# MPV plugins in Rust
Bindings for libmpv client API that allow you to create plugins for MPV in Rust.
This is a fork of [TheCactusVert/mpv-client](https://github.com/TheCactusVert/mpv-client) that supports developing mpv c plugins on windows.
Currently, this crate is compatible with the original one.
## Example
Here is an example for your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[package]
name = "mpv-plugin"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"
[lib]
name = "mpv_plugin"
crate-type = ["cdylib"]
[dependencies]
mpv-client-dyn = "0.5.0"
```
And then the code `src/lib.rs`:
```rust
use mpv_client_dyn::{mpv_handle, Event, Handle};
#[no_mangle]
extern "C" fn mpv_open_cplugin(handle: *mut mpv_handle) -> std::os::raw::c_int {
let client = Handle::from_ptr(handle);
println!("Hello world from Rust plugin {}!", client.name());
loop {
match client.wait_event(-1.) {
Event::Shutdown => { return 0; },
event => { println!("Got event: {}", event); },
}
}
}
```
