Function Documentation

mpd_const const char* mpd_idle_name

(

enum mpd_idle

idle

)

Returns the name of the specified idle event.

Parameters:

idle	an idle event id

Returns:

the name, or NULL if that event is not known

mpd_pure enum mpd_idle mpd_idle_name_parse

(

const char *

name

)

Parses the name of an idle event.

Parameters:

name	an idle event name

Returns:

the id, or 0 if that event is not known

bool mpd_send_idle

(

struct mpd_connection *

connection

)

Enters "idle" mode: MPD will stall the response until an event has occurred. Call mpd_send_noidle() to abort the idle mode, or mpd_recv_idle() to read the event mask (or synchronously wait for events).

bool mpd_send_idle_mask	(	struct mpd_connection *	connection,
		enum mpd_idle	mask
	)

Same as mpd_send_idle(), but listen only on specific events.

Parameters:

connection	the connection to MPD
mask	a bit mask of idle events; must not be 0

Returns:

a positive job id on success, 0 on error

bool mpd_send_noidle

(

struct mpd_connection *

connection

)

Tells MPD to leave the "idle" mode. MPD will then respond with a list of events which have occurred (which may be empty). Call mpd_recv_idle() after that.

mpd_pure enum mpd_idle mpd_idle_parse_pair

(

const struct mpd_pair *

pair

)

Parses a "changed" pair, which is part of MPD's response to the "idle" command.

Returns:

an idle code, or 0 if the pair was not understood

enum mpd_idle mpd_recv_idle	(	struct mpd_connection *	connection,
		bool	disable_timeout
	)

Waits until MPD sends the list of idle events and returns it in a bit mask.

Parameters:

connection	the connection to MPD
disable_timeout	if true, then libmpdclients temporarily disables the configured timeout (see mpd_connection_set_timeout()): this function blocks forever, until either MPD sends a response, or an error occurs.

Returns:

the event bit mask, or 0 on error or if there were no events

enum mpd_idle mpd_run_idle

(

struct mpd_connection *

connection

)

Shortcut for mpd_send_idle() and mpd_recv_idle(). During mpd_recv_idle(), the configured timeout is disabled.

Parameters:

connection

the connection to MPD

Returns:

the event bit mask, or 0 on error

enum mpd_idle mpd_run_idle_mask	(	struct mpd_connection *	connection,
		enum mpd_idle	mask
	)

Shortcut for mpd_send_idle_mask() and mpd_recv_idle(). During mpd_recv_idle(), the configured timeout is disabled.

Parameters:

connection	the connection to MPD
mask	a bit mask of idle events; must not be 0

Returns:

the event bit mask, or 0 on error

enum mpd_idle mpd_run_noidle

(

struct mpd_connection *

connection

)

Shortcut for mpd_send_noidle() and mpd_recv_idle(). During mpd_recv_idle(), the configured timeout is not disabled.

Parameters:

connection

the connection to MPD

Returns:

the event bit mask, or 0 on error or if there were no events
