Just download the latest release from the [downloads page](https://swingmusic.vercel.app/downloads) and launch it. [FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/) is needed for the audio silence skip feature, so you need to install it first. On windows, you can follows [this tutorial](https://phoenixnap.com/kb/ffmpeg-windows) to install FFmpeg. On Linux, you can install FFmpeg using: ```sh sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra -y ``` Then make the file executable first. ```bash chmod a+x ./swingmusic ./swingmusic ``` The app should start at by default. Open it in your browser to configure and use Swing Music. You can change the default port by using the `--port` flag. ```sh ./swingmusic --port 1980 ``` ### Options Options flags can be passed when starting the app in the terminal to tweak runtime settings or perform tasks. You can use the `-h` flag to see all supported options. > [!TIP] > You can read more about options in [the docs](https://swingmusic.vercel.app/guide/getting-started.html#options). ### Docker Pull the latest Docker image and run it: ```sh docker pull ghcr.io/swingmx/swingmusic:latest ``` ```sh docker run --name swingmusic -p 1970:1970 \ -v /path/to/music:/music \ -v /path/to/config:/config \ --restart unless-stopped \ ghcr.io/swingmx/swingmusic:latest ``` Don't forget to replace `/path/to/music` and `/path/to/config` with the appropriate values. In addition, specify the the `/music` directory as the root directory. Using the `Home Directory` option won't work. > [!TIP] > For more info, see the [Docker section](https://swingmusic.vercel.app/guide/getting-started.html#docker) on the docs. #### Using Docker Compose Here's a sample Docker compose file: ```yaml services: swingmusic: image: ghcr.io/swingmx/swingmusic:latest container_name: swingmusic volumes: - /path/to/music:/music - /path/to/config:/config ports: - "1970:1970" restart: unless-stopped ``` ### Contributing Swing Music is looking for contributors.
