cordova-plugin-music-controls2 for streaming

[massimilianocom]

From what I read, it's a nice plugin but very little is explained about everything.
For example, can it work for audio streaming such as web radio?
Is it possible to dynamically change the artist name, song title and how?
Can the covers be taken online or only locally?

Yes, just pass the information here

MusicControls.create({
	track       : 'Time is Running Out',		// optional, default : ''
	artist      : 'Muse',						// optional, default : ''
	album       : 'Absolution',     // optional, default: ''
 	cover       : 'albums/absolution.jpg',		// optional, default : nothing
	// cover can be a local path (use fullpath 'file:///storage/emulated/...', or only 'my_image.jpg' if my_image.jpg is in the www folder of your app)
	//			 or a remote url ('http://...', 'https://...', 'ftp://...')

 

Is it possible to dynamically change the artist name, song title and how?

Just call the create method again, but with the new info

 

Can the covers be taken online or only locally?

Both

MusicControls.create({
	...
 	cover       : 'albums/absolution.jpg',		// optional, default : nothing
	// cover can be a local path (use fullpath 'file:///storage/emulated/...', or only 'my_image.jpg' if my_image.jpg is in the www folder of your app)
	//			 or a remote url ('http://...', 'https://...', 'ftp://...')
