NowPlaying is a lightweight, modern, object-oriented PHP library that abstracts out the currently playing metadata from popular radio broadcast software into a single common return format.
Installing
NowPlaying is a Composer package that you can include in your project by running:
composer require azuracast/nowplaying
Compatibility
| Now Playing data | Detailed client information | |
|---|---|---|
| Icecast (2.4+) | ✅ | ✅ |
| SHOUTcast 2 | ✅ | ✅ |
| SHOUTcast 1 | ✅ | ❌ |
Usage Example
<?php
// Example PSR-17 and PSR-18 implementation from Guzzle 7
// Install those with:
// composer require guzzlehttp/guzzle
$httpFactory = new GuzzleHttp\Psr7\HttpFactory();
$adapterFactory = new NowPlaying\AdapterFactory(
$httpFactory,
$httpFactory,
new GuzzleHttp\Client
);
$adapter = $adapterFactory->getAdapter(
NowPlaying\Enums\AdapterType::Shoutcast2,
'http://my-station-url.example.com:8000'
);
// You can also call:
// $adapterFactory->getShoutcast2Adapter('http://url');
// Optionally set administrator password
$adapter->setAdminUsername('admin'); // "admin" is the default
$adapter->setAdminPassword('AdminPassword!');
// The first argument to the functions is the mount point or
// stream ID (SID), to pull one specific stream's information.
$now_playing = $adapter->getNowPlaying('1');
$clients = $adapter->getClients('1');
