# node-mpc #
Simple [mpd][] client using [node.js][] as the server backend and other open-source projects.
Backend:
* [socket.io-node][] as the websocket server.
* [paperboy][] for static file delivery.
Frontend:
* [require.js][] as file and module loader for the frontend.
* [less.js][] as CSS alternative.
* [socket.io][] for the websocket connection.
Design is mostly inspired and taken from [streamie][]. Thanks to cramforce and the other designers.
I took over the \*.less files with just some small modifications, but I didn't remove unneeded things for now.
The client is fully working, but the code needs some cleanup.
## What does it look like?
Because not everyone got mpd and/or node installed and is willing to install it just for node-mpc, here is a screenshot of it's interface:
And I made a small video, too. [See it on vimeo](http://vimeo.com/16316326).
## ToDo ##
* Code Cleanup!
* Configurable. Not everyone has mpd running on localhost:6600 and most of them are even secured by password.
* ...
* See [TODO](http://github.com/badboy/node-mpc/blob/master/TODO)
## Setup ##
* `npm install socket.io`
* `npm install paperboy`
* Make sure you're mpd is up and running (no auth support yet)
* `node mpd-connect.js PORT HOST`
*
* Now use the client.
