Installation
|
|
************
|
|
|
|
Mopidy itself is a breeze to install, as it just requires a standard Python
|
|
installation. The libraries we depend on to connect to the Spotify service is
|
|
far more tricky to get working for the time being. Until installation of these
|
|
libraries are either well documented by their developers, or the libraries are
|
|
packaged for various Linux distributions, we will supply our own installation
|
|
guides here.

Dependencies
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
- Python >= 2.6
|
|
- Dependencies for at least one Mopidy mixer:
|
|
|
|
- AlsaMixer (Linux only)
|
|
|
|
- pyalsaaudio >= 0.2 (Debian/Ubuntu package: python-alsaaudio)
|
|
|
|
- OsaMixer (OS X only)
|
|
|
|
- Nothing needed.
|
|
|
|
- Dependencies for at least one Mopidy backend:
|
|
|
|
- DespotifyBackend (Linux and OS X)
|
|
|
|
- see :doc:`despotify`
|
|
|
|
- LibspotifyBackend (Linux only)
|
|
|
|
- see :doc:`libspotify`
|
|
|
|
To install Mopidy itself (i.e. no backend dependencies), on Debian/Ubuntu::
|
|
|
|
sudo aptitude install python-alsaaudio git-core
|
|
git clone git://github.com/jodal/mopidy.git
|
|
cd mopidy/
|
|
|
|
And on OS X, assuming you allready got git installed, e.g. from Homebrew::
|
|
|
|
git clone git://github.com/jodal/mopidy.git
|
|
cd mopidy/
|
|
|
|
|
|
Spotify settings
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Create a file named ``settings.py`` in the directory ``~/.mopidy/``. Enter
|
|
your Spotify Premium account's username and password into the file, like this::
|
|
|
|
SPOTIFY_USERNAME = u'myusername'
|
|
SPOTIFY_PASSWORD = u'mysecret'
|
|
|
|
|
|
Switching backend
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
Currently the despotify backend is the default. If you want to use the
|
|
libspotify backend instead, copy the Spotify application key to
|
|
``mopidy/spotify_appkey.key``, and add the following to
|
|
``~/.mopidy/settings.py``::
|
|
|
|
BACKENDS = (u'mopidy.backends.libspotify.LibspotifyBackend',)
|
|
|
|
For a full list of available settings, see :mod:`mopidy.settings`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running Mopidy
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
To start Mopidy, go to the root of the Mopidy project, then simply run::
|
|
|
|
python mopidy
|
|
|
|
When Mopidy says ``MPD server running at [localhost]:6600`` it's ready to
|
|
accept connections by any MPD client. You can find a list of tons of MPD
|
|
clients at http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/Clients. We use Sonata, GMPC, ncmpc, and
|
|
ncmpcpp during development. The first two are GUI clients, while the last two
|
|
are terminal clients.
|
|
|
|
To stop Mopidy, press ``CTRL+C``.
