Running Mopidy
|
|
**************
|
|
|
|
To start Mopidy, simply open a terminal and run::
|
|
|
|
mopidy
|
|
|
|
For a complete reference to the Mopidy commands and their command line options,
|
|
see :ref:`mopidy-cmd`.
|
|
|
|
When Mopidy says ``MPD server running at [127.0.0.1]:6600`` it's ready to
|
|
accept connections by any MPD client. Check out our non-exhaustive
|
|
:doc:`/clients/mpd` list to find recommended clients.
|
|
|
|
Updating the library
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
To update the library, e.g. after audio files have changed, run::
|
|
|
|
mopidy local scan
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, to refresh the library (which is for now only available
|
|
through the API) it is necessary to run::
|
|
|
|
curl -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "core.library.refresh"}' http://localhost:6680/mopidy/rpc
|
|
|
|
This makes the changes in the library visible to the clients.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stopping Mopidy
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
To stop Mopidy, press ``CTRL+C`` in the terminal where you started Mopidy.
|
|
|
|
Mopidy will also shut down properly if you send it the TERM signal, e.g. by
|
|
using ``pkill``::
|
|
|
|
pkill mopidy
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running as a service
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Once you're done exploring Mopidy and want to run it as a proper service, check
|
|
out :ref:`service`.
