On Linux or MacOS run the command below to install Swing Music:

curl -fsSL https://setup.swingmx.com | bash

To run Swing Music on Windows, download the portable build from the downloads page and run it.

The app should start at http://localhost:1970 by default. Open the URL in your browser to configure and use Swing Music.

Here's a sample Docker compose file:

services:
  swingmusic:
    image: ghcr.io/swingmx/swingmusic:latest
    container_name: swingmusic
    ports:
      - "1970:1970"
    volumes:
      - /path/to/music:/music
      - /path/to/config:/config
    environment:
      - SWINGMUSIC_PORT=1970
      - SWINGMUSIC_DEVICE_NAME=Host name here
    restart: unless-stopped

The SWINGMUSIC_DEVICE_NAME sets the name this server reports to connected clients. To use a different port, change both SWINGMUSIC_PORT and the ports mapping to match (e.g. 2001:2001 with SWINGMUSIC_PORT=2001).

docker pull ghcr.io/swingmx/swingmusic:latest

Then run:

docker run --name swingmusic -p 1970:1970 -e SWINGMUSIC_PORT=1970 -e SWINGMUSIC_DEVICE_NAME="Host Name Here" -v /path/to/music:/music -v /path/to/config:/config --restart unless-stopped ghcr.io/swingmx/swingmusic:latest

Replace the following with appropriate values:

1. /path/to/music - Your music directory on the host
2. /path/to/config - Path to create Swing Music configs on the host
3. Host Name Here - Your host device name

You can change the Swing Music port by updating both the -p mapping and SWINGMUSIC_PORT to the same value (e.g. -p 2001:2001 -e SWINGMUSIC_PORT=2001).

Options flags can be passed when starting the app in the terminal to tweak runtime settings or perform tasks. You can use the -h flag to see all supported options.
