How to Install KooZic on NetBSD

KooZic is a free and open source music manager and player that allows you to organize and listen to your music collection. Here's how to install KooZic on NetBSD.

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Before we can install KooZic, we need to install some dependencies. Open the terminal and run the following command:

sudo pkg_add python37 py37-sqlite3 py37-pillow py37-mutagen py37-libmagic

This will install the following packages:

• python37: Python programming language version 3.7
• py37-sqlite3: Python SQLite driver
• py37-pillow: Python Imaging Library
• py37-mutagen: Python audio metadata handling library
• py37-libmagic: Python magic file identification library

Step 2: Install KooZic

Now that we have installed the dependencies, we can install KooZic. Download the latest release of KooZic from the official website or use the following command in the terminal:

wget https://github.com/DocMarty84/KooZic/releases/download/v2.5.2/KooZic-2.5.2.tar.gz

Extract the downloaded archive:

tar -xzvf KooZic-2.5.2.tar.gz

Change to the extracted directory:

cd KooZic-2.5.2

Step 3: Configure KooZic

Before running KooZic for the first time, we need to configure it. Open the koozic.ini file in your favorite text editor:

nano koozic.ini

Update the following configurations:

• host: set it to localhost
• database_uri: set it to sqlite:////absolute/path/to/koozic.db (replace /absolute/path/to with an actual absolute path to the database file)
• secret_key: set it to a secret key of your choice

Save the changes and exit the text editor.

Step 4: Initialize the Database

KooZic needs a database to store your music collection. Initialize the database by running the following command:

python manage.py initdb

Step 5: Run KooZic

Now we can start KooZic by running the following command:

python manage.py runserver

Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:5000/ to access KooZic. You can now start adding your music collection by clicking on the "Add Music" button.

Conclusion

That's it! You have successfully installed KooZic on NetBSD. Enjoy your music collection with this awesome music manager and player.
