Mopidy extension for controlling Mopidy from MPD clients
Project description
Mopidy extension for controlling Mopidy from MPD clients.
MPD stands for Music Player Daemon, which is also the name of the original MPD server project. Mopidy does not depend on the original MPD server, but implements the MPD protocol itself, and is thus compatible with most clients built for the original MPD server
Maintainer wanted
Mopidy-MPD is currently kept on life support by the Mopidy core developers. It is in need of a more dedicated maintainer.
If you want to be the maintainer of Mopidy-Local, please:
Make 2-3 good pull requests improving any part of the project.
Read and get familiar with all of the project’s open issues.
Send a pull request removing this section and adding yourself as the “Current maintainer” in the “Credits” section below. In the pull request description, please refer to the previous pull requests and state that you’ve familiarized yourself with the open issues.
As a maintainer, you’ll be given push access to the repo and the authority to make releases to PyPI when you see fit.
Installation
Install by running:
python3 -m pip install Mopidy-MPD
See https://mopidy.com/ext/mpd/ for alternative installation methods.
Configuration
Before starting Mopidy, you must add configuration for Mopidy-MPD to your Mopidy configuration file:
[mpd] hostname = ::
The following configuration values are available:
mpd/enabled: If the MPD extension should be enabled or not.
mpd/hostname: Which address the MPD server should bind to. This can be a network address or the path toa Unix socket:
127.0.0.1: Listens only on the IPv4 loopback interface (default).
::1: Listens only on the IPv6 loopback interface.
0.0.0.0: Listens on all IPv4 interfaces.
::: Listens on all interfaces, both IPv4 and IPv6.
unix:/path/to/unix/socket.sock: Listen on the Unix socket at the specified path. Must be prefixed with unix:.
mpd/port: Which TCP port the MPD server should listen to. Default: 6600.
mpd/password: The password required for connecting to the MPD server. If blank, no password is required. Default: blank.
mpd/max_connections: The maximum number of concurrent connections the MPD server will accept. Default: 20.
mpd/connection_timeout: Number of seconds an MPD client can stay inactive before the connection is closed by the server. Default: 60.
mpd/zeroconf: Name of the MPD service when published through Zeroconf. The variables $hostname and $port can be used in the name. Set to an empty string to disable Zeroconf for MPD. Default: Mopidy MPD server on $hostname
mpd/command_blacklist: List of MPD commands which are disabled by the server. By default this blacklists listall and listallinfo. These commands don’t fit well with many of Mopidy’s backends and are better left disabled unless you know what youare doing.
mpd/default_playlist_scheme: The URI scheme used if the server cannot find a backend appropriate for creating a playlist from the given tracks. Default: m3u
Limitations
This is a non exhaustive list of MPD features that Mopidy doesn’t support. Items on this list will probably not be supported in the near future.
Only a single password is supported. It gives all-or-nothing access.
Toggling of audio outputs is not supported
Channels for client-to-client communication are not supported
Stickers are not supported
Crossfade is not supported
Replay gain is not supported
stats does not provide any statistics
decoders does not provide information about available decoders
The following items are currently not supported, but should be added in the near future:
tagtypes is not supported
Live update of the music database is not supported
