Configuration

Clematis can be configured using a JSON file. On Linux, the path is ~/.config/Clematis/config.json. ~/.config can be changed to any dir with the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME env variable.

It does not create a default config file, but for reference these are the configurable fields:

{
	"vars": [""], // define a list of vars for the presence from the metadata (reference from `playerctl metadata`)
	"blacklist": [""], // list of blacklisted clients
	"whitelist": [""], // list of whitelisted clients (ignored if empty)
	"useIdentifiers": false, // use mpris player identifiers (as listed by `playerctl -l`) instead of names
	"logLevel": "info", // level for log (accepts info, debug and error)
	"presence": {
		"details": "{title}" // the top text in the presence
		"state": "{artist} {album}", // the bottom text in the presence
	},
	"playerPresence": {
		// define unique presence data per player
		// name used is what shows up on clematis startup
		"cmus": {
			// the fields here are the same as `presence`
		}
	}
}

The already provided metadata vars are:

• title - Name of the track
• artist - Name of artist(s), joined by comma and prefixed with by
• album - Name of album, prefixed with on Vars can be used in the presence fields when they are surrounded by {}, like {artist}
