💖 pipewire-pulse-module-native-protocol-tcp(7) 💖

okay bestie, so this is the Miscellaneous Information Manual page for pipewire-pulse-module-native-protocol-tcp(7) and it is so much shorter than you'd think — literally four lines of actual content and yet it's iconic. sit down, sip ur matcha, let's go 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

pipewire-pulse-module-native-protocol-tcp — PulseAudio TCP Protocol 🫶

like... that's it. that's the name. it's giving "PulseAudio, but over TCP." no cap.

🎀 MODULE NAME 🎀

module-native-protocol-tcp

that's the actual module you load, bestie — the manpage title is the long hyphenated form and the module name is the short one. yes this is confusing, yes I also think it's rude, but it is what it is 💅

🌸 MODULE OPTIONS 🌸

only two. TWO. a whole entire manpage with two options. we love a low-maintenance module.

  • port — the TCP port number 🌈 like, which door number the TCP thing is knocking on.
  • listen — the address to listen on 👑 i.e. which face/interface it's gonna be sitting there and waiting for connections on.

and that's... genuinely it. no hidden extras, no secret bonus flags, nothing hiding in a weird corner. the vibe check passed and there was nothing else in the room 💀

⚠️ quick heads-up bestie: this page does not spell out any defaults, any environment variables, any exit statuses, any files, or any gotchas. so I'm absolutely not gonna make any up, because inventing manpage lore is not the move 🙈 what you see above is the whole entire snack. nom.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

ngl there is no SEE ALSO section on this page at all. zero cross-references. it is a lone wolf, main character energy, no entourage 💜

🌟 the cute sign-off 🌟

so that's the whole thing! you just read the entire pipewire-pulse-module-native-protocol-tcp(7) page, section 7, from the PipeWire project, version 1.6.11 🧚 and it came to you via that big Miscellaneous Information Manual situation at the top of the page. slay, honestly. you understood TCP protocol things today. that's growth. periodt 💅✨🎀
