<h2 id="upmpdcli.config">Configuration</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>See the man page for command line details. In most situations, <strong>upmpdcli</strong>
will be run as follows:</p></div>

<div class="paragraph"><p>The <tt>-D</tt> option tells <strong>upmpdcli</strong> to fork and run in background. The <tt>-c</tt>
option specifies a configuration file.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The configuration file has a simple <tt>name = value</tt> format.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The configuration parameters can be set from the command line, a
configuration file, or the environment in this order of priority. It would
be rather confusing to use a mix of methods, so you should probably chose
one. Some less common parameters can only be set in the configuration file.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>All parameters have defaults, and a typical installation needs no
modification of the configuration file. If several instances of <strong>upmpdcli</strong>
run on the same network, you will want to give them distinct names
(<em>friendlyname</em> parameter). The other parameters are only useful in special
situations.</p></div>

<div class="paragraph" id="upmpdcli.iconpathnote"><p><strong>iconpath</strong> note: the UPnP protocol has provisions for a renderer to send
the URL to a descriptive icon as part of the device description. The icon
to use can be set using the <strong>iconpath</strong> configuration file parameter. Due to
current (and probably permanent) <strong>upmpdcli</strong> limitations, the image file
<strong>must</strong> be a 64x64 32 bits-per-pixel png file.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph" id="upmpdcli.presentationnote"><p><strong>presentationhtml</strong> note: the file referenced by the path will only be read
once when <strong>upmpdcli</strong> starts, it can’t presently be used for status updates
(but I guess that you could put a redirect in there, to something more
dynamic served by a real HTTP server).</p></div>

<h2 id="upmpdcli.openhome">OpenHome ohMedia services</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>The support for ohMedia services (play queue managed by the player instead
of on the control point) is activated by default as of release 0.8.0, only
an explicit option will turn it off.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The previous version default was set to <em>off</em> in the software, and <em>on</em> in
the configuration file. As the configuration file is not usually
overwritten during an upgrade, if you are upgrading to 0.7.x from an
earlier version and you want to enable the services, you need to set the
option in the configuration file.</p></div>

<h2 id="upmpdcli.songcast">Songcast integration</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>upmpdcli recent versions support Songcast. See the
<a href="sc2mpd.html">description here</a>.</p></div>

<h2 id="upmpdcli.boot">Boot time startup</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p><strong>upmpdcli</strong> will try to change its <tt>uid</tt> to user <tt>upmpdcli</tt> if it is
started by root. It will refuse to run if the user does not exist.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If started by <tt>root</tt>, <strong>upmpdcli</strong> will also write its process id to
<tt>/var/run/upmpdcli.pid</tt>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>There are boot-time startup scripts in the <tt>debian/</tt> directory inside the
source tree (for Debian/Ubuntu/Mint/Raspbian etc.). There is also a systemd
service file under <tt>systemd/</tt> (for Fedora et al.).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The boot scripts are installed by the pre-built packages, so will just have
to edit the configuration file after installing them, all the rest should
just work.</p></div>

<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="upmpdcli.building">Building</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>For building from source, you will need a recent <tt>C++</tt> compiler (<tt>C++11</tt>),
and the development packages for <strong>libupnp</strong> version 1.6, <strong>libcurl</strong>,
<strong>libmpdclient</strong>, and <strong>libexpat</strong>.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If you are using the source from Github, you will also need the
autoconf/automake/libtool trio. Use the <tt>autogen.sh</tt> script to set things
up.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The <strong>libupnpp</strong> library, which used to be part of <strong>upmpdcli</strong>, has been
separated, and you need to build it first.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>So you need to either clone two github repositories:
<a href="https://github.com/medoc92/libupnpp">https://github.com/medoc92/libupnpp</a> and
<a href="https://github.com/medoc92/upmpdcli">https://github.com/medoc92/upmpdcli</a>,
or download the release tar files from the the
<a href="downloads.html">download area</a></p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Once the source is extracted, the procedure is standard and there are
currently no specific configure options:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt># Only for git source
sh autogen.sh</tt></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><tt>./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install</tt></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Which you should apply first to the <strong>libupnpp</strong> source, then to <strong>upmpdcli</strong>.</p></div>
