mpdump v1.0.2

mpdump

Dump all the songs stored in a MPD database into a raw list that may be parsed to JSON.

Install

The following tools are written in ECMAScript. You need Node > 6 to run them.

Execute npm i to install the dependencies.

Usage

Dump

• MPD must be running
• execute node dump.js
• it generates a dump.raw file in the current directory by executing listallinfo
• CTRL+C to kill the client when the dump is finished. (OK is written on the screen)

Config

By default the client connects on port 6600 and the result is called dump.raw. Simply edit the dump.js to tweak those values. Don't be scared, the script is only a few lines long!

Parse

• dump.raw must have been generated (see above) in the current directory
• execute node parse.js
• it generates a dump.json file in the current directory
• ???
• PROFIT!

Bonus

You can also run npm run dump and npm run parse
