I tried to use playerctl to control musikcube playback, but on Artix musikcube didn't provide any mpris interface.
Muiskcube mpris plugin supports libelogind instead of libsystemd but you need to replace it manually.
Installation of musikcube with mpris support on systemd-free distribution (originals of changed files will be saved as <filename>.<extention>.bak):
Install musikcube from source:
git clone https://github.com/clangen/musikcube.git --recursive
cd musikcube
Replace libsystemd requirement with libelogind:
sed -i.bak 's/libsystemd/libelogind/g' src/plugins/mpris/CMakeLists.txt
optional:
sed -i.bak 's/libsystemd-dev/libelogind/g' script/install-deps.sh
Build according to this instruction:
Install dependencies.
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" .
make
Troubleshooting:
3.1 itemListMap
Solution:
replace itemListMap with itemMap in src/plugins/taglib_plugin/TaglibMetadataReader.cpp:
sed -i.bak 's/itemListMap/itemMap/g' src/plugins/taglib_plugin/TaglibMetadataReader.cpp
make
3.2 <ncursesw/curses.h> / <ncursesw/panel.h>
Solution: According to the instruction "you should invoke CMake with the -DNO_NCURSESW flag as follows: cmake -DNO_NCURSESW . instead of the more standard cmake . ", but it gives error:
CMake Error: Parse error in command line argument: NO_NCURSESW
Should be: VAR:type=value
so you should remove ncursesw/ from #include:
sed -i.bak 's/ncursesw\///g' src/musikcube/cursespp/cursespp/curses_config.h
make
After make completed:
sudo make install
After installation libmpris.so may not appear in /usr/local/share/musikcube/plugins or /usr/share/musikcube/plugins. In this case:
It works, but you need to compile musikcube with specfic cmake flags. For openrc and other elogind related: -DUSE_ELOGIND=true .
Some times ago I wrote ebuild for gentoo and it was adapted with another patch to make it link against ncurses better, thanks to some smart guys. You can see some useful stuff there . For example, if you need mpris, it depends on your service-system : if systemd , then don't add anything, because it's default, if elogind, add the mentioned flag, if basu (*BSD OSs), then another flag.
