Re: [slim] Run SlimServer Under Program Control?

2007-06-08 Thread Michael Herger
 I can't get it to set a path.  I can't get it to insert to a playlist.

That's because you're running commands which are to _query_ these values:  
The genre, artist, album, title duration, remote,  
current_title and path commands allow for querying information about  
the song currently playing.

Only a few lines further down the docs there's an example how to play a  
song using the path:
04:20:00:12:23:45 playlist play /music/abba/01_Voulez_Vous.mp3LF

Applications using the CLI include SlimRemote, Moose and Jive.

Are there any completely worked examples where this actually does
something?  After logging in through telnet, I went through an hour of
commend sequences like the following:

I can't get it to set a path.  I can't get it to insert to a playlist. 
I can't get it to add to a playlist.  There are absolutely no error
messages whatsoever.  Instead, it just sits there and tells me that it
didn't change anything about the playlist.  Any help?

Re: [slim] Run SlimServer Under Program Control?

2007-06-05 Thread tggreen

When I try to run the player command as described in the help page,
the bash shell of Mac OS X responds with command not found.  Does
anybody know the fully qualified path for running these commands?  I
don't see any executables with the proper name.

you need to establish a connection to the server first.
try: telnet serverip 9090

if that works, you'll get this as a response:

Trying serverip...
Connected to servername.
Escape character is '^]'.

Then you can start typing in any commands that you want.

you can also use netcat with command lines like this:

echo 'player count ?' | nc serverip 9090

just replace serverip with the ip address or the host name of the 
computer running slimserver

Re: [slim] Run SlimServer Under Program Control?

2007-06-04 Thread Michael Herger
 Is there a simple way for a program to send a message to SlimServer that
 will tell it to play a particular music file (with hopefully a way to
 specify the file path in the SlimServer's file space)?  For instance,
 will hitting a particular URL on the SlimServer port do the trick?

Go to the technical documentation in SlimServer's help section (web  
interface). There you'll find information about the web interface (eg. how  
to play a song using an url) and the command line interface (CLI). That  
latter is very efficient when programmatically controlling SlimServer.
