PulseAudio Dart Library

This repository contains a Dart client library to interact with PulseAudio, a sound server that provides a sound system for POSIX systems. The library is written in Dart and uses Dart's FFI package to interact with the native PulseAudio library.

Features

• Connect to the PulseAudio server
• Get information about the server, sinks, and sources
• Set the volume and mute status of sinks and sources
• Listen to events from the server, such as sink and source changes

Getting started

To use this library, you will need to have Dart installed on your system. You can then add the package to your project's pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  pulseaudio: ^0.0.7

You can also clone this repository and run the example to see how the library works in practice.

Usage

Here is a simple example of how to use the library to get information about the server and listen to sink changes:

import 'package:pulseaudio/pulseaudio.dart';

void main() async {
  final client = PulseAudioClient();
  client.onServerInfoChanged.listen((event) {
    print(event);
  });
  client.onSinkChanged.listen((event) {
    print(event);
  });
  client.onSourceChanged.listen((event) {
    print(event);
  });
  await client.initialize();
  final serverInfo = await client.getServerInfo();
  print('Server Information:');
  print('Name: ${serverInfo.name}');
  print('Default Sink: ${serverInfo.defaultSinkName}');
  print('Default Source: ${serverInfo.defaultSourceName}');

  final sourceList = await client.getSourceList();
  print('\nAvailable Sources:');
  for (var source in sourceList) {
    print('Source Name: ${source.name}, Description: ${source.description}');
  }

  final sinkList = await client.getSinkList();
  print('\nAvailable Sinks:');
  for (var sink in sinkList) {
    print('Sink Name: ${sink.name}, Description: ${sink.description}');
  }

  await client.setSinkVolume(serverInfo.defaultSinkName, 0.5);

  client.dispose();
}
