In AwesomeWM, how to get "now playing" info from Nuvola (Mpris)?
Is there a way to get the "now playing" info from the Nuvola music player to display in a widget in Awesome WM? I know there were Cinnamon widgets which interacted with it.

you'll need a lua script that connects to the mpris dbus interface and then reacts to changes in the player state.

Does anyone have an example script for this?
