Configuration

You can pass the following settings to MphpD when initializing it:

use FloFaber\MphpD\MphpD;
$mphpd = new MphpD([
  "host" => "127.0.0.1",
  "port" => 6600,
  "timeout" => 5,
  "password" => "beetlejuice",
  "binarylimit" => 8192
]);

All of those are optional. If one is not specified the default value is used. See below.

Host

String. Specifies the IP to which MphpD should connect.

If prefixed with unix: the path to MPD's Unix socket. Example: unix:/var/run/mpd.sock

Default: 127.0.0.1

Port

Int. The port on which MPD is listening.

Default: 6600

Timeout

Int. Defines the connect-, read- and write-timeout in seconds.

Default: 1

Password

String. The plaintext password used for authentication on MPD.

Default: empty string

Binarylimit

Int. The maximum number of bytes a binary chunk returned by MPD can have.

A bigger value means less overhead. Don't change it if you don't experience any problems with the default value.

Only supported on MPD v0.22.4 and newer. It's simply ignored and set to 8192 on older versions.

Default: 8192
