Mopidy is an extensible music server written in Python that plays music from local disk, Spotify, SoundCloud, and internet radio. It runs as an HTTP/MPD server on Linux or macOS and can be controlled from any MPD or web client on phones, tablets, or computers.
Use cases
- self-host a music server on a Raspberry Pi
- control home music playback from a phone or web browser
- stream Spotify and SoundCloud through a central server
- build a custom jukebox with NFC tags and GPIO buttons
- share a shared playlist with multiple MPD clients
- extend a music server with custom Python backends
When to choose
- you want a hackable, extension-based music server with Python, JSON-RPC, and JavaScript APIs
- you need MPD compatibility with modern cloud music sources
- you're building an embedded or Raspberry Pi audio project
When to avoid
- you need a ready-made GUI music player with no server setup
- you only need simple local file playback on a desktop
- you require official support for Windows
