Access and control your volume easily via Terminal or Hotkey.
Just make youstream executable and place it somewhere within your $PATH.
For example:
$ chmod +x youstream
# mv youstream /usr/local/bin/youstream
$ volume [ previous | play-pause | next | up | down | mute | unmute | toggle-mute | get ]
Edit the script for personal preferences.
- Bash
- coreutils (cut, echo, tail, test)
- libnotify (notify-send)
- alsa-utils (amixer)
- cmus (cmus-remote)
- grep
- sed
Add the following lines to your rc.lua to use your multimedia keys as hotkeys for volume:
awful.key({}, "XF86AudioPrev", function () awful.util.spawn("volume previous") end),
awful.key({}, "XF86AudioPlay", function () awful.util.spawn("volume play-pause") end),
awful.key({}, "XF86AudioNext", function () awful.util.spawn("volume next") end),
awful.key({}, "XF86AudioRaiseVolume", function () awful.util.spawn("volume up") end),
awful.key({}, "XF86AudioLowerVolume", function () awful.util.spawn("volume down") end),
awful.key({}, "XF86AudioMute", function () awful.util.spawn("volume toggle-mute") end)
