43 This manual page documents briefly the
47 At start up default configuration is first overridden by user configuration in mpd_sima\&.cfg (see
48 the section called \(lqFILES\(rq) and finally command lines options are honored\&. For instance you can override default MPD_HOST set in defaults (localhost) or in your configuration file with
49 \fB\-S\ \&my_mpd_server\fR
50 option\&. For default configuration see
51 the section called \(lqCONFIGURATION\(rq\&. See also environment variables special case for MPD host and port in
52 the section called \(lqENVIRONMENT\(rq\&.
54 .SS "Launch as a system service (d\(aemon)\&."
56 Here follows an example on how to launch mpd\-sima as a service on your system, not attach to regular user configuration/database\&.
58 \fBmpd\-sima \-\-daemon \-\-conf=/etc/mpd_sima\&.cfg \-\-var\-dir=/var/cache/mpd\-sima/ \-\-pid=/run/mpd\-sima\&.pid \-\-log=/var/log/mpd\-sima\&.log\fR
59 .SS "Launch in user land"
61 Launching mpd\-sima from/whithin your user account is easy, you can simply call
63 from your shell or one of the following command:
65 Background execution (d\(aemonise), log in the specified file, save pid:
67 \fBmpd\-sima \-\-daemon \-\-pid=$HOME/var/run/mpd\-sima\&.pid \-\-log=$HOME/var/log/mpd\-sima\&.log\fR
69 Foreground execution, connect
70 \fImy\&.mpd\&.server\&.org\fR, log to std(out|err):
72 \fBmpd\-sima \-\-host=my\&.mpd\&.server\&.org\fR
75 The program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`\-\*(Aq)\&. A summary of options is included below\&.
77 \fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
79 Print help and exit\&.
84 Print version and exit\&.
89 Start as a daemon\&. Log redirected to /dev/null, usually setting
93 options in daemon mode are a good idea to monitor/stop the process\&.
96 \fB\-p \fR\fB\fIpid_file\fR\fR, \fB\-\-pid=\fR\fB\fIpid_file\fR\fR
102 Default is not to store pid info\&.
105 \fB\-l \fR\fB\fIlog_file\fR\fR, \fB\-\-log=\fR\fB\fIlog_file\fR\fR
107 Use the specific file
109 to log messages to\&.
111 Default is to log to stdout/stderr\&.
114 \fB\-v \fR\fB\fIlog_level\fR\fR, \fB\-\-log\-level=\fR\fB\fIlog_level\fR\fR
116 Verbosity in [debug,info,warning,error]\&.
118 Default is to log info messages\&.
121 \fB\-c \fR\fB\fIconf_file\fR\fR, \fB\-\-config=\fR\fB\fIconf_file\fR\fR
123 Use the specific file
125 to set up configuration instead of looking for the default user configuration file\&.
127 Default is to look for
128 \fB$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mpd_sima/mpd_sima\&.cfg\fR\&.
131 CLI option overrides any equivalent mentioned in configuration file, ie\&. launching mpd\-sima with \*(Aq\fB\-\-port\fR\*(Aq CLI option will ignore port setting in configuration file\&.
134 For more details on configuration file cf\&.
135 \fBmpd_sima.cfg\fR(5), see also
136 the section called \(lqFILES\(rq\&.
141 \fB\-\-var\-dir=\fR\fB\fIvar_directory\fR\fR
143 Use the specific path
145 to look for (or create) var files (ie\&. database) instead of looking at the default user data location\&.
147 Default is to look in
148 \fB$XDG_DATA_HOME/mpd_sima/\fR\&. Concerning
151 the section called \(lqFILES\(rq
154 \fB\-\-generate\-config\fR
156 Generate a sample configuration file according to the current configuration\&. You can put other options with this one to get them in the generated configuration\&.
161 Create the database and exit\&. Uses folder specified with
163 or default directory\&.
166 \fB$XDG_DATA_HOME/mpd_sima/\fR\&. Concerning
169 the section called \(lqFILES\(rq
172 \fB\-S \fR\fB\fImpd_host\fR\fR, \fB\-\-host=\fR\fB\fImpd_host\fR\fR
174 Use the specific host
181 or a fully qualified domain name as long as your system can resolve it\&. This overrides
183 environment variable\&.
189 the section called \(lqENVIRONMENT\(rq\&.
192 \fB\-P \fR\fB\fImpd_port\fR\fR, \fB\-\-port=\fR\fB\fImpd_port\fR\fR
194 Use the specific port number
196 on MPD server\&. This overrides
198 environment variable\&.
204 the section called \(lqENVIRONMENT\(rq
208 ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/mpd_sima/mpd_sima\&.cfg

232 You may override them using command line option

242 mpd\-sima will look for
246 to override built\-in configuration (set to "localhost:6600")\&.
250 syntax as documented in mpc manual, cf\&.
254 To use a password, provide a value of the form "password@host"\&.
257 \fBHTTP_PROXY\fR, \fBHTTPS_PROXY\fR
261 environment variables\&.

269 doc/examples/\&. On Debian system please look in
270 /usr/share/doc/mpd\-sima\&.
275 Default is to look for MPD server at localhost:6600 (or MPD_HOST/MPD_PORT env\&. var\&. if set)\&.
277 The get the defaults as detected by mpd\-sima on your system you can run mpd\-sima to print the config:
