Audacious - OLD, PLEASE USE GITHUB DISCUSSIONS/ISSUES

An old school implementation would be a script that runs "audtool current-song" and passes it to your favorite twitter command-line interface whenever there is a change. With some safety measures, of course, as to avoid a flood of tweets for example.

Sounds promising. Thanks!

Just in case anyone is in the least interested, here is a shell script to pass what's playing on Audacious to oysttyer and share on Twitter. Also gives a desktop notification. I use a desktop launcher at the moment, but may do a cron in the future.

#!/bin/sh

1. variable declarations and settings
   check=$(audtool --playback-status)
   MySong=$(audtool --current-song-tuple-data title);
   MyAlbum=$(audtool --current-song-tuple-data album);

#Check if Audacious is running

if [ ${check} == "playing" ];

then
Post="Groovin' to '"${MySong}"' from '"${MyAlbum}"'"

echo ${Post} | oysttyer status=

MESSAGE="${Post} Tweeted"

else
echo ${check} "Nothing Playing"

MESSAGE="${check} - Nothing Tweeted"

fi

notify-send -u critical -i face-smile "$MESSAGE"

Oops, didn't need the == in the "if" statement.
