# 🎵 bum[](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/bum/)[](./LICENSE.md)[](https://travis-ci.org/dylanaraps/bum)[](https://www.patreon.com/dyla)`bum` is a daemon that downloads album art for songs playing in `mpd`/`mopidy` and displays them in a little window. `bum` doesn't loop on a timer, instead it waits for `mpd`/`mopidy` to send a `player` event. When it receives a `player` event it wakes up and downloads album art for the current playing track. This makes `bum` lightweight and makes it idle at `~0%` CPU usage.`bum` uses [musicbrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/) to source and download cover art, if an album is missing it's cover art you can easily create an account and fill in the data yourself. `bum` outputs a `release-id` which you can use to find the exact entry on musicbrainz.Note: `bum` is meant to be used with files that don't have embedded album art (`mopidy-spotify`).## Dependencies- `python 3.6+`- `python-mpv`- `python-mpd2`- `musicbrainzngs`## Installation```shpip3 install --user bum```## Usage```shusage: bum [-h] [--size "px"] [--cache_dir "/path/to/dir"] [--version]bum - Download and display album art for mpd tracks.optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --size "px" what size to display the album art in. --cache_dir "/path/to/dir" Where to store the downloaded cover art. --version Print "bum" version. --port Use a custom mpd port.```## DonateDonations will allow me to spend more time working on `bum`.If you like `bum` and want to give back in some way you can donate here:**https://patreon.com/dyla**
