lord

Lord is a unified command line interface to several online radios.

By default, lord uses mpd as backend. When mpd is available, lord can be run as daemon (default) or in foreground (with --no-daemon option). When mpd is unavailable (not running), lord will fallback to use mplayer. Mplayer is run in foreground to allow user controlling playback with mplayer keybindings.

Supported radios:

• 8tracks.com
• cmd.fm
• radioreddit.com
• douban.fm Only in China?
• jing.fm Only in China?

bash completion

optparse-applicative has built-in support for bash completion of command line options and arguments.

With bash, add to your .bashrc:

source <(lord --bash-completion-script `which lord`)

With zsh, add to your .zshrc:

autoload bashcompinit
bashcompinit
source <(lord --bash-completion-script `which lord`)

NOTE: lord --bash-completion-script `which lord` can generate the bash_completion file on the fly. However, you can also use the installed version. The bash_completion file is installed to somewhere like ~/.cabal/share/x86_64-linux-ghc-7.6.3/lord-2.20131220/bash_completion.d/lord.
