Discord Rich Presence Plugin (Rust)
A Navidrome plugin that displays your currently playing track on Discord using Rich Presence. This is the Rust implementation demonstrating how to use the generated nd-host library.
⚠️ Warning
This plugin is for demonstration purposes only. It requires storing your Discord token in the Navidrome configuration file, which:
- Is not secure (tokens should never be stored in plain text)
- May violate Discord's Terms of Service
Use at your own risk.
Features
- Shows currently playing track on Discord Rich Presence
- Displays album artwork
- Shows track progress with start/end timestamps
- Automatically clears presence when track finishes
- Supports multiple users
Capabilities
This plugin implements three capabilities to demonstrate the nd-host library:
- Scrobbler: Receives now-playing events from Navidrome
- SchedulerCallback: Handles heartbeat and activity clearing timers
- WebSocketCallback: Communicates with Discord gateway
Configuration
Configure in the Navidrome UI (Settings → Plugins → discord-rich-presence):
| Key | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
clientid |
Your Discord application ID | 123456789012345678 |
users |
Comma-separated list of username:token pairs |
alice:token123,bob:token456 |
Getting Configuration Values
-
Client ID: Create a Discord Application at https://discord.com/developers/applications and copy the Application ID
-
Discord Token: This requires extracting your user token from Discord (not recommended for security reasons)
-
Multiple Users: Separate user mappings with commas:
users = "user1:token1,user2:token2"
Building
# From the plugins/examples directory
make discord-rich-presence-rs.ndp
# This creates discord-rich-presence-rs.ndp containing:
# - manifest.json
# - plugin.wasm
Installation
- Build the plugin using the command above
- Copy the
.ndpfile to your Navidrome plugins directory - Enable and configure the plugin in the Navidrome UI (Settings → Plugins)
- Restart Navidrome if needed
Using nd-host Library
This plugin demonstrates how to use the generated Rust host function wrappers:
use nd_host::{artwork, cache, scheduler, websocket};
// Get artwork URL
let (url, _) = artwork::artwork_get_track_url(track_id, 300)?;
// Cache operations
cache::cache_set_string("key", "value", 3600)?;
let (value, exists) = cache::cache_get_string("key")?;
// Schedule tasks
scheduler::scheduler_schedule_one_time(60, "payload", "task-id")?;
scheduler::scheduler_schedule_recurring("@every 30s", "heartbeat", "heartbeat-task")?;
// WebSocket operations
let conn_id = websocket::websocket_connect("wss://example.com/socket")?;
websocket::websocket_send_text(&conn_id, "Hello")?;
