Usage
- Run
cmus-notify
in your terminal to start the program, the program will run in the background and will notify you about cmus status changes - You can also run
cmus-notify --help
to see the available options, also you can see the available options in the usage - You also have the ability to configure the program using a configuration file, you basically have the same options as the command line arguments, but you can also use the configuration file to set the default values for the command line arguments, the default configuration file path is
~/.config/cmus-notify/config.toml
, you can also use the--config
option to specify a custom configuration file path, the default config file will be created in~/.config/cmus-notify/config.toml
if it doesn't exist - The recommended way to use the program is to run it in the background when you start the
cmus
music player, you can do that by creating an alias forcmus
in your shell configuration file, e.g.alias cmus="cmus-notify --link & cmus"
, the--link
option will link thecmus-notify
process to thecmus
process, so when you closecmus
thecmus-notify
process will also be terminated
