- Add ArtistMBID/AlbumMBID to LookupResult so handlers can build the full lidarr_requests row from album/track lookups (parent MBID is needed for the AddAlbum API call and for the schema's NOT NULL lidarr_artist_mbid) - Trim trailing slash on BaseURL before joining paths to avoid double-slash URLs when operators enter "http://lidarr.lan/" - Check json.Marshal errors in AddArtist/AddAlbum - Extract lidarrImage as a named unexported type instead of repeating the anonymous struct three times - Add NewClient(baseURL, apiKey) constructor with 30s default timeout - Add ErrLookupFailed test coverage for the 4xx-non-auth branch on both get and post helpers - Rename TestListRootFolders_BadJSON -> _NullBody (it tests null, not malformed); add a real malformed-JSON test - Defensive separator guard on LookupAlbum.Secondary so an empty ArtistName doesn't produce a leading " · " Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
