#External automation?

Hi all, this is a long shot, but here goes: is it possible for external software to see which song and/or which album Yarg is currently playing? I'm using Superior Drummer 3 to play the drum samples, and I have different drumkits for most artists/songs. I can set up kit switching according to my setlist, but it would be even cooler if I could somehow automate the step completely.

Unless I'm forgetting something the only way I can think of at the moment would be the discord API (as in write a bot to check your rich presence status, which will show the song you're playing if the option is enabled)

Does the Discord Rich Presence Status only include the song name, or can it also include the Album name and/or artist?

i am also forgetting something myself - can't remember where PersistentDataPath is

#

there we go, C:\Users\<your user>\AppData\LocalLow\YARC\YARG\release\currentSong.txt (for stable; for nightly, just open the nightly folder instead of release)

#

there's also a currentSong.json file in the same folder, presumably with more info
