Lightning Jukebox

A Lightning powered Jukebox ⚡️ Pay with Bitcoin to choose your music.

Built with Lightning Charge, plays music from YouTube.

HOWTO

1. Setup Lightning Charge.

2. Install Lightning Jukebox and start jukeboxd:

   $ npm install -g lightning-jukebox
    
   $ jukeboxd --charge-token mySecretToken --price '0.0001 BTC'
   Jukebox server running on http://localhost:6100

   You may pick a different theme from bootswatch by specifying --theme [name] (the default is darkly).

3. Navigate to http://localhost:6100/ on the computer playing the music and click Spawn YouTube player. This will open a new youtube window in a new tab. Make sure keep both the page on localhost:6100 and the youtube window open. You can use the youtube window to start playing some initial music.

   

4. The payment page (http://localhost:6100/pay) allows users to pay for music selection. You can make this page available over the internet, or set it up on a local device near the jukebox (like a tablet).

   

   Once a payment is made, a push notification will be sent to the player window (via websockets), which will open the requested song in the spawned youtube window.

   Payments can also be made directly to the API:

   # with a search string 
   $ BOLT11=`curl http://localhost:6100/invoice -d video='are you shpongled full album'`
   $ lightning-cli decodepay $BOLT11
   $ lightning-cli pay $BOLT11
    
   # with a specific video id 
   $ lightning-cli pay `curl http://localhost:6100/invoice \
                        -d video=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDiZG-eAk30'

Why a separate YouTube tab instead of embedding the video player?

So that "auto play next" works.
