tidal-discord

Discord bot to download music using tidal-dl and import to an existing beets library.

** this project assumes you have an already-existing beets library**

To use:

git clone https://github.com/dcalacci/tidal-discord && cd tidal-discord
docker build -t dcalacci/tidal-discord .
docker run --env-file docker.env -v /media/nfs/music/@library:/music -v /media/nfs/music/import/discord:/downloads dcalacci/tidal-discord:latest

Volumes, explained:

• /music in the container should point to your current beets music library directory
• /downloads should point to wherever you want tidal-dl to download files from tidal, before they're imported into your beets library.

To run the container, you need to set a few env vars. These are dependent on how you mount your volumes. For example, if you mount your beets library directory at /data/music in the container, you should set BEETS_LIBRARY_DIR=/data/music.

Save the following as docker.env:

# discord client token for your bot app
DISCORD_CLIENT_TOKEN=mydiscordbottoken
# keep this as defined here - this is the path (in container) to the tidal-dl binary after install
TIDAL_DL_PATH=/usr/local/bin/tidal-dl
# keep this as defined - this is the temporary download directory for tidal
TIDAL_OUTPUT_PATH=/downloads
# path (in container) to your beets config file.
BEETS_CONFIG_FILE=/app/config/config.yaml
# path (in container) to your beets music library
BEETS_LIBRARY_DIR=/music
# path (in container) to your beets music library database file
BEETS_LIBRARY_FILE=/music/library.db

Beets and tidal configuration

Config files for beets and tidal live in the config directory. I've included an example beets config, but you should make sure you replace it with your own.
