NAME
mpdcron - cron like daemon for mpd
SYNOPSIS
mpdcron [option]
DESCRIPTION
mpdcron is a cron like daemon for mpd. It connects to mpd, waits for
idle events. It has two interfaces:
· Hooks which are executed after setting environment variables which
hooks can use to get more information about the event without having
to connect to mpd.
· Modules, which are dynamically loaded and have direct access to mpd
connection and the file descriptor of mpdcron’s configuration file.
By default it will get the host name and port for mpd from MPD_HOST and
MPD_PORT environment variables. MPD_PASSWORD environment variable can
be set to make mpdcron connect to a password-protected mpd. If these
environment variables aren’t set, mpdcron connects to localhost on port
6600.
