Mopidy-Moped 0.3.0

Responsive Web client for Mopidy

Moped is response HTML5 + JavaScript client for the Mopidy music server.

Installation

Make sure to have Mopidy 0.19 or higher installed on your music server. Also make sure that the HTTP extension is enabled.

Install from PyPI on your music server:

sudo pip install Mopidy-Moped

Alternatively, clone the GitHub repository and copy all files from the /dist/ directory to the webclient directory on your server.

Usage

Browse to the Moped app on your Mopidy server (e.g. http://localhost:6680/moped).

Known issues

• The Mopidy HTTP frontend uses Web Sockets. Most modern browsers support this but not the default Android browser (4.3 and older). To use Moped on Android you have to use a different browser like Firefox or Chrome;

• Searching radio streams is still experimental.

Security warning

(from the Mopidy web site)

As a simple security measure, the web server is by default only available from localhost. To make it available from other computers, change the http/hostname config value. Before you do so, note that the HTTP extension does not feature any form of user authentication or authorization. Anyone able to access the web server can use the full core API of Mopidy. Thus, you probably only want to make the web server available from your local network or place it behind a web proxy which takes care or user authentication. You have been warned.
