Control Rdio from Vim

No longer maintained

Unfortunately Rdio has shut down, so this plugin is no longer maintained. 😢

The old README, from when Rdio was a Thing

potentially as useful as Fugitive

Requirements:

• OS X Yosemite, since it uses Yosemite's Javascript for Automation extensively
• fzf (brew install fzf), with the Vim plugin set up
• fzf requires the curses Rubygem: gem install curses
• You must be using Google Chrome or Safari (Firefox's Applescript does not support sending JS to a tab)

Usage

Install this plugin with your preferred Vim plugin manager, like Vundle or pathogen.

Now you have some neat Vim commands:

• :RdioPlaylists, which lets you fuzzy-find through your Rdio playlists
• :RdioPlayPause, which plays/pauses Rdio
• :RdioNext, which goes to the next track
• :RdioFavorites, which plays only your favorited tracks

You might want to add mappings for them:

nnoremap <Leader>rp :RdioPlayPause<CR>
nnoremap <Leader>rl :RdioPlaylists<CR>
nnoremap <Leader>rn :RdioNext<CR>
nnoremap <Leader>rf :RdioFavorites<CR>

Development

• The plugin/ directory contains rdio.vim, which is not auto-generated, and plugin/applescripts/, which is auto-generated
• The js/ directory contains JS which is minified as part of the build process
• The applescripts/ directory contains files which use Erb to bring in and minify the JS, then are copied to plugin/applescripts/.

To re-generate the files in plugin/applescripts/, run rake. Don't edit them directly.
