Bug: r.Route("/api/admin", ...) in server.go for the /scan endpoint
created a second chi subtree at the same prefix as the nested admin
Route inside api.Mount. chi.Walk shows both subtrees registered, but
runtime routing dispatch only matched one — so every /api/admin/*
endpoint registered by api.Mount (Lidarr config, quarantine admin,
requests admin) silently returned 404 to authenticated callers.
Has shipped this way since 06a1fe1; M5a/b/c admin tests didn't catch
it because they call api.Mount on a fresh chi.NewRouter() rather than
going through Server.Router(), so only one /api/admin registration
existed in those tests.
Fix: register /api/admin/scan as a single inline-middleware route
(r.With(...).Post(...)) instead of a Route subtree, eliminating the
duplicate /api/admin mount.
Adds a regression test that uses a real seeded admin session to make
an authenticated GET /api/admin/lidarr/config and asserts != 404.
Verified the test fails without the fix and passes with it.

Minstrel
Self-hosted music server with OpenSubsonic compatibility plus an extended API for server-side smart shuffle, a dual-like model (general + contextual), session-aware radio, ListenBrainz scrobble/similarity, and Lidarr integration. Go + Postgres, packaged as a Docker container.
State and intelligence belong on the server, not the client.
Specs
Authoritative v1 scope lives under docs/:
- Server spec — current implementation focus.
- Client spec — Flutter companion app; work starts once the server reaches its Subsonic-compatible baseline.
Development workflow
- Day-to-day work happens on the
devbranch (or feature branches merged intodev). mainis protected — changes land only via pull request fromdev.- Production builds are cut by tagging a release (
v*) offmain.
CI / container image
Forgejo Actions handles:
- Tests on push to
devand on PRs intomain. - Container image build + push to the Forgejo registry on merge to
main(:main) and onv*tags (:<version>).
Task and milestone tracking: Fable (Minstrel project, id 12).
Development
Minstrel has two concurrent dev processes:
- Backend:
docker compose up— starts Postgres and Minstrel on:4533. - Frontend:
cd web && npm install && npm run dev— Vite dev server on:5173with HMR.
The Vite dev server proxies /api/* and /rest/* to the backend on :4533,
so session cookies work correctly when the SPA is loaded from the Vite origin.
Production build
docker build -t minstrel . runs the SvelteKit build inside a node stage,
copies the output into the golang stage, and //go:embeds it into the
final binary. The resulting container serves the SPA from / alongside the
API surfaces. No separate static-file server is required.
