The goal of this project is to create a fully functional mobile web-interface for Rhythmbox. It's implemented as an Rhythmbox plugin written in python. The plugin starts a local webserver on 0.0.0.0:8001 (or localhost), which handles the requests of the browser.
- Rhythmbox 3.1+
- Python 3
- Bottle (python module)
- Modern Webrowser (HTML5 enabled)
The plugin has been tested with Rhythmbox 3.1 on fedora 21 with Firefox 33.1 and a Nokia x7 smartphone.
Simply run the python script make.py without arguments. The script will check the dependencies, create the plugin folder and symlink the plugin into that folder. Additionally it will start rhythmbox without debug output enabled for the plugin. It will also create a local schema directory and file so that root priveledges are not needed to install the plugin in a users plugin directory.
If you want to install the plugin, run:
python3 make.py installThis will copy the plugin-files to ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/plugins/ and copy a schema file to ~/.local/glib-2.0/schemas/
The repository also includes an Eclipse-Project (with PyDev Extension) with configured Debug/Run configurations.
