multi-scrobbler
A dockerized app that monitors your music listening activity from everywhere and scrobbles it anywhere.
- Supports scrobbling from many Sources
- Supports scrobbling to many Clients
- Monitor status of Sources and Clients using webhooks (Gotify, Ntfy, Apprise), healthcheck endpoints, or prometheus metrics.
- Supports Now Playing for scrobble Clients
- Supports configuring for single or multiple users (scrobbling for your friends and family!)
- Mobile-friendly web interface for stats, control, scrobble audit trail, and logs
- Graceful network and client failure handling (queued scrobbles that auto-retry)
- Smart handling of credentials (persistent, authorization through app)
- Easy configuration through ENVs or JSON
- Modify data before scrobbling with regular expression or search patterns
- Install using Docker images for x86/ARM or locally with NodeJS
Why should I use this over a browser extension and/or mobile app scrobbler?
- Platform independent -- Because multi-scrobbler communicates directly with service APIs it will scrobble everything you play regardless of where you play it. No more need for apps on every platform you use!
- Open-source -- Get peace of mind knowing exactly how your personal data is being handled.
- Track your activity regardless of where you listen -- Scrobble from many Sources to one Client with ease and without duplicating tracks.
- Manage scrobbling for others -- Scrobble for your friends and family without any setup on their part. Easily silo sources to specific clients to keep plays separate.
Yes! You can use Last.fm as a Source or Listenbrainz as a Source to forward scrobbles from your profile to any other Client! That way you can keep your current scrobble setup as-is but still get the benefit of capturing your data to a self-hosted location.
How Does multi-scrobbler (MS) Work?
You set up configurations for one or more Sources and one or more Clients. MS monitors all of your configured Sources. When new tracks are played by a Source MS grabs that information and then sends it (scrobbles it) to all Clients that Source is configured to forward to.
Source
A Source is a data source that contains information about music you are playing or have listened to, such as: a desktop player, web music player, or cloud music service. Examples are Spotify, Jellyfin, Plex, Youtube Music, Navidrome, etc...
Source configurations consist of:
- A friendly name.
- Any data needed to communicate or authenticate with the Source.
- An optional list of Client names that the Source should scrobble to. If omitted the Source also scrobbles to all configured Clients.
Client
A Client is an application that stores the historical information about what music you have played (scrobbles). Examples are Koito, Last.fm, Listenbrainz...
Client configurations consist of:
- A friendly name.
- Any data needed to communicate or authenticate with the Client.
