SSLScrobbler v0.28

Testing sslscrobbler

SSLScrobbler is a Scrobbler for Serato DJ and Serato ScratchLive (http://www.serato.com/) written in PHP. See https://www.last.fm/about/trackmymusic for an explanation of Scrobbling.

SSLScrobbler is designed to update Last.fm, Twitter and/or Discord when a track is playing or played.

It is so named because Serato DJ used to be called Serato Scratch Live (SSL) when I started this project.

SSLScrobbler can easily be customed to, for example, show what's currently playing on a projector, or send information to OBS (Open Broadcast Studio), or used to control other actions based on track listing.

Serato DJ itself logs plays to a binary history file during playback. This app reads the binary file and models what's going on.

The app works on OS X (Mac) and Windows.

1. OPERATING SSLSCROBBLER

You should start SSLScrobbler before starting Serato DJ!, and then close it down after closing down Serato DJ. If you have no idea how to start it, See 1.2 for the 'Getting Started' guide.

To close SSL Scrobbler, press Ctrl-C.

SSLScrobbler will read the current 'session' file from the Serato DJ history folder. It will follow from session to session, but use the -i option if you already have a session open.

## 1.1 Installation

  • OSX (Mac):

    SSLScrobbler needs no particular installation, although if it's not already, you might like to install terminal-notifier ("brew install terminal-notifier")

    There is an app you can download from https://github.com/ben-xo/sslscrobbler/releases

    SSLScrobbler can also be started from Terminal, and has more options this way.

  • Windows Vista, 7, 8 or 10:

    I haven't tested this part in a while - try installing PHP from http://www.anindya.com/ or following the instructions on https://www.php.net/

  • Windows:

    You should install PHP 8 and Growl. You must reboot after installing these, even if it doesn't ask!

    If you're on Windows XP, 32-bit Vista or 32-bit Windows 7, you can download and install PHP from http://windows.php.net/download/ (You probably want the 'Installer' nearest the top of the page, unless you know better.)

    I strongly suggest you make the following change to your php.ini file (which can usually be found in C:\Program Files\PHP). Open the file in Notepad, and then find the line which says...

    display_errors =

    ...and change it to On if it is Off.

    SSLScrobbler is best started from a DOS box / Command prompt.

1.2 Getting Started

SSLScrobbler is designed to be run from the command line, but on macOS there is a simple GUI to help you get started.

TO START:

macOS (super-easy method):

The simplest way to get started is to use the macOS app.

  • Download the macOS.zip file from https://github.com/ben-xo/sslscrobbler/releases
  • unzip it to get SSL Scrobbler.app (with a nice vinyl record icon)
  • Option-click it and choose "Open", then confirm you are sure that it's okay
  • The app will ask you for permission to use SystemUIServer. Say yes. This is so we can pop up questions.
  • It will then pop up some questions. Just follow the prompts.
  • Then start Serato DJ and watch what happens!

macOS (traditional method):

It is more flexible when used from Terminal.

  • Open Terminal (you can open it quickly from Spotlight)

  • Drag the file historyreader.php into the Terminal window, and hit enter. It should say something like:

     $ /Users/ben/Downloads/sslscrobbler/historyreader.php 
    
  • For help and information on options, type --help before hitting enter. e.g:

     $ ./historyreader.php --help
    

Windows:

There's no GUI version for Windows yet. Sorry.

  • Open a DOS box. You can do this by clicking 'Start' -> Run -> typing "cmd" and pressing enter.

  • Type php and then drag the file historyreader.php into the DOS box, and hit enter. It should say something like:

     C:\> php "C:\Documents and Settings\ben\Desktop\historyreader.php"
    
  • For help and information on options, type --help before hitting enter. e.g.:

     C:\> php "C:\Documents and Settings\ben\Desktop\historyreader.php" --help
    

TO QUIT:

To quit SSL Scrobbler, click on its window and press Ctrl-C. (or in the macOS app, press the quit button in the bottom right)

1.3 Quick HOWTO

TO SCROBBLE AS YOU PLAY:

php historyreader.php -L lastfmusername

TO SCROBBLE THE PREVIOUS SET (e.g. from your gig last night):

php historyreader.php -L lastfmusername --post-process

TO SCROBBLE SEVERAL PEOPLE IN THE ROOM:

php historyreader.php -L lastfmusername -L lastfmusername2 -L lastfmusername3

TO TWEET AS YOU PLAY

php historyreader.php -T twitterusername

TO MESSAGE DISCORD AS YOU PLAY

php historyreader.php --discord webhook-name

MAKE TRACK DATA AVAILABLE FOR OBS (OR WHATEVER)

php historyreader.php -J 8080

1.3 Options

Add the following options to the command when running from Terminal / DOS:

-h or --help A reminder of this information.

-i or --immediate Do not wait for the next history file to be created, but use the most recent one.

You must use this option if you started SSLScrobbler mid-way through a session, or if you had to restart SSLScrobbler for some reason.

This option is ignored if you specify the full path to a specific history file.

-v or --verbosity <0-9>: Increase the amount of information shown in the console. If you really want to see a lot about what's going on, try -v 9 .

You should try -v 9 and save the output if you are having problems, before reporting a bug to me, or contacting me for advice...

-l or --log-file <file>: Write the output to a file. (If this option is omitted, output goes to the screen)

-p or --post-process Immediately processes everything in the last history file. Ideal for scrobbling that set you played last night.

Last.fm options: -L or --lastfm <username>: Scrobble / send 'Now Playing' to Last.fm for user .

The first time you specify this, it will ask you to authorize the app to your Last.fm account. The authorization information is stored in a file called lastfm-<username>.txt

NOTE: you can include -L multiple times and scrobble to multiple accounts.

Twitter options: -T or --twitter <session>: Post tracklists to Twitter. It will tweet once for every 'Now Playing'.

The first time you specify this option, it will ask you to authorize the app to your Twitter account. The authorization information is stored in a file called twitter-<session>.txt

NOTE: you can include -T multiple times and tweet to multiple accounts.

Discord options: --discord <session>: Post tracklists to Discord. It will send a message once for every 'Now Playing'.

The first time you specify this option, it will ask you to paste a URL for a webhook which can be provided by your guild admin for a channel on your server. The authorization information is stored in a file called discord-<session>.txt

NOTE: you can include --discord multiple times and message multiple channels.

DB options: -D or --db <key>: Put the now playing track into a database row. It will issue one SQL statement for every 'Now Playing'.

Exactly what SQL is run, and where it is sent, is configued in config.php.

IRCCat options: -I or --irccat host:port#channel Put the now playing track into an IRC channel using IRCCat. (IRCCat sold separately - https://github.com/RJ/irccat).

JSON Server options -J or --json port Makes the current playing track info available at http://<your ip>:<port>/nowplaying.json. Also, makes it available in a way which can be styled using CSS (which e.g. for OBS) at http://<your ip>:<port>/nowplaying.html

2. HOW IT WORKS

SSLScrobbler monitors the current Serato DJ history file. The history file is a binary file containing information about all the tracks in the session. Serato DJ updates this file every time you add a track to a deck or eject a track from a deck (and in a few other situations). The history file actually contains a lot of information - everything you see in the history pane, and then some. ScratchLive never removes or rewrites information in this file while you're performing, so it may append several chunks of information referring to the same track. (Later, when you shut Serato DJ down, it compacts the file to remove duplicate information).

However, SSLScrobbler does not have access to the actual play time or play position of the songs, so it has to guess this.

3. ADVANCED USE

  • If you want to enable or disable plugins, or change API keys, or other advanced "configuration", copy config.php-default to config.php and edit. You can also change e.g. the Twitter template here.

  • If you're interested in exploring the Serato DJ binary file format, check out the --dump option. You can even use this to dump non-history files (such as the file database v2).

4. TROUBLESHOOTING

  • SSLScrobbler looks for history files in the default locations, which are:

    Mac:

    • $HOME/Music/_Serato_/History/Sessions

      ($HOME is usually e.g. /Users/<username>)

    Windows Vista / Windows 7 / Windows 10:

    • %USERPROFILE%\Music\_Serato_\History\Sessions

      (%USERPROFILE% is usually e.g. C:\Users\<username)

    Windows XP:

    • %USERPROFILE%\My Documents\My Music\_Serato_\History\Sessions

      (%USERPROFILE% is usually e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\<username>)

  • make sure display_errors = On in your php.ini if you want more useful help, and before reporting bugs.

  • If the internet is down or drops out, Scrobbling to Last.fm may make the whole app freeze until the scrobbling times out. This means that updates to Now Playing will not appear during this period, although no scrobbles will be lost.

  • If you find Scrobbling, Tweeting etc to be particularly slowing down the app (that is causing delays when Now Playing is not updated), try installing the PCNTL extension to PHP. (Without the PCNTL extension, the app will be single-threaded).

5. FOR DEVELOPERS

5.1 Plugins

It's quite easy to write plugins for SSLScrobbler. Examine the examples in the folder SSL/Plugins.

A plugin is a class which implements SSLPlugin, and can provide zero-or-more Observers for the different events (zero would be quite uninteresting, though) from the getObservers() method.

The following observer types are currently provided:

  • TickObserver - triggered by a timer interrupt (usually every 2 seconds).
  • SSLDiffObserver - notified of new changes to the Serato DJ history file.
  • TrackChangeObserver - triggered when a track is loaded or removed from a deck.
  • NowPlayingObserver - triggered when a track becomes the 'Now Playing' track
  • ScrobbleObserver - triggered when a track is definitively scrobble-able.

5.2 Unit Tests

Run with phpunit:

  • phpunit --bootstrap Tests/bootstrap.php Tests

5.3 Architecture

### 5.3.1 Runtime Model

While running, the SSLScrobbler engine is event driven (see 5.1 for the list of events). Here are the main object collaborations and the ways they communicate. The interactions happen in serial, in the order they are numbered.

The following diagram shows how the running app is strung together. HistoryReader sets these objects up in its monitor() method, then asks the TickSource to start ticking. Every tick, the following happens:

  1. The TickSource sends ticks (every 2 seconds or so) to SSLHistoryFileMonitor, which attempts to read from the current history file.
  2. If there is new info available in the file, the SSLHistoryFileMonitor sends a diff event (in the form of an SSLHistoryDiffDom, which in turn contains SSLTracks) to the SSLRealtimeModel.
  3. The SSLRealtimeModel models what Serato is doing - i.e. which tracks are currently on each deck. It inspects the SSLHistoryDiffDoms that it receives to work out if a new track has been started, or a track has been stopped.
  4. If a track has changed (started or stopped), the SSLRealtimeModel then notifies the NowPlayingModel, ScrobbleModel and RealtimeModelPrinter.
  5. The RealtimeModelPrinter prints this info to the console.
  6. The NowPlayingModel takes info on track changes to work out which track has been on the deck long enough to be considered "Now Playing".
  7. The ScrobbleModel takes info on track changes to work out which tracks can be scrobbled.
  8. Whenever the "Now Playing" track changes (or track play stops entirely), the NowPlayingModel sends events - mostly to plugins such as the Twitter plugin, Scrobbler, and Growl or Terminal notifier.
  9. Likewise, when a track becomes Scrobbleable, the ScrobbleModel sends events to the Twitter, Scrobble and Growl plugins, etc.
  10. The various plugins then do their bits such as posting to Twitter.

Here's the diagram:

Various things have been omitted from this diagram, in particular the details of how the PluginManager works. The PluginManager is capable of activating, deactivating and reconfiguring plugins in the event chain at run time, and is used for configuration on-the-fly. It does this by inserting a layer between each of the observers which keeps track of the various event observers.

5.3.2 ScratchLive File Format Model

ScratchLive stores most of its data in a chunked format, where a chunk header is 8-bytes (4-byte identifier and a 4-byte length) followed by bytes. Chunks themselves can contain other chunks. Within these sub-chunks are fields, starting with a 4-byte field ID. The meaning of the fields depends on the chunk type. Some fields contain fixed-length data, others contain a 4-byte length and then that many bytes of variable-length data.

Whilst exploring the file format, I invented an unpacking language called XOUP (short for "XO's UnPacker"). XOUP is interpretted with XoupInterpreter or compiled into Unpacker classes with XoupCompiler (all this happens automatically). See the comments in XoupInterpreter for info on XOUP.

ScratchLiveScrobbler, so far, recognises 7 chunk types. Some of these are "compound chunks" (that is, they contain other chunks), and others contain data ("struct chunks"):

Compound Chunks:

  • OENT - Session files have these, each containing a single ADAT for a track
  • OREN - Session files have these, each containing a single UEN for a deletion
  • OSES - The session index has these, each with a single ADAT for a session
  • OCOL - The session index file has these each with UCOK and UCOW sub-chunks.

Struct Chunks:

  • VRSN

    • Header chunk, contains a file format string. Occurs in all files
    • Parsed by SSLVrsnChunk into an SSLVersion object using SSLVersionVrsn.xoup
  • ADAT - two of these, OENT ADAT and OSES ADAT

    • Data chunk, contains fields. Fields meaning file format dependent
    1. OENT version, parsed by SSLAdatChunk into an SSLTrack object using SSLTrackAdat.xoup
    2. OSES version, parsed by SSLAdatChunk into an SSLSession object using SSLSessionAdat.xoup
  • UENT

    • Event chunk, seems to contain just an identifier referring to an OENT ADAT.
    • Parsed by SSLUentChunk into an SSLTrackDelete object using SSLTrackDeleteUent.xoup
    • These occur transiently in session files when an entry is deleted from the playlist. Serato DJ seems to resolve these and rewrite the history file at shut-down time.
  • UCOK and UCOW

    • I believe these represent column ordering and column width in the Serato DJ history pane.
    • I have not written parsers for these yet.

Unknown chunk types are safely ignored (modelled by SSLUnknownChunk - in --dump mode, these will provide a pretty hexdump to aid with implementation).

The Serato DJ crate file (database v2) is also in this format, but I have not modelled any of it. Have fun exploring these files using --dump :)

5.3.3 Example content

Here's an example of what --dump might output on a history file:

CHUNK<vrsn>: 
	version => 1.0/Serato Scratch LIVE Review

CHUNK<oent>: 
		CHUNK<adat>: 
			row => 3137

			filename => 04 - )E!3( - Bad Company - Grunge 2.mp3
			title => Grunge 2
			artist => )E|3( - Bad Company
			album => Book Of The Bad (CD2)
			genre => Drum & Bass
			length => 06:25.31

			added => 0
			updatedAt => 1272398677

The same data, without the XOUP parser, would have printed this:

All of the field names in the properly parsed output were worked out with educated guess-work. (The list of fields shown for the track in the example is representative, but not all possible fields are saved with each row in the history file. Other possible fields include bpm, album artist, etc).

Here's how the software side of it is strung together.

The SSLHistoryFileDiffMonitor is responsible for monitoring the file by continually reading it to see what's been appended. Once it sees new data, it will parse the data into chunks and give those raw chunks to an SSLHistoryDom to look after. This first phase looks like this:

SSLHistoryFileDiffMonitor (keeps reading a History file to look for more chunks)
  | read()
  v
  SSLParser <new SSLHistoryDom $tree> (a parser that reads the file into the chosen DOM)
    | parse(<filename>)
    | readChunks()
    v
    SSLChunkReader (reads all chunks from a file and parses them)
      | $dom->addChunks( getChunks() ) 
      v
      SSLChunkParser (reads a specific chunk from the file and constructs concrete chunks)
        | readChunk() // loop
        | ->parseFromFile()
        v
        SSLChunkFactory (creates concrete chunk instances from the chunk headers)
          | newChunk()
          v
          SSLChunk <SSLVrsnChunk / SSLOentChunk / SSLAdatChunk / ... etc>
          |  | __construct()
          |  v
          |  SSLCompoundChunk (such as OENT, breaks down into more chunks)
          |   | <the entire SSLChunkParser stack recursively from SSLChunkParser down>
          |   
          v
          SSLStructChunk (such as ADAT. contains actual data).

At this point, the $tree object contains all of the raw data separated into chunks which know what they are and how to extract data from themselves.

The full data is not actually parsed and extracted from the $tree object until someone calls $tree->getTracks(). However, as the SSLHistoryFileDiffMonitor generates diffs, the next thing it does is to get the tracks from this DOM and the previous DOM and diff them. The data extraction part looks like this:

SSLHistoryFileDiffMonitor
 | getNewOrUpdatedTracksSince()
 v 
 SSLHistoryDom
   | getTracks() // gets all data but filters it just to SSLTracks
   | ->getData() 
   v 
   SSLChunk <any of the various chunk types, e.g. OENT>
     | getDataInto(new SSLStruct) // the HistoryDom knows the appropriate struct type
     |                            // e.g. it knows that an OENT ADAT needs <SSLTrack>s
     v
     SSLStruct
      | getUnpacker() // the struct knows its own unpacker (a XOUP file)
      v
      XoupLoader
        |
        v
        XoupCompiler
          |
          v
          Unpacker (a compiled subclass of Unpacker such as XOUPSSLTrackAdatUnpacker)

At this point, we have concrete SSLTrack objects.
