GoSonic
This is still a work in progress, and has no releases available
GoSonic is an application that implements the Subsonic API, but instead of having its own music library like the original Subsonic application, it interacts directly with your iTunes library.
The project's main goals are:
- Be fully compatible with available Subsonic clients (actively being tested with DSub, SubFire and Jamstash)
- Use all metadata from iTunes, so that you can keep using iTunes to manage your music
- Keep iTunes stats (play counts, last played dates, ratings, etc..) updated, at least on Mac OS X. This allows smart playlists to be used in Subsonic Clients
- Help me learn Go ;)
Supported Subsonic API version
I'm currently trying to implement all functionality from API v1.8.0, with some exceptions.
Check the (almost) up to date compatibility chart for what is working.
Installation
As this is a work in progress, there are no installers yet. To have GoSonic running in your computer, follow the steps in the Development Environment section below, then run it with:
$ export GOSONIC_MUSICFOLDER="/path/to/your/iTunes Library.xml"
$ bee run
The server should start listening on port 4533.
Development Environment
You will need to install Go 1.7
Then install dependencies:
$ make setup
Some useful commands:
# Start local server (with hot reload)
$ make run
# Run all tests
$ make test
