free_port() hands out a port that is free when asked, not when soulfind binds it, and soulfind exits when the port has gone. The library harness also gave soulfind only five seconds and did not notice a child that had died, so either read as "no soulfind server" and failed the test. It now waits ten seconds like the CLI harness, never takes a child that has exited as up, and retries on a fresh port; the CLI harness gets the same retry. A listener that takes the port first can still answer before soulfind has got as far as binding, so the two library tests that bind listeners outside the server gate now take it too: while a soulfind starts, no other test in that binary binds anything.
soulseek-rs
A Soulseek client for the terminal: a full-screen TUI, and a one-shot command surface built for scripts and agents.
Website: https://re-invention.nl/soulseek-rs/
Installation
brew install michel/tap/soulseek-rs # macOS and Linux, prebuilt
cargo install soulseek-rs # anywhere with a Rust toolchain
Usage
Run it with no subcommand for the interactive TUI:
soulseek-rs
Anything else is a one-shot command that runs headless. stdout carries records only, stderr carries progress, and the exit code carries the verdict:
soulseek-rs search <QUERY> # print matching files
soulseek-rs get <QUERY> # search, pick the best, download
soulseek-rs download <USER> <PATH> # fetch one known file
soulseek-rs download --stdin # fetch files listed on stdin
soulseek-rs browse <USER> # list a user's shared files
soulseek-rs serve [--follow] # stay online sharing, stream uploads
soulseek-rs whoami # confirm credentials and connection
soulseek-rs user <NAME> # a peer's status and share counts
soulseek-rs room list|say|users|listen
soulseek-rs message send|read
soulseek-rs shares list|add|remove|status|reindex
soulseek-rs config path|list|get|set
soulseek-rs portmap # test automatic port mapping
soulseek-rs completions install # tab completion for bash/zsh/fish
Add --json for newline-delimited JSON instead of tab-separated text, so
commands compose:
soulseek-rs search "rjd2" --json \
| jq -c 'select(.size > 5000000 and .free_slot)' \
| soulseek-rs download --stdin
Exit codes: 0 success, 2 usage or config, 3 connect or login, 4 nothing
found, 5 timed out, 6 transfer failed, 7 session lost mid-command, 1
unexpected error.
The full README documents every
command, record shape, flag, environment variable and config.toml key.
