Douban.fm

Play music from douban.fm.

Note that this project is still on-going, so I will only try my best to stablize the interface.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'douban.fm'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install douban.fm

Usage


$ douban.fm -h

Basically there are two ways to play music

to play direclty by mpg123

Under this mode, music will be played by forking mpg123 directly. Sorry currently there is no way to configure which music player to use.
- douban.fm will play anonymous playlist of channel 0
- douban.fm -c 1 will play channel 1
- douban.fm -u [email protected] -p xxx will play private playlist
- douban.fm -u [email protected] -p xxx -c 1 will play channel 1 but with your account signed in
- douban.fm -u [email protected] -p will play private playlist but will ask for your password to sign in
to play by Music Player Daemon

Under this mode, URL of music will be sent to MPD which will actually play. Whenever there are less than 10 songs in MPD playlist, more will be retrieved from douban.fm.

It is fantastic to use MPD since there are quite many clients to use. I am now just use my iPhone with MPoD2.

Thanks for @tdsparrow pointing out MPD, otherwise I might have been doing some really stupid things.
- douban.fm -m will play anonymous playlist of channel 0
- douban.fm -m -c 1 will play channel 1
- douban.fm -m -u [email protected] -p xxx will play private playlist
- douban.fm -m -u [email protected] -p xxx -c 1 will play channel 1 but with your account signed in
- douban.fm -m -u [email protected] -p will play private playlist but will ask for your password to sign in
- if "-m -i" is provided, a web server will start listening on 3000 by default, and you may
  - GET /channels to get all available channels
  - GET /channel to get current playing channel
  - GET /channel/ to switch to channel of the specified id, if id is -1, channel will be selected randomly each time fetching playlist
  - GET /kbps to get current kbps
  - GET /kbps/ to set kbps, for non-pro user this option simply does not work
  - GET / or /index to view channel switch pannel
