Building

• Obtain the sources. You can either do this by cloning the repository or downloading an archive of the repository.

• Change your directory into where the sources were cloned/extracted to.

• Finally to build, use the following commands:

  For debugging:

  cargo build
  

  For production use:

  cargo build --release
  

• You should see a new directory called target. There you can find subfolders for each of your build targets.

• To use globally, build for production use and then copy to your local bin

  sudo cp ./target/release/cmus-discord-rpc /usr/local/bin
  

• To run on startup, you can use systemctl

  nano ~/.config/systemd/user/cmus-discord-rpc.service
  

  Paste in the following

  [Unit]
  Description="Service for cmus-discord-rpc
  
  [Service]
  ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/cmus-discord-rpc
  Restart=always
  RestartSec=10
  
  [Install]
  WantedBy=multi-user.target
  

  CTRL+O [enter] CTRL+X to save and close

  Then you can enable the service to run on startup and run straight away by doing

  systemctl --user enable --now cmus-discord-rpc
