• # MPDClient
  
  Yet another Music Player Daemon (MPD) client library written entirely in Ruby.
  `mpd_client` is a Ruby port of the [python-mpd](https://github.com/Mic92/python-mpd2) library.
  
  ## Installation
  
  Add this line to your application `Gemfile`:
  
  ```ruby
  gem 'mpd_client'
  ```
  
  And then execute:
  
  ```
  $ bundle
  ```
  
  Or install it yourself as:
  
  ```
  $ gem install mpd_client
  ```
  
  ## Usage
  All functionality is contained in the `MPDClient` class. Creating an instance of this class is as simple as:
  
  ```ruby
  client = MPDClient.new
  ```
  
  Once you have an instance of the `MPDClient` class, start by connecting to the server:
  
  ```ruby
  client.connect('localhost', 6600)
  ```
  
  or Unix domain socket
  
  ```ruby
  client.connect('/var/run/mpd/socket')
  ```
  
  The client library can be used as follows:
  
  ```ruby
  puts client.mpd_version             # print the mpd version
  puts client.search('title', 'ruby') # print the result of the command 'search title ruby'
  client.close                        # send the close command
  client.disconect                    # disconnect from the server
  ```
  
  Command lists are also supported using `command_list_ok_begin` and `command_list_end`:
  
  ```ruby
  client.command_list_ok_begin # start a command list
  client.update                # insert the update command into the list
  client.status                # insert the status command into the list
  client.command_list_end      # result will be a Array with the results
  ```
  
  ### Ranges
  
  Some commands(e.g. `move`, `delete`, `load`, `shuffle`, `playlistinfo`) support integer ranges(`[START:END]`) as argument. This is done in `mpd_client` by using two element array:
  
  ```ruby
  # move the first three songs after the fifth number in the playlist
  client.move([0, 3], 5)
  ```
  
  Second element can be omitted. MPD will assumes the biggest possible number then:
  
  ```ruby
  # delete all songs from the current playlist, except for the firts ten
  client.delete([10,])
  ```
  
  ### Logging
  
  Default logger for all MPDClient instances:
  
  ```ruby
  require 'logger'
  require 'mpd_client'
  
  MPDClient.log = Logger.new($stderr)
  
  client = MPDClient.new
  ```
  
  Sets the logger used by this instance of MPDClient:
  
  ```ruby
  require 'logger'
  require 'mpd_client'
  
  client = MPDClient.new
  client.log = Logger.new($stderr)
  ```
