Supysonic is an open-source media server that streams music from your computer to any device with a web browser. If you want to install Supysonic on NixOS latest, follow these steps:
First, make sure your system is up-to-date by running the following command:
sudo nixos-rebuild switch
Supysonic requires Python 3.5 or later, so you need to install it if you haven't already. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo nix-env -i python3.7
You also need to install the following dependencies:
Run the following command to install them:
sudo nix-env -i libffi libjpeg libpng libvorbis libxml2 zlib
Now, you can download Supysonic from GitHub using Git command:
git clone https://github.com/spl0k/supysonic.git
After you have downloaded Supysonic, you need to install it. Navigate into the directory where you downloaded it, and from there run the following command:
sudo python3.7 setup.py install
Before running Supysonic server, you need to create a configuration file for it. You can create the configuration file by copying a sample configuration file located in ~/.config/supysonic/sample_config.py
to ~/.config/supysonic/config.py
. Open the configuration file and edit the settings to your liking. You can put your music files wherever you want, and specify the directories in the configuration file.
After you have configured Supysonic, you can start the server by running the following command:
supysonic
Now that the server is running, you can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080/. If you want to access the server from another device on your network, you can input the IP address of your NixOS latest machine with port number 8080
into the web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Supysonic on NixOS latest.
