ympd is a lightweight web-based music player designed to work with MPD (Music Player Daemon). In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing ympd on Void Linux.
Before installing ympd, make sure to update your system by running the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Su
ympd requires MPD to work properly. You can install MPD on Void Linux by running the following command:
sudo xbps-install mpd
To install ympd on Void Linux, we will use the XBPS package manager. Run the following command to install ympd:
sudo xbps-install ympd
Before starting ympd, make sure the MPD service is up and running. You can start the MPD service by running the following command:
sudo sv up mpd
After installing ympd and starting the MPD service, you can start ympd by running the following command:
sudo ympd
ympd runs on port 8080 by default. Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8080 to access ympd. You can also access ympd from another device on your network by replacing localhost with the IP address of the device running ympd.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed ympd on Void Linux. You can now use ympd to play your favorite music on any device with a web browser.
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!
