NOTE: Elementary OS, Linux Mint, Kali Linux are supported on releases based on Ubuntu 'Xenial' or 'Bionic' and Debian 'Buster'. To install Tizonia on non-LTS Ubuntu releases, use the Snap package or have a look at #631.
Please note that the recommended way to install Tizonia on a Debian-compatible system is by running the following command:
$ curl -kL https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-openmax-il/raw/master/tools/install.sh | bash
# Or its shortened version:
$ curl -kL https://goo.gl/Vu8qGR | bash
NOTE: This script installs the latest release and all the dependencies.
NOTE: The usual disclaimers apply: trust no-one. You should have a look at the installation script before running it on your system!.
# Please note that if you are upgrading your existing
# Tizonia installation, you *need* to uninstall it before installing a new version.
# See GitHub issue https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-openmax-il/issues/485
# For the latest stable release
$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/tizonia-all.git
$ cd tizonia-all
$ makepkg -si
# or for the bleeding edge
$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/tizonia-all-git.git
$ cd tizonia-all
$ makepkg -si
A 'snap' package is now available to download from the 'Global' snap store ('stable' channel). For more details visit:
- Tizonia's landing page on Snapcraft.io or
- Tizonia on uApp Explorer
To install, first visit Install Snapd and make sure that your Linux distro is supported. Follow the instructions to get the 'snapd' service running on your system, and finally use this command to install Tizonia:
$ sudo snap install tizonia
Tizonia's snapcraft.yaml file is hosted in its own repository:
Tizonia can also be run from a Docker container. A Docker image is available from the Docker hub:
To use Spotify, Google Play Music, SoundCloud, Dirble and Plex introduce your credentials in Tizonia's config file (see instructions inside this file for more information):
( On first use, Tizonia outputs its configuration file, if it is not there yet )
$ tizonia --help
( now edit $HOME/.config/tizonia/tizonia.conf )
( NOTE: If Tizonia was installed from the 'snap' package, use this path instead )
( $HOME/snap/tizonia/current/.config/tizonia/tizonia.conf )
To upgrade, simply re-run the install script. This is the most convienent way of upgrading the software and all its dependencies.
If you prefer to do it manually, it is a two-step process. Run 'apt-get' as usual to upgrade the Debian packages, but also make sure the various Python dependencies are up-to-date, as follows:
# Step1: This will update Tizonia's Debian packages
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
# Step2: Tizonia's Python dependencies
# (Note that new versions of some of these Python packages are released frequently,
# so you should do this frequently, even if there isn't a new Tizonia release)
$ sudo -H pip install --upgrade gmusicapi soundcloud youtube-dl pafy pycountry titlecase pychromecast plexapi fuzzywuzzy eventlet && sudo -H pip install git+https://github.com/plamere/spotipy.git --upgrade
