Navidrome Music Streamer

Navidrome is an open source web-based music collection server and streamer. It gives you freedom to listen to your music collection from any browser or mobile device.

Features

• Handles very large music collections
• Streams virtually any audio format available
• Reads and uses all your beautifully curated metadata (id3 tags)
• Multi-user, each user has their own play counts, playlists, favourites, etc..
• Very low resource usage: Ex: with a library of 300GB (~29000 songs), it uses less than 50MB of RAM
• Multi-platform, runs on macOS, Linux and Windows. Docker images are also provided
• Automatically monitors your library for changes, importing new files and reloading new metadata
• Modern and responsive Web interface based on Material UI, to manage users and browse your library
• Compatible with the huge selection of clients for Subsonic, Airsonic and Madsonic. See the complete list of available mobile and web apps

This is alpha quality software. Expect some changes in the feature set and the way it works

Road map

• Last.FM integration
• Integrated music player
• Pre-build binaries for all platforms, including Raspberry Pi
• Smart/dynamic playlists (similar to iTunes)
• Jukebox mode
• Sharing links to albums/songs/playlists

Installation

Currently there are no downloadable binaries (WIP). The available options are:

Run it with Docker

# This is just an example. Customize it to your needs.

version: "3"
services:
  navidrome:
    image: deluan/navidrome:latest
    ports:
      - "4533:4533"
    environment:
      # All options with their default values:
      ND_MUSICFOLDER: /music
      ND_DBPATH: /data/navidrome.db
      ND_SCANINTERVAL: 1m
      ND_LOGLEVEL: info  
      ND_PORT: 4533
    volumes:
      - "./data:/data"
      - "/Users/deluan/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music:/music"

Build it yourself / Development Environment

You will need to install Go 1.13 and Node 13.7. You'll also need ffmpeg installed in your system

After the prerequisites above are installed, build the application with:

$ make setup
$ make buildall

This will generate the navidrome binary in the project's root folder. Start the server with:

./navidrome

The server should start listening for requests on the default port 4533

First time password

The first time you start the app it will create a new user "admin" with a random password. Check the logs for a line like this:

Creating initial user. Please change the password!  password=XXXXXX user=admin

You can change this password using the UI. Just browse to http://localhost:4533/app#/user and login with this temporary password.
