Crypto Ticker Plugin

This is a WebSocket-based WASM plugin for Navidrome that displays real-time cryptocurrency prices from Coinbase.

Features

• Connects to Coinbase WebSocket API to receive real-time ticker updates
• Configurable to track multiple cryptocurrency pairs
• Implements WebSocket callback handlers for message processing
• Automatically reconnects on connection loss using the scheduler service
• Displays price, best bid, best ask, and 24-hour percentage change

Configuration

Configure in the Navidrome UI (Settings → Plugins → crypto-ticker):

The plugin will append -USD to any symbol without a trading pair specified.

How it Works

1. On plugin initialization, connects to Coinbase's WebSocket API
2. Subscribes to ticker updates for the configured cryptocurrencies
3. Incoming ticker data is processed via nd_websocket_on_text_message callback
4. On connection loss, schedules a reconnection attempt via the scheduler service
5. Reconnection is attempted until successful

Building

To build the plugin and package as .ndp:

# Using TinyGo (recommended - smaller binary)
tinygo build -o plugin.wasm -target wasip1 -buildmode=c-shared .
zip -j crypto-ticker.ndp manifest.json plugin.wasm

Or from the plugins/examples/ directory:

make crypto-ticker.ndp

Installation

Copy the resulting crypto-ticker.ndp to your Navidrome plugins folder.

Files

• main.go - Main plugin implementation
• go.mod - Go module file

PDK

This plugin imports the Navidrome PDK subpackages directly:

import (
    "github.com/navidrome/navidrome/plugins/pdk/go/host"
    "github.com/navidrome/navidrome/plugins/pdk/go/lifecycle"
    "github.com/navidrome/navidrome/plugins/pdk/go/scheduler"
    "github.com/navidrome/navidrome/plugins/pdk/go/websocket"
)

The go.mod file uses replace directives to point to the local packages for development.

For more details, see the source code in main.go.
