Feature description:
The ability to link the application to a Discord Application (Using its application ID) to have the music you are listening to show up as your “Playing now” on Discord.
Problem solved / Brought benefits:
Allows users to share with their friends what music they are listening to if they are using their own self-hosted music rather than a mainstream platform.
Other application solutions:
Feishin has an implementation where the user inputs a Discord Application ID (You can create an application on Discord Developer’s page then copy the ID into the application) and then it will show up on Discord as the attached screenshot. The interface on Feishin is also attached. (feishin/src/main/features/core/discord-rpc/index.ts at development · jeffvli/feishin · GitHub this is the relevant part of Feishin’s codebase).
Additional description and context:
I have also attached a screenshot from the relevant page in Discord Developers panel, where you can get the Application ID (It is on the first page of the application once it is created)
