Radio

Continuous streams of your own music, one per station, gated by a single shared password. Icecast2 + Liquidsoap, both from apt. Docs: icecast.org, liquidsoap.info

• URL: https://{subdomain}.{domain}/{station}
• Data: none on the VPS — configs are role-rendered; the station files’ canonical copy is your local ~/Music

Deploy

Set radio_listener_password in your secrets first, then:

auberge deploy radio

Stations

A station is one .m3u file under ~/Music/Stations/, broadcast at https://{subdomain}.{domain}/<filename> (without the .m3u). Playlists under ~/Music/Playlists/ stay Navidrome-only — moving a file into Stations/ is what publishes it (ADR-0020).

Curate with beets and ship with the existing sync — use paths relative to the m3u’s location so they resolve both locally and on the VPS:

beet ls -f '$path' albumartist:Bonobo | sed "s|^$HOME/Music|..|" > ~/Music/Stations/chill.m3u
auberge sync music

Editing a station’s m3u changes its rotation live. Adding or removing a station file needs systemctl restart liquidsoap on the host (or a redeploy), since Liquidsoap discovers stations at startup.

Notes

Listen in VLC or any player that speaks HTTP audio: open the station URL and authenticate with your admin username and radio_listener_password, or inline them:

https://{user}:{password}@{subdomain}.{domain}/{station}

One credential covers every station; rotating the password revokes all listeners at once. Nothing to back up: redeploying reproduces the app, and stations live in your local music library.
