Scripting
Gomu uses anko as its scripting language. You can read more about scripting at our wiki
Keybinds.def_g("ctrl_x", func() {
out, err = shell(`echo "hello world"`)
if err != nil {
debug_popup("an error occured")
}
info_popup(out)
})
Project Background
I just wanted to implement my own music player with a programming language i'm currently learning (Go). Gomu might not be stable as it in constant development. For now, it can fulfill basic music player functions such as:
- add and delete songs from queue
- create playlists
- skip
- play
- pause
- forward and rewind

Album Photo
For songs downloaded by Gomu, the thumbnail will be embeded as Album cover. If you're not satisfied with the cover, you can edit it with kid3 and attach an image as album cover. Jpeg is tested, but other formats should work as well.
