Raveberry is a music player web interface that turns your Raspberry Pi into a powerful media center. In this tutorial, we’ll go through the steps of installing Raveberry on the latest version of MXLinux.
Before getting started, make sure your Raspberry Pi is properly set up with MXLinux and is connected to the internet.
To install Raveberry, you first need to make sure that all the required dependencies are installed on your Raspberry Pi. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get install python-pip python-setuptools python-dev python-alsaaudio python-mutagen python-serial python-ws4py python-pathlib python-pychromecast python-flask
This will install all the dependencies needed to run the Raveberry software.
Next, we need to download the Raveberry software from the Github repository. Open the terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/raveberry/raveberry.git
This will download the Raveberry software to your Raspberry Pi.
Now that we have downloaded the Raveberry software, open the terminal and navigate to the directory where the software was downloaded. Run the following command to install Raveberry:
sudo python setup.py install
This will install the Raveberry software on your Raspberry Pi.
To run Raveberry, you need to open the terminal and navigate to the Raveberry directory. Run the following command to start Raveberry:
sudo python raveberry.py
Once Raveberry is running, open a web browser on your computer, and navigate to the Raspberry Pi’s IP address followed by port 5000. For example, if your Raspberry Pi’s IP address is 192.168.1.100, you would enter the following into your web browser:
http://192.168.1.100:5000
This will bring up the Raveberry web interface. From there, you can control the music played on your Raspberry Pi.
In this tutorial, we went through the steps of installing Raveberry, a powerful music player web interface for Raspberry Pi, on MXLinux. With Raveberry, you can easily turn your Raspberry Pi into a media center and enjoy your favorite music in high quality.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
