommand. that's the whole vibe check 🦋

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

songrec is an open-source Shazam client for Linux, written in Rust. that's it, that's the description, and honestly? iconic. no notes, periodt ✨

---

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

• -v, --verbose — turn the logs up, bestie. the levels stack:
  • -v: sets the log level to DEBUG instead of INFO for SongRec-related messages
  • -vv: sets the log level to DEBUG for SongRec-related messages and INFO for library-related messages
  • -vvv: sets the log level to TRACE
• -h, --help — print help 💖
• -V, --version — print version

ngl the -v ladder is giving main character energy. three whole tiers of "tell me EVERYTHING" 😭🔍

🦋 SUBCOMMANDS 🦋

• songrec-listen(1) — run as a command-line program listening to the microphone and printing recognized songs to stdout, exposing current song info via MPRIS
• songrec-recognize(1) — recognize one song from a sound file or microphone and print its info.
• songrec-audio-file-to-recognized-song(1) — generate a Shazam fingerprint from a sound file, perform song recognition towards Shazam's servers and print obtained information to the standard output.
• songrec-microphone-to-recognized-song(1) — recognize a currently playing song using the microphone and print obtained information to the standard output
• songrec-audio-file-to-fingerprint(1) — generate a Shazam fingerprint from a sound file, and print it to the standard output.
• songrec-fingerprint-to-recognized-song(1) — take a data-URI Shazam fingerprint, perform song recognition towards Shazam's servers and print obtained information to the standard output.
• songrec-gui(1) — the default action. display a GUI. 🖥️💖
• songrec-gui-norecording(1) — launch the GUI, but don't recognize audio through the microphone as soon as it is launched (rather than expecting the user to click on a button).

iykyk: songrec-gui is the default one, so if you're a "just give me the window" girlie, that's your girl. and songrec-gui-norecording is for when you want the GUI to chill at launch instead of immediately going mic-mode 💀🎤
