From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

radion is an internet radio CLI client, written in Bash.

https://gitlab.com/christosangel/radion

Radion can be customized as far as the station selecting program is concerned. The user can choose between:

  • read

read

  • fzf

fzf

  • rofi

rofi

  • dmenu

dmenu

Update: Introduced new feature: customizing prompt text for fzf dmenu and rofi.

Update: MacOS support added now thanks to Andrea Schäfer

Also, I was forced by my daughter to add some anime radio stations...

Update: Recording functionality added, with the use of another (you guessed it) bash script

icy

Also options in read as Preferred selector are also case insensitive.

Any feedback is appreciated!

In bash? Impressive!

Well, I know what I'll be using to listen to my radio stations from now on. Really neat project!

Also, it doesn't pick up user defined tags because it's looking in the wrong place for them!

Row 114:

TAGS=( $(sed 's/ /\n/g' stations.txt |grep "#"|grep -v "#Favorites"|sort|uniq|sed 's/#//g') )

Should be

TAGS=( $(sed 's/ /\n/g' $HOME/.cache/radion/stations.txt |grep "#"|grep -v "#Favorites"|sort|uniq|sed 's/#//g') )

How can we connect... I'm having weird graphical issues.... But I might be drunk and missing something. Tomorrow morning I'll send a video

Very cool. You might want to crosspost this to c/bash on lemmy.ml

Unrelated but, in case it's not dyslexia, it's "customize" not "costumize". It comes from "custom" not "costume".

You are right, lapsus calami...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

No metal, blues, or dnb option?

[–] christos 6 points 1 year ago

Through the script you could go to https://www.radio-browser.info/search?page=1&order=clickcount&reverse=true&hidebroken=true&tagList=metal, pick the stations you fancy and headbang yourself unconscious... 🎸 🤘

De gustibus et coloribus...

Each user can create add and enjoy any tag and station they like!
