# Shanty
|
|
|
|
Shanty is a self-hosted music management application. It searches MusicBrainz for artists and albums, downloads music from YouTube, tags and organizes files, and serves your library over the Subsonic protocol for streaming on any device.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Search** MusicBrainz for artists, albums, and tracks
|
|
- **Watch** artists or albums to track their full discography at the individual track level
|
|
- **Download** music via yt-dlp with YouTube Music search
|
|
- **Tag** files automatically using MusicBrainz metadata
|
|
- **Organize** files into clean directory structures with configurable templates
|
|
- **Stream** your library to any Subsonic-compatible music app
|
|
- **Playlists** generated from similar-artist data (Last.fm), with drag-and-drop editing and M3U export
|
|
- **Monitor** artists for new releases, automatically added to your watchlist
|
|
- **Web UI** built in Rust/WASM for managing everything from your browser
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start with Docker
|
|
|
|
This is the recommended way to run Shanty.
|
|
|
|
**1.** Create a file called `docker-compose.yml`:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
services:
|
|
shanty:
|
|
image: git.squid-inc.dev/connor/shanty:latest
|
|
ports:
|
|
- "8085:8085"
|
|
- "6080:6080"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- ./config:/config
|
|
- shanty-data:/data
|
|
- /path/to/your/music:/music
|
|
environment:
|
|
- SHANTY_WEB_BIND=0.0.0.0
|
|
restart: unless-stopped
|
|
|
|
volumes:
|
|
shanty-data:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**2.** Replace `/path/to/your/music` with the directory where you want your music library stored.
|
|
|
|
**3.** Start the container:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**4.** Open `http://localhost:8085` in your browser. Create an account on first launch.
|
|
|
|
**5.** Search for an artist, click **Watch All**, then click **Set Sail** to start downloading.
|
|
|
|
