Socket

__construct

Socket::__construct(array $options = []) : mixed

Parameters

Returns mixed

cmd

Send $command with $params to the MPD server. You, the library's user, are not intended to ever need this method. If you ever need it because the library does not support a specific command please file a bug report. This method also parses MPDs response depending on the chosen mode.

Socket::cmd(string $command, array $params = [], int $mode = 2, array $list_start = []) : mixed

Parameters

@param string $command The command

@param array $params Parameters, automatically escaped

@param int $mode One of the following constants:

• MPD_CMD_READ_NONE - Do not read anything from the answer. Returns an empty array.

• MPD_CMD_READ_NORMAL - Parses the answer as a one-dimensional "key=>value" array. If a key already existed its value gets overwritten. Used for commands like "status" where only unique keys are given.

• MPD_CMD_READ_LIST - Parses the answer as a list of "key=>value" arrays. Used for commands like "listplaylists" where keys are not unique.

• MPD_CMD_READ_LIST_SINGLE - Parses the answer into a simple "indexed" array. Used for commands like "idle" where there is only a single possible "key".

• MPD_CMD_READ_BOOL - Parses the answer into true on OK and list_OK and false on ACK. Used for commands which do not return anything but OK or ACK.

@param array $list_start In combination with $mode = MPD_CMD_READ_LIST indicates on which key a new list starts.

Returns mixed

array|bool False on failure. Array on success. True on success if $mode is MPD_CMD_READ_BOOL

get_socket

Socket::get_socket() : mixed

Parameters

Returns mixed
