Installation

1. Connect to your slot through SSH

2. Download the latest Linux x86_64 release

    wget https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/releases/download/v0.49.3/navidrome_0.49.3_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz
   

3. Make a directory for Navidrome

    mkdir -p ~/navidrome
   

4. Extract the latest release archive

    tar zxvf navidrome_*.tar.gz -C ~/navidrome
   

5. Create a configuration file and fill with the following. nano ~/navidrome/navidrome.toml

navidrome.toml

    DataFolder = '/home/user/navidrome'
    MusicFolder = '/home/user/files' # change this as needed
    LogLevel = 'INFO'
    Port = '27449'
    Address = '0.0.0.0'
