Description
mpdcron is a cron like daemon for mpd. It connects to mpd, waits for idle events. It has two
interfaces:
• Hooks which are executed after setting environment variables which hooks can use to get more
information about the event without having to connect to mpd.
• Modules, which are dynamically loaded and have direct access to mpd connection and the file descriptor
of mpdcron's configuration file.
By default it will get the host name and port for mpd from MPD_HOST and MPD_PORT environment variables.
MPD_PASSWORD environment variable can be set to make mpdcron connect to a password-protected mpd. If
these environment variables aren't set, mpdcron connects to localhost on port 6600.
Files
