💖 SUPYSONIC-DAEMON(1) — the Supysonic manual, but make it bestie edition 💖

okay so this is the page for supysonic-daemon, living in the Supysonic manual. sit down, grab a boba, we're doing this 🧋✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

supysonic-daemon — it's the Supysonic background daemon, bestie. that's the whole vibe.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

supysonic-daemon

no flags, no arguments, no drama. she just is. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

supysonic-daemon is an optional non-exiting process, and the whole point of her is that she gets run in the background. she's there to handle:

  • background scans
  • library changes detection
  • the jukebox mode (that's audio played on the server hardware, iykyk)

and here's the slay part: if supysonic-daemon is running when you kick off a manual scan with supysonic-cli, then the scan gets run by the daemon process in the background instead of running in the foreground. main character behavior, honestly. this daemon is also what makes the web UI scan feature work at all. 🫶

and with proper configuration, supysonic-daemon also lets authorized users play audio on the machine's hardware, using their client as a remote control. it's giving "your phone is now a very fancy remote." 💅
