#DACPClient

Gem Version Dependency Status

A DACP (iTunes Remote protocol) client written in the wonderful Ruby language. You can use this for controlling iTunes. It uses the same protocol as the iTunes remote iOS app.

You can control iTunes by connecting and entering a pin.

Look at the bin/dacpclient file for an example client.

Installation

On Linux you need the avahi-dnssd-compat package (libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev on Debian/Ubuntu).

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dacpclient'

And then execute:

bundle

Or install it yourself using:

gem install dacpclient
