ears

ears is a simple library to play sounds and music in Rust.

• Provides an access to the OpenAL spatialization functionality in a simple way.
• Accepts a lot of audio formats, thanks to libsndfile.

Documentation

Building

You need to install OpenAL and libsndfile on your system:

Linux

sudo apt install libopenal-dev libsndfile1-dev

Mac

brew install openal-soft libsndfile

Windows

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libsndfile mingw-w64-x86_64-openal

Examples

cargo run --example basic cargo run --example many_sounds cargo run --example music cargo run --example record cargo run --example simple_player

Functionality

ears provides two ways to play audio files:

• The Sound class, which represents light sounds who can share a buffer of samples with another Sound.
• The Music class, which represents bigger sound and can't share sample buffers.
