ahinz / musicserver

Simple federated music server

Sound Server via Clojure

A Clojure app designed to allow coworkers to share music.

Usage

Listen to music with coworkers and friends! On the computer with speakers start the server:

$ lein run server

To add clients to the server have each client run something like:

$ lein run client --port 10100 --file example.txt \
                  --server http://localhost:3131 \
                  --bind <ip address of client>

Specify a file of "-" to read the playlist from stdin

The client will ping the server and start playing music. Any number of clients can connect to the music server. As songs complete each server is queried in a round-robin fashion for the next song to play.

Right now clients aren't really dynamic; you provide them a "--file" argument with that contains a bunch of paths to music files (separated by newlines)

Frontend

To run the webserver and see info about the currently playing songs compile the cljs files

$ lein cljsbuild once

And start a webserver

$ python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8888

And go to town!

To install the netty websocket server you'll have to compile it yourself since it isn't in maven central (yet? Just got to v1.0 on June 7th)

git clone https://github.com/mrniko/netty-socketio
mvn install

TODO

• Clients that exit wont get removed--- doesn't cause issues but is annoying

• Using mplayer to play the music to avoid downloading a ton of java junk. Probably should download java junk to avoid the dependency
