NAME¶
mpdcron - cron like daemon for mpd
SYNOPSIS¶
mpdcron [
option]
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.
OPTIONS¶
- -?, --help

- -V, --version

- -k, --kill
