surge

Command-line YouTube-based music player. System dependencies:

* youtube-dl
* libmpv
* A valid YouTube api key

You must run surge with the YouTube API key as the first (and only) argument:

alias surge='surge $(cat ~/yt_api_key)'

Play music

• search populates a Vec of 5 current results
• cycle cycles through
• play <selection> plays the selection immediately
• queue <selection> queues the selection
• related populates the Vec with 5 related videos
• pause/play pauses and resumes
• stop stops the player and clears the queue
• loop toggles loop mode

Readline

Surge uses rustyline which is a pure-Rust implementation of GNU Readline. It supports command history and other readline goodies:

• Emacs navigation keys
• Ctrl-R for reverse search
• Up/down arrows to cycle through commands
