mpdscrobble

A simple Last.fm scrobbler for MPD.

On top of Last.fm, mpdscrobble is also compatible with those services:

If you are searching for a mpd-compatible Last.fm scrobbler, check out first mpdscribble, as mpdscrobble has less features than mpdscribble:

  • no journal of failed scrobbles
  • it needs a pair of Last.fm API key/secret instead of just username/password

If you need to scrobble tracks from an existing mpdscribble journal file, you can use the mpdscribble_history.py script.

Requirements

  • httpx
  • mpd-python2
  • pylast

Installation

Classic installation :

pip install mpdscrobble
mpdscrobble -h

You will then need to create a config file (see the Configuration section).

If you want the systemd-service, you will have to install it manually (see the Scheduling section).

Run from source

First method

git clone https://github.com/dbeley/mpdscrobble
cd mpdscrobble
python setup.py install --user
mpdscrobble -h

Second method (with pipenv)

git clone https://github.com/dbeley/mpdscrobble
cd mpdscrobble
pipenv install '-e .'
pipenv run mpdscrobble -h

On Archlinux

If you are an Archlinux user, you can install the AUR package mpdscrobble-git.

yay -S mpdscrobble-git

The systemd service file will be automatically installed.

Configuration

See mpdscrobble.example.conf for an example.

By default, mpdscrobble search a config file at ~/.config/mpdscrobble/mpdscrobble.conf, but you can override the default location with the -c/--config flag (see the Usage section).

Scheduling

If you installed the AUR package on Archlinux, the systemd service is automatically installed.

systemctl --user enable --now mpdscrobble
systemctl --user status mpdscrobble

Otherwise you will need to manually install the systemd service.

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dbeley/mpdscrobble/main/systemd-service/mpdscrobble.service > ~/.config/systemd/user/mpdscrobble.service
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user enable --now mpdscrobble
systemctl --user status mpdscrobble
