Jukebox

Jukebox is a Nextcloud app for streaming and organizing all your audio content in one place.
It supports music files, podcasts (with gPodder sync), audiobooks, YouTube videos, and online radio.

Features

• 🎵 Play local music files

• 📚 Listen to audiobooks with resume support
• 📺 Embed and play YouTube videos

Installation

Download the app from Nextcloud’s App Store through your Nextcloud instance.

If you prefer to download manually, you can download the latest version from GitHub and install directly:

1. Place this app in nextcloud/apps/ or nextcloud/custom_apps/

2. Here is a quick installation script you can use as base. Modify the first variable lines to match your setup:

   pushd "/path/to/root/of/nextcloud/custom_apps"
   
   APPVER=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/chenasraf/nextcloud-jukebox/releases/latest | grep tag_name | grep -Eo 'v[^"]+') && \
   curl -L https://github.com/chenasraf/nextcloud-jukebox/releases/download/${APPVER}/jukebox-${APPVER}.tar.gz -o jukebox.tar.gz && \
   tar xfv jukebox.tar.gz && \
   rm -rf jukebox.tar.gz

3. Then enable the app as you normally would from Nextcloud’s Apps page.

Development

Automation

Most development processes are automated:

• GitHub Actions run tests, builds, and validations on each push or pull request.
• Pre-commit formatting is handled by lint-staged, which automatically formats code before committing:

🛠️ The NPM package husky takes care of installing the pre-commit hook automatically after pnpm install.
