# QMK - Now Playing 🎵
Show information and album art for the currently playing song on the OLED screen of your QMK keyboard

This project allows for information about the currently playing song to be shown on a QMK keyboard's OLED display.
It is currently untested on Windows but is unlikely to work due to dependence on MPRIS2-compatible media players. Pull Requests are welcome to extend support though
The code in this repo is currently in a pretty hacky state as it serves as a demonstration of the capabilities of the [qmk-oled-api repository](https://github.com/dob9601/qmk-oled-api).
## Installation
Currently no packaging has been setup. Run the project via `cargo run` after setting the path to your device (`/dev/hidrawX` where `X` is some number). You will need to configure your keyboard as a `qmk-oled-api` client. An example of how to do so can be found in the README of the [qmk-oled-api repository](https://github.com/dob9601/qmk-oled-api#client-snippet)
pre-built binaries are [available in releases](https://github.com/dob9601/qmk-nowplaying/releases/latest)
