Installation

Caution

The bash script is configured to use ~config/rofi/nowplaying as default path. So, you can use the suggested installation step or modify it as needed.

# --- Configuration ---
art_file="$HOME/.config/rofi/nowplaying/album_art.png"
fallback_art_file="$HOME/.config/rofi/nowplaying/fallback_album_art.png"
rofi_theme="$HOME/.config/rofi/nowplaying/nowplaying.rasi"
cache_file="$HOME/.config/rofi/nowplaying/song_title.cache"

1. Create the required directories:

mkdir -p ~/.config/rofi/nowplaying

2. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/Harsh-bin/rofi-music-control ~/.config/rofi/nowplaying

3. Make the script executable:

chmod +x ~/.config/rofi/nowplaying/nowplaying.sh

All set. Now, you need to add keybindings or other controls to launch the nowplaying.sh.
