Allows you to play Digitally Imported (and other streams in that station network) in the console.
Pulls the catalog for Digitally Imported (or the other service) on run, parses it, and presents you with a list of available stations with the description cropped to the size of the terminal. Uses fzf or pick (automatically, in that order) to choose a stream, then calls mplayer or mpv to play the stream.
If you would rather use rofi as a GUI picker, put --gui as the FIRST argument
on the commandline.
By default it currently invokes mplayer or, if mplayer is not installed (looking
at you, Debian bookworm), mpv in REALLY QUIET mode. If you have
cava on your $PATH, it will wait a moment, then display cava. Quitting
cava or pressing any key will kill the background instance of mplayer.
If you would rather use MPD, invoke each script with --mpd to have it pipe the results to the end of the current MPD playlist and play it.
If you would rather pass the URL of the stream to something like my stream_to_mpd.sh utility, then invoke the script with --url to get the URL. Example usage:
stream_to_mpd.sh --mpd --host myseekretpassword@mympdhost $(listentodi --url)
NOTE If you have issues with GUI option in an Openbox/etc menu, please try:
/bin/bash -c 'stream_to_mpd.sh --mpd --host myseekretpassword@mympdhost $(listentodi --url)'
as the command to call.
If you were wishing to choose using rofi and use stream_to_mpd.sh, then it would be:
stream_to_mpd.sh --mpd --host myseekretpassword@mympdhost $(listentodi --gui --url)
Edit the script to change it if you like.
Requires a paid subscription to Digitally Imported or any of the other
services. Create the file $HOME/.config/diuserkey.rc and put your listen
key in as the first line.
You can find your listen key on the DI website under Settings -> Player Settings -> Listen Key.
