Ambient soundscape player
This is a python cli program that plays audio files, looping them for a specified duration and fading between them.
It reads a directory for .ogg, .wav or .flac files. The program comes
with a set of files, but can be used with any files on your computer of the
supported types by using the --path parameter when invoking.
pip install ambience
ambience --fetch-library
Clone this repository.
Run pip3 install --user -r requirements.txt to install pygame if not already installed
Recommended: link ambience in a directory on your path. E.g. ln -s ambience.py ~/bin/ambience
To install pygame from scratch instead of using pip, you can use the following commands (assuming linux):
# Clone source repo
sudo apt install mercurial
hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame
cd pygame
sudo apt install libsdl-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsmpeg-dev libportmidi-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev
python3 setup.py build
sudo python3 setup.py install
To run with the default settings, simply run ambience. Use "ctrl-c" to stop.
