ffplayout-api

ffplayout-api (ffpapi) is a non strict REST API for ffplayout. It makes it possible to control the engine, read and manipulate the config, save playlist, etc.

To be able to use the API it is necessary to initialize the settings database first. To do that, run:

ffpapi -i

Then add an admin user:

ffpapi -u <USERNAME> -p <PASSWORD> -m <MAIL ADDRESS>

Then run the API thru the systemd service, or like:

ffpapi -l 127.0.0.1:8080

If you plan to run ffpapi with systemd set permission from /usr/share/ffplayout and content to user www-data:www-data.
