Support connecting to UNIX sockets #111

Closed bearcatsandor closed 4 years ago

bearcatsandor commented 6 years ago

version: current git as of 20180210

MPD_HOST=/home/moonwind/.config/mpd/socket MPD_PORT=6600

ls /home/moonwind/.config/mpd includes srw-rw-rw- 1 moonwind moonwind 0 Jan 4 15:54 socket

My debug gives me: [1.01009] Establishing MPD IDLE connection to /home/moonwind/.config/mpd/socket:6600... [1.01097] ERROR: Error connecting to MPD: MPD connection error: dial tcp: lookup /home/moonwind/.config/mpd/socket: no such host

Ncmpcpp uses that socket just fine, so i'm not sure what's happening here. Is pms unable to use sockets?

kimtore commented 6 years ago

That's right, unfortunately. Connecting to a socket is not supported presently.

Thank you. I hope that it's supported someday. In the mean time, I realized that I can activate both the socket and the http port. It seems to lose that connection from time to time, and then the elapsed time doesn't reset when going to a new track. These may or may not be related issues.
