Juke - A Different Kind of MPD Client

Juke is a front-end, GTK+ (v2) client for the Music Playing Deamon. It is being developed for Linux and is written in Go. It has an emphasis on speed and elegance, but also aims for a beautiful interface.

Documentation

Code documenation can be found at GoDoc.org (as well as in the source code). There is no documenation for input (yet).

Also, huge thanks to the contributors of the Go libraries that Juke uses:

• go-gtk
• gompd

Installation

You can use $ go get to pull the source right into your $GOPATH. $ go install will compile (and should pull the lib dependencies as well). $ juke to run.

Additionally, one will need to set up some symlinks to the images that juke uses:

# mkdir /usr/share/pixmaps/juke
# ln -s $GOPATH/src/github.com/idealeric/juke/ui/images/icon.png /usr/share/pixmaps/juke/juke.png
# ln -s $GOPATH/src/github.com/idealeric/juke/ui/images/noCover.png /usr/share/pixmaps/juke/no_cover.png

The TODO List (High Priority)

• Icons and actions for secondary controls.
• A library browser.
• Configuration options.
• Internationalization.

The Maybe List

• Drag'n'drop current playlist.
• Inline tag editting.
• Playlist browser/operations.
• GTK3 instead.

The No-Way (Probably-Not) List

• Lyrics support.
• Status icon/tray support/notifications.
• Windows support.
• Last.fm scrobbler (use mpdas or mpdscribble).
