4This is a quick introduction for Lyricli. Right now it's in really early
5stages of development, so it's lacking in a lot of stuff (mainly tests
6and documentation) ... But it generally works and here's a tutorial to
7see how to get it working.
8
9### Installing ###
10
111. Clone this Repo
122. `gem build lyricli.gemspec`
133. `gem install lyricli-0.0.1.gem`
144. Voila!
15
16### Usage ###
17
18Lyricli can be invoked with the command `lrc` and there are three basic
19ways of using it:
20
21`lrc`
22
23When you run it without arguments, it will look in the available sources
24to try to find a playing song and extract the lyrics.
25
26`lrc artist song`
27
28When you run it with arguments, it will use them to search for the
29lyrics. This won't work if you manually disable the arguments source in
30your configuration file.
31
32#### Commands ####
33
34The third way to use it is by passing it one of the following special
35commands:
36
37* `lrc -l` or `lrc --list-sources` lists the available sources.
38* `lrc -e` or `lrc --enable SOURCE` enable a source from the list.
39* `lrc -d` or `lrc --disable SOURCE` disable a source from the list.
40* `lrc -r` or `lrc --reset SOURCE` reset all configuration for a source.
41* `lrc -v` or `lrc --version` show the installed version of lyricli.
42* `lrc -h` or `lrc --help` display some help
43
44### Roadmap ###
45
46There is not much defined right now as a roadmap, but this needs to be
47done:
48
49* Specs for all the components
50* YARD documentation for all the components
51
52And the first thing I want to work on after that is done is separating
53the Lyrics Engines so we can add/remove lyrics engines in a similar way to how
54we currently add/remove sources.
55
56Also, I want to add the last song to the configuration, so you can check
57that. This would let us "watch" lyricli without hammering the lyrics
58wiki api
59
60Also, during the enable phase, sources like iTunes should check for
61proper OS and stop if they're not in their home turf.
