Radio Paradise player and notifier

Radio paradise: https://www.radioparadise.com

This program plays radio paradise's stream from cli and send notifications on what's currently playing using your desktop notification system.

This is tested (and certainly working only) under linux.

usage

  • Launch the program in command line with

$ paradise_player

  • or the shortcut

$ rpp

  • it will start to play the steam and send notification when song changes.

  • Ctrl+C to stop it

installation

$ pip install paradise_player

or clone the repository from github and run

$ python setup.py install

configuration

config file is stored in ~/.config/paradise_player/config.cfg

see file config_sample.cfg for all configuration parameters.

dependencies

  • This program requires notify-send on your system.

For archlinux, install libnotify:

$ sudo pacman -S libnotify

  • It also requires a notification server, generally built-in if you use 'big' desktop environments like gnome or kde.

Alternatively, you can use dunst (https://dunst-project.org/)

  • playing the radio stream is configurable, vlc is used by default. you can use ffplay (from ffmpeg), mplayer, or any cli player capable of playing http streams.

  • of course this program requires python 3+ installed in your system.
