## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Supysonic can run as a standalone application (not recommended for a "production" server)
|
||||
or as a WSGI application (on Apache for instance). To install it, run:
|
||||
|
||||
python setup.py install
|
||||
$ python setup.py install
|
||||
|
||||

|

use MySQL, you will need to install `python-mysqldb`.

### As an Apache WSGI application
|
||||
|
||||
Supysonic can run as a WSGI application with the `cgi-bin/supysonic.wsgi` file.
|
||||
To run it within an Apache2 server, first you need to install the WSGI module and enable it.
|
||||
|
||||
apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi

||||

|

$ apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi

## Trancoding
|
||||
|
||||
Transcoding is the process of converting from one audio format to another. This
|
||||
allows for streaming of formats that wouldn't be streamable otherwise, or
|
||||
reducing the quality of an audio file to allow a decent streaming for clients
|
||||
with limited bandwidth, such as the ones running on a mobile connection.
|
||||
|
||||
Supysonic's transcoding is achieved through the use of third-party command-line
|
||||
programs. Supysonic isn't bundled with such programs, and you are left to
|
||||
choose which one you want to use.
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration of transcoders is done on the `[transcoding]` section of the
|
||||
configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||
Transcoding can be done by one single program which is able to convert from one
|
||||
format direclty to another one, or by two programs: a decoder and an encoder.
|
||||
All these are defined by the following variables:
|
||||
|
||||
* *transcoder_EXT_EXT*
|
||||
* *decoder_EXT*
|
||||
* *encoder_EXT*
|
||||
* *trancoder*
|
||||
* *decoder*
|
||||
* *encoder*
|
||||
|
||||
where *EXT* is the lowercase file extension of the matching audio format.
|
||||
*transcoder*s variables have two extensions: the first one is the source
|
||||
extension, and the second one is the extension to convert to. The same way,
|
||||
*decoder*s extension is the source extension, and *encoder*s extension is
|
||||
the extension to convert to.
|
||||
|
||||
Notice that all of them have a version without extension. Those are generic
|
||||
versions. The programs defined with these variables should be able to
|
||||
transcode/decode/encode any format. For that reason, we suggest you
|
||||
don't use these if you want to keep control over the available transcoders.
|
||||
|
||||
Supysonic will take the first available transcoding configuration in the following order:
|
||||
|
||||
1. specific transcoder
|
||||
2. specific decoder / specific encoder
|
||||
3. generic decoder / generic encoder (with the possibility to use a generic decoder with a specific encoder, and vice-versa)
|
||||
4. generic transcoder
|
||||
|
||||
All the variables should be set to the command-line used to run the converter
|
||||
program. The command-lines can include the following fields:
|
||||
|
||||
* `%srcpath`: path to the original file to transcode
|
||||
* `%srcfmt`: extension of the original file
|
||||
* `%outfmt`: extension of the resulting file
|
||||
* `%outrate`: bitrate of the resulting file
|
||||
|
||||
One final note: the original file should be provided as an argument of
|
||||
transcoders and decoders. All transcoders, decoders and encoders should
|
||||
write to standard output, and encoders should read from standard input.
|
||||
|
||||
### Suggested configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some example configuration that you could use. This is provided as-is,
|
||||
and some configurations haven't been tested.
|
||||
|
||||
transcoder_mp3_mp3 = lame --quiet --mp3input -b %outrate %srcpath -
|
||||
transcoder = ffmpeg -i %srcpath -ab %outratek -v 0 -f %outfmt -
|
||||
decoder_mp3 = mpg123 --quiet -w - %srcpath
|
||||
decoder_ogg = oggdec -o %srcpath
|
||||
decoder_flac = flac -d -c -s %srcpath
|
||||
encoder_mp3 = lame --quiet -b %outrate - -
|
||||
encoder_ogg = oggenc2 -q -M %outrate -

||||

||||
## Command line parameters
|
||||
|
||||
The command-line interface (or CLI, *cli.py*) is an interface allowing
|
||||
administration operations without the use of the web interface. It can either
|
||||
be run in interactive mode (`python cli.py`) or to issue a single command
|
||||
(`python cli.py <arguments>`).
|
||||
|
||||
If ran without arguments, `supsonic-cli` will open an interactive prompt. You
|
||||
can use the command line tool to do a few things:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
supysonic-cli [help] (user) (folder)

||||
Arguments:
|
||||
user Display the help mesage for the user command
|
||||
folder Display the help mesage for the folder command
|
||||
```

||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Usage:
|
||||

-a --admin Create the user with admin rights
|
||||
-p --password <password> Specify the user's password
|
||||
-e --email <email> Specify the user's email
|
||||
--off Revoke the admin rights if present
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
supysonic-cli folder [delete] <name>

### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
You can add a new admin user this way:
|
||||
|
||||
$ supysonic-cli user add spl0k -a -p MyAwesomePassword
|
||||
|
||||
To add a new folder, you can use something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
$ supysonic-cli folder add MyLibrary /home/spl0k/Music
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've added it, you will need to scan it:
|
||||
|
||||
$ supysonic-cli folder scan MyLibrary
|
||||

Those scripts shouldn't be used when initializing a new database, only when upgrading from a previous schema.
