Why ?

Since I listen music via streaming, I discovered lot of new good stuff and I a bit forgot my local music. Streaming apps does not have all music and the artists management is not enought mature for the moment, so I needed something where I can view all my music library, rate it, explore it and sort it.

Requirements

• Last.fm API key to retrieve artists info (can be disable in source)
• Python 2.7 and later
• SQL database

Deploying

• Create virtualenv and install dependencies with pip

$ pip install virtualenv
$ virtualenv /path/to/melopedia/venv
$ source /path/to/melopedia/venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

• Create SQL database and configure connexion in config.py file doc
• Create database structure

$ ./db_create.py

• Start app. Exemple invocations :

$ ./run.py --host 0.0.0.0
$ ./run.py --host 127.0.1.1 --port 8000
$ ./run.py --debug

Extras

You can use parse_zik.py script to add your local library. To work well, directory tree must be Tags/artists/albums Exemples :

$ ./parse_zik.py -r /path/to/music/Classical/ -g "classical"

Add multiple tags, separate by ':'

$ ./parse_zik.py -r /path/to/music/Metal/Progressive\ Metal/ -g "progressive metal:metal"

Pass the --help flag to get a help message.

Enjoy !
