ears is a simple library to play sounds and music in Rust.

• Provides an access to the OpenAL spatialization functionality in a simple way.
• Accepts a lot of audio formats, thanks to libsndfile.

Documentation

You need to install OpenAL and libsndfile on your system:

Fedora:

sudo dnf install openal-soft-devel libsndfile-devel

Debian or Ubuntu:

sudo apt install libopenal-dev libsndfile1-dev

brew install openal-soft libsndfile

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-libsndfile mingw-w64-x86_64-openal

cargo run --example basic
cargo run --example many_sounds
cargo run --example music
cargo run --example record
cargo run --example simple_player

ears provides two ways to play audio files:

• The Sound class, which represents light sounds who can share a buffer of samples with another Sound.
• The Music class, which represents bigger sound and can't share sample buffers.
