The "Play Radio" project is a client-server application designed to play radio.
Before building the project, make sure your machine has all the required dependencies:
cmake, libboost-all-dev, libfmt-dev, libgtest-dev, libgmock-dev
If these are not yet installed, you can do so with the following command in Ubuntu:
sudo apt update && sudo apt-get install cmake libboost-all-dev libfmt-dev libgtest-dev libgmock-dev -y
The application can be built as follows:
git clone https://github.com/khromenokroman/play_radio.git
cd play_radio
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake .. -DPATCH_VERSION=99
cmake --build .
To run the tests, use:
./tests/play_radio_test
To build the package, use:
cmake --build . --target package
Running the Application
The server can be started as follow (1993 is the port):
./src/server/radio_server 1993 or /usr/bin/radio_server 1993
The client can be started as follow:
./src/client/radio_client or /usr/bin/radio_client
Upon installing the package, a file storing the list of station at /etc/radio/radio_list is created.
When starting the client, a random station is picked from this list and sent to the server to start streaming.
There is also a unit file provided:
[Unit]
Description=Radio Server Service
After=network.target

ExecStart=/usr/bin/radio_server 1993

Remember to replace User=raipo with your actual username. This file is used to run the server service.
!!! IMPORTANT !!!
The server should not be running as root, it should be running from a non-privileged user.
