CYP: Control Your Player

CYP is a web-based frontend for MPD, the Music Player Daemon. You can use it to control the playback without having to install native application(s). It works in modern web browsers, both desktop and mobile.

Features

• Control the playback, queue, volume
• Save and load playlists
• Browse the library by artists/albums/directories
• Display album art via native MPD calls (no need to access the library; requires MPD >= 0.21)
• Youtube-dl intergration

Installation

Make sure you have a working MPD setup first.

git clone https://github.com/ondras/cyp.git && cd cyp
npm i
node .

Point your browser to http://localhost:8080 to open the interface.

Technology

• Connected to MPD via WebSockets (using the ws2mpd bridge)
• Modern ES6+ (modules, async/await)
• Responsive layout via Flexbox
• SVG icons (Material Design)
• Dark/Light theme available
• Album art downloaded directly from MPD (and cached via localStorage)

TODO

• Bundling
• Range styling
