If you use Vivaldi, Brave, Iridium or any other Chromium-based browser and listen to music on Plex, download the extension and simply enter the server URL as well as your API key in the relevant fields. They will turn green if the server is accessible.
If you use another browser or another music player, you could try to code your own extension. The API is super simple! Just send a POST HTTP request to
yourserver.tld/db/newscrobble
(make sure to use the public URL) with the key-value-pairs
artist
Artist String
title
Title String
key
API Key
seconds
Duration of Scrobble - optional and currently not used
Import your Last.FM data
Switching from Last.fm? Download all your data and place the resulting file in your Maloja main folder. Run the command ./lastfmconverter.py (the file you just downloaded) lastfmimport.tsv.
Set up some rules
After you've scrobbled for a bit, you might want to check the Issues page to see if you need to set up some rules. You can also manually add rules in your server's "rules" directory - just add your own .tsv file and read the instructions on how to declare a rule.
Say thanks
Coding open source projects is fun, but not really monetizable. If you like Maloja, I would appreciate a small donation via
PayPal or Bitcoin.
