Please follow the commands below to install Mopidy on the Raspberry Pi

  1. Add the archive’s GPG key:
wget -q -O - https://apt.mopidy.com/mopidy.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
  1. Add the APT repo to your package sources:
sudo wget -q -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mopidy.list https://apt.mopidy.com/jessie.list
  1. Install Mopidy and all dependencies:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mopidy

Run this when Mopidy releases a new version:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Add the following in ~/.config/mopidy/mopidy.conf file

[mpd]

[http]
Hostname = ::

Check config: sudo mopidyctl config

Running Mopidy as Service

On Debian systems (both those using systemd and not) you can enable the Mopidy service by running: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mopidy

Mopidy can be started, stopped, and restarted using the service command:

sudo systemctl enable mopidy

sudo service mopidy start
sudo service mopidy stop
sudo service mopidy restart

You can check if Mopidy is currently running as a service by running:

sudo service mopidy status

Scanning local media

To scan the local media (mp3 files) using mopidy, run the following command: Prior to running the scan command, make sure media_dir is set in the /etc/mopidy/mopidy.conf config file under [local].

sudo mopidyctl local scan

After scanning the media, restart mopidy using the following command to reflect the audio files.

sudo service mopidy restart
