Beets

A powerful music library manager that catalogs your collection, automatically corrects metadata, and provides a web-based interface for browsing and playback. Beets handles the tedious work of organizing music files so you can focus on listening.

What You Can Do After Deployment

1. Visit your domain — the Beets web UI is available on port 8337
2. Upload music — place audio files in the /downloads volume for importing, or directly into /music for your library
3. Browse in browser — the built-in web player lets you browse by artist, album, or track and play music directly
4. Manage via CLI — use beet import /downloads to import new music with automatic metadata correction
5. Customize plugins — edit the config at /config/config.yaml to enable plugins like fetchart, lyrics, lastgenre, and more
