Liquidsoap scripting language reference

The Source / … categories contain all functions that return sources. The Input functions are those which build elementary sources (playing files, synthesizing sound, etc.). The Output functions are those which take a source and register it for being streamed to the outside (file, soundcard, audio server, etc.). The Visualization functions are experimental ones that let you visualize in real-time some aspects of the audio stream. The Sound Processing functions are those which basically work on the source as a continuous audio stream. They would typically be mixers of streams, audio effects or analysis. Finally, Track Processing functions are basically all others, often having a behaviour that depends on or affects the extra information that liquidsoap puts in streams: track limits and metadata.

harbor.http.register

Register a HTTP handler on the harbor. The handler function receives as argument the full requested information and returns the answer sent to the client, including HTTP headers. This function registers exact path matches, i.e. "/users", "/index.hml" as well as fragment matches, i.e. "/user/:id", "/users/:id/collabs/:cid", etc. If you need more advanced matching, use harbor.http.register.regexp to match regular expressions. Paths are resolved in the order they are declared and can override default harbor paths such as metadata handlers. The handler receives the request details as a record and a response handler. Matched fragments are reported as part of the response query parameter. The response handler can be used to fill up details about the http response, which will be converted into a plain HTTP response string after the handler returns.

normalize

Normalization the volume of a stream (this is also called automatic gain control). Dynamic normalization of the signal is sometimes the only option (for instance, for live sources), and can make a listening experience much nicer.

If possible, consider using some track-based normalization techniques such as those based on ReplayGain. The implementation of Liquidsoap < 2.0 was renamed to normalize.old.

  • self_sync (of type () -> bool): Is the source currently controlling its own real-time loop.
  • set_url (of type ({string}) -> unit): Set the source’s url.
  • shutdown (of type () -> unit): Shutdown the output or source.
  • skip (of type () -> unit): Skip to the next track.
  • start (of type () -> unit): Ask the source or output to start.
  • status (of type () -> string): Return the current status of the source, either “stopped” (the source isn’t trying to relay the HTTP stream), “starting” (polling task is about to begin) “polling” (attempting to connect to the HTTP stream), “connected ” (connected to , buffering or playing back the stream) or “stopping” (source is stopping).
  • stop (of type () -> unit): Ask the source or output to stop.
  • time (of type () -> float): Get a source’s time, based on its assigned clock.
  • url (of type () -> string): Return the source’s current url.

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the source ID.
  • bind_address (of type string, which defaults to "0.0.0.0"): Address to bind on the local machine. Used only in listener mode
  • clock_safe (of type bool, which defaults to true): Force the use of a dedicated clock
  • connection_timeout (of type float?, which defaults to null): Timeout, in seconds, after which initial connection operations are aborted if no data was received. Uses library’s default if nulll. Used only in client mode.
  • content_type (of type string, which defaults to "application/ffmpeg"): Content-Type (mime type) used to find a decoder for the input stream.
  • dump (of type string, which defaults to ""): Dump received data to the given file for debugging. Unused is empty.

output.audio_video

Output a stream with audio and video using the default operator. The input source does not need to be infallible, blank will just be played during failures.

Type:

(?id : string?, ?fallible : bool, ?on_start : (() -> unit),
 ?on_stop : (() -> unit), ?start : bool, source(audio=pcm('A),
 video=canvas('a))) -> unit

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the source ID.

Track / FFmpeg filter

ffmpeg.filter.audio.output

Return an audio track from a filter’s output

Type:

(?id : string?, ?pass_metadata : bool, ffmpeg.filter.graph,
 ffmpeg.filter.audio) -> ffmpeg.audio.raw('a)

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • pass_metadata (of type bool, which defaults to true): Pass ffmpeg stream metadata to liquidsoap
  • (unlabeled) (of type ffmpeg.filter.graph)
  • (unlabeled) (of type ffmpeg.filter.audio)

Track / Track processing

track.audio.defer

Defer an audio track by a given amount of time. Track will be available when the given delay has been fully buffered. Use this operator instead of buffer when buffering large amount of data as initial delay.

Type:

(?id : string?, delay : float, ?overhead : float?, pcm_s16('a)) ->
pcm_s16('a)

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • delay (of type float): Duration of the delay, in seconds.
  • overhead (of type float?, which defaults to null): Duration of the delay overhead, in seconds. Defaults to frame size.
  • (unlabeled) (of type pcm_s16('a)): Track to delay.

track.metadata

Return the metadata associated with the given track

Type:

(?id : string?, 'a) -> metadata where 'a is a track

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • (unlabeled) (of type anything that is a track)

track.metadata.map

Rewrite metadata on the fly using a function.

Type:

(?id : string?, (([string * string]) -> [string * string]), ?update : bool,
 ?strip : bool, ?insert_missing : bool, metadata) -> metadata

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • (unlabeled) (of type ([string * string]) -> [string * string]): A function that returns new metadata.
  • update (of type bool, which defaults to true): Update metadata. If false, existing metadata are cleared and only returned values are set as new metadata.
  • strip (of type bool, which defaults to false): Completely remove empty metadata. Operates on both empty values and empty metadata chunk.
  • insert_missing (of type bool, which defaults to true): Treat track beginnings without metadata as having empty ones. The operational order is: create empty if needed, map and strip if enabled.
  • (unlabeled) (of type metadata)

track.metadata.merge

Merge metadata from all given tracks. If two sources have metadata with the same label at the same time, the one from the last source in the list takes precedence.

Type:

(?id : string?, [metadata]) -> metadata

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • (unlabeled) (of type [metadata])

track.track_marks

Return the track marks associated with the given track

Type:

(?id : string?, 'a) -> track_marks where 'a is a track

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • (unlabeled) (of type anything that is a track)

Track / Video processing

ffmpeg.filter.video.output

Return a video track from a filter’s output

Type:

(?id : string?, ?pass_metadata : bool, ffmpeg.filter.graph,
 ffmpeg.filter.video) -> ffmpeg.video.raw('a)

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • pass_metadata (of type bool, which defaults to true): Pass ffmpeg stream metadata to liquidsoap

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to null): Force the value of the track ID.
  • (unlabeled) (of type [canvas('a)])

track.video.add_image

Add a static image on the given video track.

Type:

(?id : string?, ?fallible : bool, ?width : {int}?, ?height : {int}?,
 ?x : {int}, ?y : {int}, file : {string}, canvas('a)) -> canvas('a)

Arguments:

  • id (of type string?, which defaults to "track.video.add_image"): Force the value of the source ID.
  • fallible (of type bool, which defaults to false): Whether we are allowed to fail (in case the file is non-existent or invalid).
