Node MP3-Stream

A simple mp3 streamer/webserver written in JavaScript. All you need to run is Node.js. To play music please browse to JSMusicDB and provide credentials as you setup using the instructions below.

Install

git clone https://github.com/lucienimmink/node-mp3stream.git or download this file

then

npm ci

Run

node app

1st run will ask for the following settings

• port: external HTTP port on which the webserver will listen.
• ssl: Do you want to use SSL; if so please answer Yes. (see notes about SSL)
• path: path where the music is stored; you can build the music database by navigating to mp3streamurl:port/rescan after you have logged in.
• username: specify a username that can use the program
• password: specify the password for the username

About SSL

In config.json you can point to the certificate and the key used for SSL. Please update the paths manually. Most likely these files can only be read by the root user, if so restart the app as root. You have to make sure that the cert and key are up-to-date and valid.

Docker

Included is a dockerfile to create and run a containerized version of node-mp3stream.

Build the container by issuing the command npm run docker:build

And setup your first user npm run docker:setup Note that the server is now available.

To run it deamonized npm run docker: run Please refer to the package.json to alter settings like the port and music volume.

volumes

Create named volume that you mount, for example:

docker volume create \
--driver local \
--opt type=cifs \
--opt device=//<network-device-ip-folder> \
--opt o=user=<your-user>,password=<your-pw> \
<volume-name>

where <volume-name> should be music-share, if you mount a local folder it looks like this:

docker volume create \
--driver local \ 
--opt type=none \
--opt device=//c/Users/<user name>/... \
--opt o=bind \
<volume-name>

Do this for both music-share and data and afterward just run npm run docker:run; happy streaming!
