=head1 NAME

mpd-dynamic - a dynamic playlist for mpd

=head1 VERSION

version 1.120610

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This program implements a dynamic playlist for MPD, build on top of the
L<Audio::MPD> perl module.

MPD (music player daemon) is a cool music player, but it lacks a dynamic
playlist. A dynamic playlist is a playlist that will change
automatically over time. In particular, it will remove already played
songs (keeping at most a given number of songs) and add new songs to the
playlist so it never fall short of songs.

Note that since mpd is a daemon needing no gui to work, C<mpd-dynamic> is
also a daemon. That is, it will fork and do all its work from the background.
This way, you can fire C<mpd> and C<mpd-dynamic> and forget completely
about your music (especially since C<mpd-dynamic> is a low-resource program):
it will just be there! :-)

=head1 USAGE

    mpd-dynamic [options]

=head1 OPTIONS

=head2 General behaviour

You can customize the usage of mpd-dynamic with the following options:

=over 4

=item -o[ld] <old>

Number of old tracks to keep in the backlog. Defaults to 10.

=for Euclid: old.type:     integer >= 0
    old.default:  10

=item -n[ew] <new>

Number of new tracks to keep in the to-be-played playlist. Defaults to 10.

=for Euclid: new.type:     integer > 0
    new.default:  10

=item -s[leep] <sleep>

Time spent sleeping (in seconds) before checking if playlist should be
updated. Default to 5 seconds.

=for Euclid: sleep.type:     number > 0
    sleep.default:  5

=item -d[ebug]

Run mpd-dynamic in debug mode. In particular, the program will not daemonize
itself. Default to false.

=item -e[ncoding] <encoding>

Print debug messages with this encoding. Since mpd-dynamic is meant to be a
silent daemon, this option will not be used outside of debug mode. Default
to C<utf-8>.

=for Euclid: encoding.type:     string
    encoding.default:  'utf-8'

=item --version

=item --usage

=item --help

=item --man

Print the usual program information

=back

Note however that those flags are optional: since C<mpd-dynamic> comes with
some sane defaults, you can fire C<mpd-dynamic> as is.

=head2 Ratings

You can also take advantage of ratings if you want. With those options, songs
need to have at least a given rating (or no rating yet) to be inserted: this
way, you will only listen to your favorite songs!

Ratings can be created / updated with C<mpd-rate>.

Note that if you supply a non-existant rating db-file, the rating mechanism
will be ignored. The following options control the rating mechanism:

=over 4

=item -r[atings] <ratings>

The path of a db file with the ratings per song. The keys are the song path
(relative to MPD root), and the value is an integer (the rating). Default to
C<~/.mpd/ratings.db>.

=for Euclid: ratings.type:     readable
    ratings.default:  "$ENV{HOME}/.mpd/ratings.db"

=item -m[in[imum]] <min>

The minimum rating for a song to be inserted in the playlist. Default to 4.

=for Euclid: min.type:     integer > 0
    min.default:  4
