Penguin

The music server written in Golang

TODO:

• Add support for account creds in youtube-dl to download from website that require an account to watch (e.g. niconico)
• Youtube link parsing
• R9K Mode (Video can only be played once, all videos must be unique)

Features? (I don't know what to call this section)

• When returning a HTML page, the handlers in the musicserver package will use the templatecache package. This uses templates found in the templates/ directory. It makes use of the html/template package. Full UTF-8 is supported so you can use emoji and stuff for user aliases!

• The musicserver package serves the contents of the static/ directory directly.

• Uses the same ZURB Foundation CSS found on the UWCS Website for a more unified look.

• Uses jquery, notify.js for the frontend webpage.

• Comes with a self-updating youtube-dl ELF binary, feel free to not use it if you don't want to, just edit the config.

Compiling and running

• Install golang
• cd into top level directory
• Run go build
• Copy sample.config.json to config.json and edit appropriately
• Run program: ./penguin

Design goals

• Use only Golang standard library, compile and run anywhere
• Be fully usable on desktop, even with JavaScript disabled

Out of scope

• Interface designed for mobile device use
