nncmpp

nncmpp is yet another MPD client. It is in effect a simplified TUI version of Sonata. I had already written a lot of the required code before, so I had the perfect opportunity to get rid of the unmaintained Python application and make the first TUI client that doesnt feel awkward to use.

Since I only use the filesystem browsing mode, thats also the only thing I care to implement. Anything else will have to be user-contributed while I focus on things that arent worthless to me.

If its not obvious enough, the name is a pun on all those ridiculous client names, and should be pronounced as "nincompoop".

Currently its under development and doesnt do much.

Packages

Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get a package with the latest development version from Archlinuxs AUR, or from openSUSE Build Service for the rest of mainstream distributions. Consult the list of repositories and their respective links at:

Building and Running

Build dependencies: CMake, pkg-config, liberty (included), termo (included)
Runtime dependencies: ncursesw, libunistring

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/pjanouch/nncmpp.git
$ mkdir nncmpp/build
$ cd nncmpp/build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
$ make

To install the application, you can do either the usual:

# make install

Or you can try telling CMake to make a package for you. For Debian it is:

$ cpack -G DEB
# dpkg -i nncmpp-*.deb

Note that for versions of CMake before 2.8.9, you need to prefix cpack with fakeroot or file ownership will end up wrong.

Having the program installed, create a configuration file and run it.

Configuration

Create ~/.config/nncmpp/nncmpp.conf with contents like the following:

settings = {
	address = "localhost"
	password = "<your password>"
	root = "~/Music"
}
colors = {
	header = "reverse"
	header_active = "ul"
	even = "16 231"
	odd = "16 255"
}
