libmpd-haskell: a client library for MPD
About
libmpd-haskell is a pure Haskell client library for MPD, the music playing daemon. Requires MPD version 0.19 or later.
Getting
- Latest release on Hackage
git clone https://github.com/vimus/libmpd-haskell.git
Installation
With cabal-install, do
cd libmpd-haskell && cabal install
Usage
With GHCi:
> :set -XOverloadedStrings
> import Network.MPD
> withMPD $ lsInfo ""
Right [LsDirectory "Tool", LsDirectory "Tom Waits",...]
> withMPD $ add "Tom Waits/Big Time"
Right ["Tom Waits/Big Time/01 - 16 Shells from a Thirty-Ought-Six.mp3",...]

Changes
-
v0.10.0.1
- Fix build issues caused by removed symbols in dependencies
- Adjust
textbounds
-
v0.10.0.0 2021-01-25
- Require MPD version 0.19 or later.
- Breaking:
listnow takes aQueryinstead of aMaybe Artist, and lists the requested tag of songs matching the query. Migrate by changinglist $Tag Nothingtolist $Tag memptyandlist Album (Just "someone")tolist Album (Artist =? "someone"). - Breaking: song ranges now expressed with the
Rangedatatype rather than(Position,Position), allowing for partial ranges (see documentation). Migrate by changing(x,y)toRange x y. - Breaking: add missing
Metadataconstructors:AlbumSort,OriginalDate,Conductor,Work,Grouping,Label,MUSICBRAINZ_WORKID. - Breaking: add missing
Subsystemconstructors:PartitionS,NeighborS,MountS. - Breaking: add missing
ReplayGainModeconstructor:AutoMode. - Breaking: move
togglefromN.M.C.ExtensionstoN.M.(C|A).PlaybackControl. - Fix:
idlenow properly detects the following subsystems:PartitionS,StickerS,SubscriptionS,MessageS,NeighborS,MountS. - Remove deprecated functions:
(<&>)(use<>instead),updateId,addList,playlistAddList. - Add monadic versions of
searchAddandsearchAddPlcommands (previously only had applicative versions) - Fix: The server setting “single: oneshot” now sets
stSingletoTruerather than erroring out.
-
