Description

anybar_rs is a command-line app for controlling the Anybar application.

Building

• Ensure you've installed Rust 1.x and Cargo, and they're in your $PATH
• Run cargo build --release from the project root
• The binary will be available as target/release/anybar_rs
• Copy it into your $PATH.

Usage

By default, anybar_rs assumes that Anybar is bound to localhost on UDP port 1738. Call it like so:
anybar_rs [command]
You can send to a different port by calling the program with the -p or --port option:
anybar_rs -p --port [number] [command]

Where command is one of the following:

• white
• red
• orange
• yellow
• green
• cyan
• blue
• purple
• black
• ?
• !
• quit

(For the sake of practicality, uppercase and mixed-case input is accepted)

Exit codes

Being a stateless protocol, UDP provides no mechanism for checking whether its datagrams arrive.

• If the UDP datagram is succesfully sent, anybar_rs will exit with code 0.
• An unknown command, or incorrect usage of -p will print usage and exit with code 1.
