# Stream plugin
|
||
|
||
A stream plugin is (this might change in future) an executable binary or script that is started by the server for a specific stream and offers playback control capabilities and provides information about the stream's state, as well as metadata for the currently playing track.
|
||
The Snapcast server communicates via stdin/stdout with the plugin and sends newline delimited JSON-RPC commands and receives responses and notifications from the plugin, as described below. In upcoming releases shared library plugins might be supported as well.
|
||
|
||
