Is a self host music streaming service, if you are like me and you own your own music *Navidrome* is your best choice.
Navidrome can be used as a standalone server, that allows you to browse and listen to your music collection using a web browser.
It can also work as a lightweight Subsonic-API compatible server, that can be used with any Subsonic compatible client.
Two ways to install and use *Navidrome*
One easy way to use or test *Navidrome* is with docker and docker-compose.
version: "3.1"
services:
navidrome:
image: deluan/navidrome:latest
user: 1000:1000 # should be owner of volumes
ports:
- "4533:4533"
restart: unless-stopped
environment:
# Optional: put your config options customization here. Examples:
ND_SCANSCHEDULE: 1h
ND_LOGLEVEL: info
ND_SESSIONTIMEOUT: 24h
ND_BASEURL: ""
volumes:
- "/path/to/data:/data"
- "/path/to/your/music/folder:/music:ro"
Changes "/path/to/data" to the directory in where you wants to store the *Navidrome* data in the host computer and "/path/to/your/music/folder" to the directory that has all your music.
Install *Navidrome* like a native application using the binary pakage
The only prerequisite that *Navidrome* needs is ffmpeg to be installed in the system
sudo apt install ffmpeg
Create two directory to storage the executable and the database that *Navidrome* will use
sudo install -d -o $USER -g $USER /opt/navidrome sudo install -d -o $USER -g $USER /var/lib/navidrome
Get the latest *Navidrome* release and move it to /opt/navidrome/
wget https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/releases/download/v0.XX.0/navidrome_0.XX.0_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz -O Navidrome.tar.gz sudo tar -xvzf Navidrome.tar.gz -C /opt/navidrome/ sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /opt/navidrome
Change the *Navidrome* number version before you use the wget command
In /var/lib/navidrome create a new file named navidrome.toml
sudo vim /var/lib/navidrome/navidrome.toml
Now add only this line in the file and change <music_path> to you music directory
MusicFolder = "<music_path>"
Create a new file named navidrome.service
sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/navidrome.service
Copy and paste the following and change under Service <user> and <group> with your username and group
[Unit] Description=Navidrome Music Server and Streamer compatible with Subsonic/Airsonic After=remote-fs.target network.target AssertPathExists=/var/lib/navidrome [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target [Service] User=<user> Group=<group> Type=simple ExecStart=/opt/navidrome/navidrome --configfile "/var/lib/navidrome/navidrome.toml" WorkingDirectory=/var/lib/navidrome TimeoutStopSec=20 KillMode=process Restart=on-failure # See https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html DevicePolicy=closed NoNewPrivileges=yes PrivateTmp=yes PrivateUsers=yes ProtectControlGroups=yes ProtectKernelModules=yes ProtectKernelTunables=yes RestrictAddressFamilies=AF_UNIX AF_INET AF_INET6 RestrictNamespaces=yes RestrictRealtime=yes SystemCallFilter=~@clock @debug @module @mount @obsolete @reboot @setuid @swap ReadWritePaths=/var/lib/navidrome # You can uncomment the following line if you're not using the jukebox This # will prevent navidrome from accessing any real (physical) devices #PrivateDevices=yes # You can change the following line to `strict` instead of `full` if you don't # want navidrome to be able to write anything on your filesystem outside of # /var/lib/navidrome. ProtectSystem=full # You can uncomment the following line if you don't have any media in /home/*. # This will prevent navidrome from ever reading/writing anything there. #ProtectHome=true # You can customize some Navidrome config options by setting environment variables here. Ex: #Environment=ND_BASEURL="/navidrome"
Reload the service daemon and start the newly created service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl start navidrome.service sudo systemctl status navidrome.service
If the service has started correctly verify you can access http://localhost:4533 or using the ip address of the computer in that you use to install it and follow the instructions to setup *Navidrome*
If everything is working, now enable the daemon to start *Navidrome* at boot
sudo systemctl enable navidrome.service
There are several apps to use with Navidrome, here is a short list of the apps i use:
- Terminal Base (TUI)
- Grafical Base (UI)
