This moves all communication with Mpv's unix socket into another tokio task, and uses message passing through clonable mpsc channels to receive commands to execute, and to send responses.
mpvipc
A small library which provides bindings to control existing mpv instances through sockets.
To make use of this library, please make sure mpv is started with the following option:
$ mpv --input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpv.sock --idle ...
Dependencies
mpvcargo(makedep)
Install
You can use this package with cargo.
Example
Make sure mpv is started with the following option:
$ mpv --input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpv.sock --idle
Here is a small code example which connects to the socket /tmp/mpv.sock and toggles playback.
extern crate mpvipc;
use mpvipc::*;
use std::sync::mpsc::channel;
fn main() {
let mpv = Mpv::connect("/tmp/mpv.sock").unwrap();
let paused: bool = mpv.get_property("pause").unwrap();
mpv.set_property("pause", !paused).expect("Error pausing");
}
For a more extensive example and proof of concept, see project mpvc.
