Reference
Parameter and interface contracts, grouped by operational scope. Check the implementation whenever historical documentation and release examples differ.
- 01Authentication roles in Icecast 2.5Read Icecast 2.5 role matching and permissions separately, recognise compatibility settings and design a narrowly scoped listener policy.
- 02Configuration reference by operational taskFind Icecast configuration settings by scope, understand their units and version boundaries, and follow the linked guides before changing behaviour.
- 03Connect a URL authentication backendUse the Icecast 2.5 URL-role interface, define callback actions and result headers, and test rejection, time limits and backend failure safely.
- 04Interpret statistics without confusing countersDistinguish current listeners from cumulative connections, consume XML or JSON defensively and build monitoring around verified stream behaviour.
- 05Use event bindings for source lifecycle actionsRead Icecast 2.5 event bindings, separate notifications from admission checks and constrain executable or URL actions triggered by source changes.
- 06Use the administration interface deliberatelyLook up Icecast administration endpoints, required mount parameters and state-changing operations, then verify authentication and XML responses.
