# CoverGrid
CoverGrid (mcg) is a client for the [Music Player
Daemon](http://www.musicpd.org) (MPD), focusing on albums instead of single
tracks. It is not intended to be a replacement for your favorite MPD client but
an addition to get a better album-experience.
Website: https://www.suruatoel.xyz/codes/mcg
License: [GPL](http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html) v3
Dependencies:
* [Python](http://www.python.org) 3
* [GTK](http://www.gtk.org) 3 (>= 3.22) ([python-gobject](https://live.gnome.org/PyGObject))
* [Avahi](http://www.avahi.org) (optional)
* [python-keyring](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/keyring) (optional)
* [meson](https://mesonbuild.com/) and [ninja](https://ninja-build.org/) (building)
Additionally a [MPD](http://www.musicpd.org) server (version >= 0.21.0) is
required at runtime.
## Building
Build the application with _meson_ and _ninja_:
$ meson build
$ ninja -C build
## Running/Testing
For testing the application and running it without (system-wide) installation,
donwload/clone the code, build it with the `--prefix` option and install it
with `ninja`:
$ meson --prefix $(pwd)/install build
$ ninja -C build
$ ninja -C build install
After that you can run it with _mesons_ `devenv` command:
$ meson devenv -C build src/mcg
## Installing
Install the application system-wide with _meson_ (after building):
$ ninja -C build install
Note: _On Linux using the distributions package manager is the preferred way
of installing applications system-wide._
