Icecast dev - Sep 2020 - Listener stats

Hello
I’m new to Icecast and I’m using version 2.4.4. How would I be able to get a
Jason file that has listener information specifically listener location or at
least the IP address. I can get listener count but I’m looking for location
through the IP. I need to write a php script to gather this information. I have
checked the status-Jason.xsl and the xml2json.xsl but neither gives me that
information.

What would I have to modify and how, to get this?  I would prefer not to modify
any xsl file to get this if at all possible.

Thanks

Reaz

Hi Reaz,

IP Address != Location of user in many cases. Think VPNs for instance.

Of course if you're set on going that route, I'm pretty sure that
status-json.xsl (in your webroot) has the IP address option simply added
to a section that does not show it:

<xsl:template match="icestats/source/source_ip"><xsl:if
test="not(following-sibling::*)">"dummy":null}</xsl:if></xsl:template>

I could be wrong but you may be able to simply remove that line and
it'll work. I haven't tried that before so do it at your own risk ;) I
personally don't know how you would do that without modifying the xsl
file to display it.


Cheers,
Jordan Erickson

Hello Jordan

Thanks for the reply.  I commented out all the fields in the 
status-json.xsl but it didn't give me the listener IP.  The example 
below would show me the source IP.  I can get the IP from the web 
interface at this location, 
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000/admin/listclients.xsl?mount=/dhantal, but 
that means I would have to scrape the web interface which I don't want 
to do.
