MPRIS Discord Presence is a Python application designed to integrate music playback information from various MPRIS-compatible media players with Discord's Rich Presence functionality. It displays information on the track currently playing, as well as player icons on the Discord status. On Linux systems, thanks to MPRIS, which enables the system to display the media currently playing on a wide variety of media players (including web browsers) in the user interface, this script retrieves this data and displays it directly in the Discord profile using Discord Rich Presence (Discord RPC) technology. This requires the Discord client to be installed on the system.
This integration provides an enriched user experience, allowing you to share your currently playing multimedia content with your Discord community, while personalizing your profile with detailed information and player-specific icons. Whether you're listening to music, watching a video or a podcast, MPRIS Discord Presence makes these moments visible and shareable with your circle on Discord, adding a social layer to your multimedia experience.

For your MPRIS Discord Presence application, music player icons are downloaded and configured in the Art Assets of your Discord application via the Discord Developer Portal.These icons are used to customize the appearance of your Discord Rich Presence, displaying the player in use. In contrast, the MinIO or AWS S3 bucket is used to store the album art and video thumbnails that are displayed in your Discord Rich Presence. It's crucial to create this bucket to store these images and configure it to allow public access. This ensures that Discord can access the images and display them correctly in the rich presence. The bucket should only contain images intended for public sharing, as access to them is open to all. Be sure to follow the bucket creation steps provided by your storage service (MinIO or AWS S3) and adjust the privacy settings to allow public access to images.

Uploading Icons to Your Discord Bot:
- Ensure you have a folder named
playersIconscontaining all the player icons you wish to use. - Navigate to the Discord Developer Portal, select your application, and go to the "Rich Presence" > "Art Assets" section.
- Upload each icon from the
playersIconsfolder to your Discord application. The name you give each icon in the Discord Developer Portal should match exactly with the keys in theICON_NAMESdictionary within your script.
It is crucial to add all the icons from the playersIcons folder one by one into your Discord application, ensuring each icon's name in the Discord Developer Portal corresponds to its intended use within your application, as specified in the ICON_NAMES dictionary.
Run the application:
python main.pyThe script will automatically update your Discord presence with the currently playing track information from the active MPRIS media player.
