NAME

POE::Component::Client::MPD - a full-blown mpd client library

SYNOPSIS

use POE qw[ Component::Client::MPD ];
POE::Component::Client::MPD->spawn(
    { host     => 'localhost',
      port     => 6600,
      password => 's3kr3t',  # mpd password
      alias    => 'mpd',     # poe alias
    }
);

# ... later on ...
$_[KERNEL]->post( 'mpd', 'next' );

DESCRIPTION

POE::Component::Client::MPD is a perl mpd client, sitting on top of the POE framework.

Audio::MPD gives a clear object-oriented interface for talking to and controlling MPD (Music Player Daemon) servers. A connection to the MPD server is established as soon as a new Audio::MPD object is created. Commands are then sent to the server as the class's methods are called.

PUBLIC PACKAGE METHODS

spawn( \%params )

This method will create a POE session responsible for communicating with mpd. It will return the poe id of the session newly created.

You can tune the pococ by passing some arguments as a hash reference, where the hash keys are:

  • host

    The hostname of the mpd server. If none given, defaults to MPD_HOST environment variable. If this var isn't set, defaults to localhost.

  • port

    The port of the mpd server. If none given, defaults to MPD_PORT environment variable. If this var isn't set, defaults to 6600.

  • password

    The password to sent to mpd to authenticate the client. If none given, defaults to MPD_PASSWORD environment variable. If this var isn't set, defaults to .

  • alias

    An optional string to alias the newly created POE session.
