myMPD
=====
myMPD is a lightweight MPD web client that runs without a dedicated webserver or interpreter.
It's tuned for minimal resource usage and requires only very little dependencies.
myMPD is a fork of ympd (https://github.com/notandy/ympd).
This fork provides a reworked ui based on Bootstrap 4, a modernized backend and many new features while having the same small footprint as ympd.
**Design principles:**
- Keep it small and simple
- Uses only mpd as source of truth
- Mobile first UI
- Keep security in mind
**Featurelist:**
- Control mpd functions (play, pause, etc.)
- Set mpd settings (repeat, random, etc.)
- Browse mpd database by tags
- Browse filesystem and playlists
- Queue management
- Playlist management
- Advanced search (requires mpd >= 0.21.x and libmpdclient >= 2.17)
- Jukebox mode (add's random songs / albums from database or playlists to queue)
- AutoPlay - add song to (empty) queue and mpd starts playing
- Smart playlists and saved searches
- Play statistics and song voting (requires mpd stickers)
- Local coverart support (Albums and Streams)
- HTTP stream support
- Local playback of mpd http stream (html5 audio api)
- Progressiv Web App enabled
- Embedded Webserver (mongoose)
- Docker support (experimental)
myMPD is work in progress. Bugreportes and feature requests are very welcome.

UI Components
-------------
- Bootstrap 4: https://getbootstrap.com/
- Material Design Icons: https://material.io/tools/icons/
- Bootstrap Native: http://thednp.github.io/bootstrap.native/
Backend
-------
- Mongoose: https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose
- Frozen: https://github.com/cesanta/frozen
- inih: https://github.com/benhoyt/inih
Dependencies
------------
- libmpdclient 2: http://www.musicpd.org/libs/libmpdclient/
- OpenSSL: https://www.openssl.org/
Build Dependencies
------------------
- cmake 2.6
- libasan3: for debug builds only
- Java: optional for minifying .css and .js files
Unix Build Instructions
-----------------------
1. Install dependencies: cmake, libmpdclient (dev), OpenSSL (dev) and Java are available from all major distributions.
2. Build and install: ```cd /path/to/src; ./mkrelease.sh``` (toplevel directory of myMPD tarball).
3. Link your mpd music directory to ```/usr/share/mympd/htdocs/library``` and put ```folder.jpg``` files in your album directories (mkrelease.sh tries to do this for you).
4. Configure your mpd with http stream output to use the local player.
Run
---------
```
Usage: ./mympd [/etc/mympd/mympd.conf]
```
The ```./mkrelease.sh``` script tries to install a systemd service file. If this failes you can copy the ```mympd.service``` file from ```/usr/share/mympd/``` to appropriate distribution specific location.
SSL
---
1. Create ca and certificate ```/usr/share/mympd/crcert.sh``` (mkrelease.sh does this for you).
2. Set ```ssl=true``` in /etc/mympd/mympd.conf (use default certificate under ```/etc/mympd/ssl/```).
3. Import ```/etc/mympd/ssl/ca/ca.pem``` in your browser to trust the certificate.
4. myMPD redirects http requests to https, ensure that myMPD hostname is resolvable.
