ptgdp: Play the Goddamned Playlist

A tool to play a plaintext playlist composed entirely of youtube-dl search queries

Installation

Put ptgdp somewhere in $PATH and install youtube-dl.

Quickstart

Make a file containing a few download queries. For example:

myplaylist.gdp

alice in chains love hate love
megadeth high speed dirt
tool parabola

Then invoke ptgdp:

ptgdp myplaylist.gdp

See below for more intricate usage.

Configuration

Move ptgdp.conf from this repo to ~/.config/ptgdp.conf and change the values as you see fit. Alternatively, invoke ptgdp with -c and point it at your config file.

Return Codes

Code	Meaning
`1`	Syntax error
`50`	Misconfigured backend
`51`	Backend could not be set up (i.e. mpd failed to update)
`60`	Playlist does not exist
`61`	Playlist is unreadable

Idiosyncracies

Because I haven't quite figured out how to into mpd sockets, this tool assumes that $XDG_MUSIC_DIR (~/Music) is the root of your library.
