mopidy-local
backend extension Mopidy 4
Backend for playing music from your local music archive. It scans your files ahead of time, so that you can search, and browse by album, artist, composer, performer, genre and year.
In contrast to mopidy-file, which reads your folders as they
are, mopidy-local keeps an index of the metadata. The index lives in a
SQLite database, and the search uses SQLite’s full-text search. Run
mopidy local scan to build it, and again whenever the collection
changes. Mopidy picks up a scan while it runs, so the scan can come from
a cron job.
