Navidrome

Navidrome is a streaming server that let's you stream your own music to your devices. It's pretty solid and compatible with OpenSubsonic API. You can browse and listen to your collection on the WEB GUI or with your favorite client app.

Navidrome is provided via docker and natively support rootless configuration. As usual, you need to create a dedicated user for the service:

useradd -d /data/daemons/navidrome -m -g media navidrome

Then put the following docker-compose.yml to /data/daemons/navidrome:

docker-compose.yml

version: "3"
services:
  navidrome:
    image: deluan/navidrome:latest
    user: 1046:1014 # should be owner of volumes
    ports:
      - "4533:4533"
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      # Optional: put your config options customization here. Examples:
      ND_SCANSCHEDULE: 1h
      ND_LOGLEVEL: info  
      ND_SESSIONTIMEOUT: 24h
      ND_BASEURL: "/navidrome"
    volumes:
      - "/data/daemons/navidrome/data:/data"
      - "/data/Music/folder:/music:ro"

You need to adapt UID/GID, paths to music collection and port. Also, check the BASEURL.

The following NGINX configuration will proxy your navidrome to https://mydomain.com/navidrome. For more details see The Reverse Proxy concept.

navidrome.conf

location ^~ /navidrome {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4533/navidrome;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Protocol $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header Remote-User $remote_user;
        proxy_buffering off;

        location /navidrome/rest {
                auth_pam off;
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4533/navidrome/rest;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Protocol $scheme;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header Remote-User $remote_user;
        proxy_buffering off;

        }

}

To start it, and set it up on boot, as usual follow my indications Using Containers on Gentoo, so link the user-containers init script:

ln -s /etc/init.d/user-containers /etc/init.d/user-containers.navidrome

and create the following config file:

/etc/conf.d/user-containers.navidrome

USER=navidrome
DESCRIPTION="The music server"

Add the service to the default runlevel and start it now:

rc-update add user-containers.navidrome default
rc-service user-containers.navidrome start
