mpvc

Music player interfacing mpv.

mpvc is a set of POSIX‑shell scripts that act as a front‑end for the mpv media player, exposing core command‑line controls and a variety of auxiliary interfaces. The core script supplies basic playback commands, while optional extras add a text‑based user interface, fzf‑driven playlist management, a lightweight web controller, MPRIS integration, an equalizer, and automatic start‑stop based on presence. These components can be combined to create a fully scriptable music‑playing environment that runs in a terminal or can be accessed remotely.

The package targets users who prefer shell‑centric workflows and want to control mpv without leaving the command line. It is suitable for developers, power users, and anyone comfortable with POSIX tools such as sh, awk, and socat, and who may also make use of optional utilities like curl, fzf, jq, notify‑send, yt‑dlp, or cava for extended functionality.

Installation consists of fetching the scripts via git, curl, or package managers and linking them into a binary directory; an installer helper checks for required dependencies and can configure the user environment. The project is stable, with a focus on programmability and extensibility through its modular extras.
