FLOSS alternative to subsonic, supporting its many clients

features

• browsing by folder (keeping your full tree intact)
• browsing by tags (using taglib - supports mp3, opus, flac, ape, m4a, wav, etc.)
• pretty fast scanning (with my library of ~27k tracks, initial scan takes about 10m, and about 5s after incrementally)
• last.fm scrobbling
• multiple users
• a web interface for configuration (set up last.fm, manage users, start scans, etc.)
• newer salt and token auth
• tested on dsub and jamstash

installation

the default login is admin/admin.
password can then be changed from the web interface

$ apt install build-essential git sqlite libtag1-dev # for debian like
$ pacman -S base-devel git sqlite taglib             # for arch like
$ go get senan.xyz/g/gonic/cmd/gonic
$ export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/go/bin
$ gonic -h                                           # or see "configuration options below"

note: unfortunately if you do this above, you'll be compiling gonic locally on your machine (if someone knows how I can statically link sqlite3 and taglib, please let me know so I can distribute static binaries)

or else you can run in docker, available on dockerhub as sentriz/gonic

# example docker-compose.yml

version: '3'
services:
  gonic:
    image: sentriz/gonic:latest
    environment:
    - TZ
    # optionally, see env vars below
    expose:
    - 80
    volumes:
    - ./data:/data
    - /path/to/music:/music:ro

then start with docker-compose up -d

configuration options

env var	command line arg	description
GONIC_MUSIC_PATH	-music-path	path to your music collection
GONIC_DB_PATH	-db-path	optional path to database file
GONIC_LISTEN_ADDR	-listen-addr	optional host and port to listen on (eg. 0.0.0.0:4747, 127.0.0.1:4747) (default 0.0.0.0:4747)
GONIC_PROXY_PREFIX	-proxy-prefix	optional url path prefix to use if behind reverse proxy. eg /gonic (see example configs below)

example nginx config with GONIC_PROXY_PREFIX

  location /gonic/ {
      proxy_pass http://localhost:4747/;
      # set X-Forwarded-Host for last.fm connection callback
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
  }
