> **Warning**
> This project is no longer maintained. If you intend to let people listen in to a Jamulus server from a website, consider using [jamulus-lounge](https://github.com/dtinth/jamulus-lounge) instead.
Simple script to stream sound from Jamulus to an Icecast server. Also shows listener count in Jamulus.
## Assumptions
Everything runs on the same machine (accessible from `localhost`).
## Requirements
- Jamulus server running on default port
- Icecast server running on port 8000
- JACK
- Jamulus client compiled from source [with this patch applied](https://github.com/dtinth/jamulus/commit/9f967bbb0f0e56d75f0b21e1b07761c9293a5ab2.patch) with executable located at `../jamulus/Jamulus`
- Ruby 2.5 or later
- ffmpeg
## Prepare `./config.ini`

## Guide
You need 3 terminal tabs (e.g. in tmux)
1. Start a JACK server:
```
jackd --no-realtime -d dummy
```
2. Stream to Icecast:
```
echo "icecast://source:@:/" > icecast_endpoint
ffmpeg -f jack -ac 2 -i icecaster -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k -f mp3 $(cat icecast_endpoint)
```
3. Run [the script](check.rb) periodically:
```
while true; do ruby check.rb; sleep 10; done
```
- Streaming will start when there is an active listener AND participant in Jamulus server.
- Streaming will end when there everyone left the Jamulus server.
