Audio::XMMSClient::XMLRPC
![[SIGNED]](http://perldition.org/static/common/images/lock.png)
I just uploaded Audio::XMMSClient::XMLRPC 0.01 to the CPAN. It's basically an XMLRPC interface to the xmms2 daemon. It ties all Audio::XMMSClient functions except for the signal and broadcast stuff to an XMLRPC API which is quite similar to the Perl API of Audio::XMMSClient.
It will be available from from CPAN in some hours and can be grabbed from the Pause incoming queue in the meantime.
xmms2_0.2DrGonzo-1
The xmms2 project released 0.2DrGonzo recently.
I've prepared packages for it, but as the new release adds two new plugins I needed to add two new binary packages. Therefor it'll need to go through the NEW queue again.
In the meantime you can grab the source package and build it yourself for your architecture:
Audio::XMMSClient
Yesterday I did some work for the XMMS2 Debian packages. Thereby I noticed that libxmmsclient0, the xmms2 client library, that allows you to write your own xmms2 clients, is bound to quite a lot of languages, but perl bindings were still missing.
I took a look at the library interface and it seemed that creating bindings shouldn't be a big deal. Therefor I gave a try and wrote Audio::XMMSClient.
There are still some rough edges, but it works pretty well already. The interface is quite close to the C API, so it's possible to work with it even if documentation, examples and a test suite are still missing.
Comments on the API, the namespace and whether this module should go into the xmms2 distribution, like other language bindings, or directly to CPAN are most welcome.
