myMPD is a standalone and lightweight web-based MPD client. It's tuned for minimal resource usage and requires only very few dependencies. Therefore myMPD is ideal for raspberry pis and similar devices.

The backend is written in C and has no dependencies to external databases or webservers. The configuration is stored in plain text files and all the data is pulled on demand from MPD. The MPD database is the only source of truth for myMPD.

The frontend is mobile friendly, written as a PWA and offers on all devices the same functionality. It communicates over AJAX and websockets using the json-rpc 2 protocol.

myMPD also integrates extended features like an advanced jukebox mode, timers, triggers and smart playlists. With the integrated lua interpreter myMPD functions can also be scripted.

• Control mpd functions (play, pause, etc.)
• Set mpd options (repeat, random, etc.)
• MPD mount and neighbors support
• MPD partition support
• MPD output attributes
• Browse mpd database by tags (gridview)

myMPD should run on all current linux distributions. There are four ways to install myMPD:

1. Use a linux distribution that delivers a myMPD package - the easiest way: Distributions with myMPD
2. Use a prebuild package: Prebuild-Packages
3. Use the docker image: Docker
4. Use the build.sh script to compile myMPD: Building myMPD

On the first startup myMPD reads some environments variables and tries to autodetect the MPD connection configuration.

• Configuration
• Running

Usage: mympd -h

myMPD was originally a fork of ympd, but it has evolved into a much more featurefull MPD client.
