# Music Player



A simple GUI music player inspired by foobar2000 written in Rust using [egui](https://github.com/emilk/egui).

The goal of this project is to learn about making gui/ native apps, audio, databases / text search.

It is not meant to be used as a serious audio player.



## Goals



- Basic music player functionality. Play, pause, stop.

- Create a music library, which is indexed for searching.

- Parse id3 tags from tracks for use with indexing.

- Create playlists, which can be saved, opened, edited, reordered

- Drag n' Drop tracks from the music library into the playlist.

- Save last state of the app when closing.



## Stretch goals



- [ ] See if I can make right-click context menus.

- [ ] Visualizations

- [ ] Stream audio

- [ ] Swappable frontend so I can try other Rust cross platform gui libaries.

- [x] Scrubbable audio. ie. Keep position in audio and arbitrarily move to any position



## Stuff to fix or implement



- [x] Reference playlists by index or actual reference (not a clone...), so info is not lost when changing playlist context

- [x] Double clicking track automatically starts to play it.

- [x] Remove playlists.

- [x] Un-named playlists get `(idx)` appended 

- [x] Playlist tab section stacks playlist tabs when they don't fit.

- [x] Add Next and Previous controls

- [x] Pause is a toggle

- [x] Play restarts the track

- [x] Add volume control slider

- [x] Implement library

- [x] Refactor so the items parsed in the library are the primary data type passed around instead of separate library items and tracks.

- [x] Set currently playing track as app Title

- [x] Display playlist as a table [Playing, Track #, Artist, Album Title, etc... ]

- [x] Add player indicators next to the track

- [x] Improve library build performance and probably offload to a non-ui thread.

- [x] Add toolbar with File, Properties, Help, etc...

- [x] Save app state on close (just get it working bare min with a random file).

- [x] Use Confy for app state load/save

- [x] Refactor into more sensible responsibilities (think components / widgets / features).

- [x] Investigate performance regression with a large library (this is due to sorting/grouping the view on every frame)

- [x] Fix library view performance. Don't need to keep computing the grouping every frame - persist it in app state with a new data structure.

- [x] Fix all egui deprecation errors... should be just one for using `CollapsingState` instead of `CollapsingHeader`

- [ ] Fix Dark mode now that egui has made some changes in 0.18

- [ ] Figure out error handling (anyhow, eyre, thiserror, etc...)

- [ ] Remove tracks from playlist.

- [ ] Reorder items in playlist.

- [ ] Support multiple directories for library

- [ ] Figure out how to use at least one hotkey and key event.

- [ ] Define key events for the application

- [ ] Selected track is highlighted.

- [ ] Playlist plays to end after track is selected.

- [ ] Save playlists.

- [ ] Handle files which can't be decoded correctly into audio. 

- [ ] Implement library search.

- [ ] Differentiate between a selected track and the currently playing one.

- [ ] Library display options [ album, artist, year, genre, folder structure, etc...]

- [ ] Library Item hashable?

- [ ] Discovery on how to make the library state smaller when saved (compression, better data structure, maybe save separate from app state, etc...)

- [ ] Surface logs to the user in the UI

- [ ] Stop with all the cloning... seriously. Everything is cloned.
