Supported File Types

  • .wav
  • .ogg
  • .mp3
  • .flac

Usage

  • 'j' -- moves down in the list
  • 'k' -- moves up in the list
  • 'spacebar' -- plays a sample or navigates to the selected directory
  • 'backspace' -- stops the current playback
  • 'q' -- quits application

Libraries Used

The major libraries involved are:

  • tui -- Used for the terminal user interface. Initially was worried it took up too much CPU time, but once compiled for release it's fine.
  • kira -- Used for audio file loading and playback. Awesome because it's simple and easy to use and provides handles to controll the playback of a sample.
  • symphonia -- Manually included to load a file and try to pull code information like bit depth, etc...

Setup

$ cargo install spinup

Tested Operating Systems

  • macOS Monterey (v12.4)
  • Linux (Manjaro Gnome)
