Mopidy reads settings from the file ``~/.mopidy/settings.py``, where ``~``
|
|
means your *home directory*. If your username is ``alice`` and you are running
|
|
Linux, the settings file should probably be at
|
|
``/home/alice/.mopidy/settings.py``.
|
|
|
|
You can either create this file yourself, or run the ``mopidy`` command, and it
|
|
will create an empty settings file for you.

Music from Spotify
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
If you are using the Spotify backend, which is the default, enter your Spotify
|
|
Premium account's username and password into the file, like this::
|
|
|
|
SPOTIFY_USERNAME = u'myusername'
|
|
SPOTIFY_PASSWORD = u'mysecret'
|
|
|
|
|
|
Music from local storage
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
If you want use Mopidy to play music you have locally at your machine instead
|
|
of using Spotify, you need to change the backend from the default to
|
|
:mod:`mopidy.backends.local` by adding the following line to your settings
|
|
file::
|
|
|
|
BACKENDS = (u'mopidy.backends.local.LocalBackend',)
|
|
|
|
You may also want to change some of the ``LOCAL_*`` settings. See
|
|
:mod:`mopidy.settings`, for a full list of available settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Connecting from other machines on the network
|
|
=============================================
|
|
|
|
As a secure default, Mopidy only accepts connections from ``localhost``. If you
|
|
want to open it for connections from other machines on your network, see
|
|
the documentation for :attr:`mopidy.settings.MPD_SERVER_HOSTNAME`.
