Introduction

Have you ever heard Music Player Daemon? Conceptually, fuocore(feeluown core) is also a MPD, but fuocore has its own protocol and architecture which are totally different from the normal MPD.

• It defines its own text control protocol on top of tcp. Users send text as input to ask fuocore do something and fuocore output a text message as response, which can be easily processed with unix shell tools such as grep, awk, etc. See Fuo protocol for more details.
• It construct a abstract music library by using xiami, qq, netease and local music as its resource provider. For example, when we do a search operation, fuocore will launch search request to each provider, and then do ordering and filtering on search results. Fuocore identify every resource (song, artist, album, etc.) by giving them a uri like ‘fuo://provider/songs/identifier’.
• By default, it use MPV as player backend.
