AURA Web Client

Show and Tell
#1

Hello everyone,

I’ve made a client for the AURA specification which can be used with the beets AURA plugin I made.

It has a very unoriginal name and it’s not beautiful, but I quite like how it works (not surprising since I made it). Take a look at it here.

I don’t generally like web apps so at some point I might make something more like cmus (maybe fork it so I don’t have to do the hard bits), but I thought for a first client it made sense to make something that can be used instead of the web plugin.

Let me know what you think :slight_smile:

Aaa, this is so awesome! It doesn’t have to be beautiful to be very very cool. I really like that it uses a queue-based player! I will definitely use this. :tada:

Thanks! In quite a few other players I’ve found the queue to be a bit of an afterthought so I wanted to make it more important

Thanks Callum ! I’m switching to this client too.

other beets users seem to be able to make this work, but i get a ‘failed to fetch’ exception, both when i use xdg-open index.html or open the index.html directly from a browser.

here’s the full stack trace:

[i sent this to your sr.ht list, too; let me know which forum you prefer.]

Hi, I sent a response via email, which you should also be able to see on the sr.ht email list.

I don’t mind using this forum but I’d like to see how sr.ht works as much as anything :slight_smile:
