while the main musikcube app runs in the console, you can also stream audio from (and even remote control) musikcube using the `musikdroid` android app, which can be downloaded in the `releases` section above. it looks like this:

# streaming server
2016-08-28 20:16:09 +00:00
2017-07-20 00:36:50 +00:00
musikcube ships with a streaming audio server enabled by default. it runs a websocket server on port 7905, used for metadata retrieval. an http server runs on port 7906, and is used to serve (optionally transcoded) audio data to clients.

2017-07-04 19:09:22 +00:00
**it's important to understand that, out of the box, the server (and remote api) should NOT be considered safe for use outside of a local network**. the websockets service only supports a simple password challenge, and the audio http server just handles Basic authorization. it does not provide ssl or tls. the server also stores the password in plain text in a settings file on the local machine.
2016-08-28 20:16:09 +00:00
2017-07-01 02:16:47 +00:00
you can fix some of this using a reverse proxy to provide ssl termination. details in the [ssl-server-setup section ](https://github.com/clangen/musikcube/wiki/ssl-server-setup ). while this improves things, you should exercise caution exposing these services over the internet.

# sdk
2020-10-13 02:23:17 +00:00
the musikcube sdk is a set of small, pure-virtual c++ classes and a handful of enums and constants. they're still in the process of being slimmed down. you can see what they currently look like here: https://github.com/clangen/musikcube/tree/master/src/musikcore/sdk
2017-03-05 21:24:29 +00:00
# dependencies
2017-06-18 05:48:47 +00:00
musikcube would not be possible without the following excellent free, open source, and (in the case of some macos and win32 APIs) non-free projects and libraries:
