This is a quick and dirty standalone HTTP remote control server.
The interface looks rather crude but as it uses templates it can be customized easily.

It provides limited functionality, including
- play, pause, stop, next, previous
- showing the current song and status
- listing the playlist and selecting a song

You will need the foo_controlserver component:

The listening port and host&port of the machine foobar is running can be configured by editing webfoo.conf.txt
but in most cases the standard values will do it.

With standard configuration, the interface can be accessed through
http://localhost:2000

It's written in Ruby because I wanted to try out that language.

Any idea why I always get an "Internal Server Error" for the playlist, when I try to access webfoo from another computer on the LAN? No problem at all when using localhost.. edit: Actually does it randomly on refresh on localhost, too.

The error is "undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass".

I compiled the source with latest versions of Ruby and rubyscript2exe, and it seemed to help somewhat. However webfoo still works very slow when accessed from outside localhost.

Help.. Anyone?
