radion is an internet radio CLI client, written in Bash.

https://gitlab.com/christosangel/radion

Radion can be customized as far as the station selecting program is concerned. The user can choose between:

  • read

read

  • fzf

fzf

  • rofi

rofi

  • dmenu

dmenu

Update: Introduced new feature: customizing prompt text for fzf dmenu and rofi.

Update: MacOS support added now thanks to Andrea Schäfer

Also, I was forced by my daughter to add some anime radio stations...

Update: Recording functionality added, with the use of another (you guessed it) bash script

icy

Also options in read as Preferred selector are also case insensitive.

Any feedback is appreciated!

Yeah right, that's what my co-worker said writing the most obscure bash scripts... *looks at code Ah, it is easy and well structured indeed. Nice :-) .

I know this feeling! However this script in its essence is quite simple...

Maybe simple to Chris Angel and his magic.

Try this, it is less pretty, but in essence, the same:

cat ~/.cache/radion/stations.txt |fzf|awk '{print $1}'|xargs mpv

Sorry, I was mainly trying to say, "Good job, it's impressive!" Your name is close to the name of a famous magician, so I was referring to your code as magic. Bit of a dumb joke.
