The bootstrap-admin-from-env-vars flow was a holdover from before self-registration could create the first admin. Now that handleRegister + CreateUserFirstAdminRace promotes the first user to register on an empty users table (verified shipped in v2026.05.08.2 / #376), the bootstrap path is just a second source of truth that confuses operators (and leaves an "admin" account in the DB that nobody asked for). Removes: - internal/auth/bootstrap.go + its test - The auth.Bootstrap call from cmd/minstrel/main.go - AuthConfig + AdminBootstrapConfig structs from config - MINSTREL_AUTH_ADMIN_USERNAME / _PASSWORD env reads + their test - The auth: block from config.example.yaml - Bootstrap-related comments in docker-compose.yml + README.md The README quickstart now points operators at /register on first start instead of "watch the logs for a one-time password." Existing instances keep their bootstrap-admin row in the DB; operators who want it gone can register a new admin via /register, promote them in /admin/users, then delete the old bootstrap user (last-admin guard will require the new admin to be promoted first). No migration needed. Recovery story for forgotten admin passwords now hinges on Fable #321 (admin password reset CLI) — currently the only path back in if no other admin exists.

# Minstrel
|
|
|
|
A self-hosted music server that thinks for you. Smart shuffle, contextual likes, ListenBrainz-aware radio, and Lidarr automation — server-side, so every client (web, mobile, Subsonic third-party) gets the same intelligence.
|
|
|
|
> State and intelligence belong on the server, not the client.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Highlights
|
|
|
|
- **OpenSubsonic-compatible.** Existing Subsonic clients (DSub, Symfonium, play:Sub, etc.) connect with no special configuration.
|
|
- **Server-side smart shuffle.** Track-similarity vectors, dual-like model (general + contextual), and session memory keep mixes coherent across devices.
|
|
- **ListenBrainz radio.** Session-aware "more like this" pulls from ListenBrainz similarity data, not a static genre tag.
|
|
- **Lidarr integration.** Triggered scans, request-driven album imports, and a quarantine flow when something doesn't fit.
|
|
- **Built-in web SPA.** Full-feature library, search, queue, playlists, and admin — no separate frontend container to deploy.
|
|
- **Flutter mobile client in flight.** Tracking issue [#356](https://git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/minstrel/issues/356).
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# compose.yaml
|
|
services:
|
|
minstrel:
|
|
image: git.fabledsword.com/bvandeusen/minstrel:latest
|
|
ports: ['4533:4533']
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- ./music:/music:ro
|
|
- minstrel-data:/data
|
|
environment:
|
|
MINSTREL_DATABASE_URL: postgres://minstrel:minstrel@db:5432/minstrel?sslmode=disable
|
|
MINSTREL_LIBRARY_SCAN_PATHS: /music
|
|
depends_on: [db]
|
|
|
|
db:
|
|
image: postgres:17
|
|
environment:
|
|
POSTGRES_USER: minstrel
|
|
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: minstrel
|
|
POSTGRES_DB: minstrel
|
|
volumes: [pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data]
|
|
|
|
volumes:
|
|
minstrel-data:
|
|
pgdata:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After the stack is up, visit `http://localhost:4533/register` and create your admin account. The first user to register on a fresh instance is automatically marked as the administrator; subsequent users can register through the same form (or via invite tokens generated from the admin Users panel, depending on how you configure registration).
|
|
|
|
For the full configuration surface, see [`config.example.yaml`](./config.example.yaml).
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Most operators only need the env vars in the quickstart above. A few extras worth knowing:
|
|
|
|
- `MINSTREL_BRANDING_APP_NAME` — rename the instance ("Family Jukebox", "Office Music"). Surfaces in the header, browser tab, and OG share previews.
|
|
- `MINSTREL_STORAGE_DATA_DIR` — defaults to `./data`. Holds playlist cover collages and other generated artefacts.
|
|
- `MINSTREL_LIBRARY_SCAN_PATHS` — colon-separated list of music library roots to scan. Supports multiple roots (`/music:/podcasts`).
|
|
|
|
ListenBrainz integration (per-user scrobble + similarity tokens) and Lidarr integration (URL + API key) are configured through the admin Settings UI rather than env vars or yaml — per Minstrel's "config in UI" rule, integration settings live where operators can edit them without restarting.
|
|
|
|
Most operational keys have a `MINSTREL_<SECTION>_<FIELD>` env override. Recommendation and events tuning are yaml-only. See [`config.example.yaml`](./config.example.yaml) for the authoritative surface.
|
|
|
|
## Updating
|
|
|
|
- `:main` — rolling, follows the dev branch's tested tip. Recommended only for the operator who's running an upstream-watching deployment.
|
|
- `:v1.0.x` — pinned releases. Recommended default. Database migrations run automatically at startup; rollbacks require restoring a Postgres dump.
|
|
|
|
## Specs
|
|
|
|
Authoritative scope lives under [`docs/`](./docs):
|
|
|
|
- [Server spec](./docs/smart-music-server-spec.md) — current implementation focus.
|
|
- [Client spec](./docs/smart-music-client-spec.md) — Flutter companion app.
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
Two concurrent dev processes:
|
|
|
|
1. **Backend:** `docker compose up` — Postgres + Minstrel on `:4533`.
|
|
2. **Frontend:** `cd web && npm install && npm run dev` — Vite dev server on `:5173` with HMR. The Vite server proxies `/api/*` and `/rest/*` to `:4533` so session cookies work.
|
|
|
|
### Production build
|
|
|
|
`docker build -t minstrel .` runs the SvelteKit build inside a `node` stage, copies the output into the `golang` stage, and `//go:embed`s it into the final binary. The container serves the SPA from `/` alongside the API surfaces; no separate static-file server is required.
|
|
|
|
### Branches
|
|
|
|
- Day-to-day work happens on `dev` (or feature branches merged into `dev`).
|
|
- `main` is **protected** — changes land via PR from `dev`.
|
|
- Releases are cut by tagging `v*` off `main`; the release workflow builds and pushes the container image to the Forgejo registry.
