Rails open source project for building music sharing sites, record stores or band pages

Yet Another Music Service - Front End

Demonstration of an open source music streaming service, band page or record store.

Run your own

This is a front end example APP, that utilises the core functionality of YAMS, which is provided in a separate open source yams core engine

You are welcome to use this project as the basis for your very own yet another music service.

After forking this repository, you probably want to :

• Create your own front_page and about pages.

These can be found under : app/views/pages

Installation

The whole app can be spun up on your host using Docker - see the provided Docker compose setup.

The following instructions are for a non docker install or for a development setup.

Prerequisites

This application requires:

• Ruby > 2.7
• ElasticSearch, Kibana - Installation instructions - or see docker section below.
• Postgres, Sidekiq and Redis

You will also need a Javascript runtime - see : https://github.com/rails/execjs Node.js (v14) is usually a good option : https://github.com/nodesource/distributions/blob/master/README.md

To manage javascript assets, we use webpacker and yarn

Yarn Installation instructions

Packages Installed

The following packages have been added to this project

./bin/rails hotwire:install
./bin/rails stimulus:install
./bin/rails active_storage:install 
yarn add bootstrap
yarn add @popperjs/core
yarn add turbolinks
yarn add dropzone
yarn add select2
yarn add @hotwired/stimulus-webpack-helpers

yarn add jquery

yarn add @rails/ujs

Linux Packages

Various features of Active Storage depend on third-party software which must be installed separately:

Audio processing requires ffmpeg

For Ubuntu

sudo apt install ffmpeg

Image uploads require libvips v8.6+ or ImageMagick for analysis and transformations.

For Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install imagemagick

In your cloned project, install the gems and dependencies :

bundle install

yarn install

The suite of additional services can also be spun up using Docker and accessed by the app.

Configuration

The .env file can be used to configure certain aspects of the setup - see .env.example

Database connection details can be set in here, or in Rails encrypted secrets - see config/database.yml

Uploaded image and audio files are stored using Active Storage.

In config/environments/development.rb the service is set to :local by default, and the local storage path is defined by ENV : YAMS_LOCAL_STORAGE_PATH

In Production, follow Active Storage's usual configuration and set your preferred cloud storage in : config/storage.yml

Audio Settings

Can be configured in the initializer : 'config/initializers/yams_audio_engine.rb'

YamsAudioEngine::Config.configure do |config|

    # Waveform colors.
    #
    config.wave_color     = '#f7931a'
    config.progress_color = '#f2a900'
    config.cursor_color   = '#010101'
  
end

Docker

A Dockerfile and docker-compose file are provided to simplify installation.

The complete stack, for a development container, can be spun up with a single thor command :

bundle exec thor yams:docker:dev

Pass --init if you would like to also create and seed the DB.

Elastic Search container may exit first time, with log containing :

ERROR: [1] bootstrap checks failed
[1]: max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]

RESOLUTION : Run : sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

Elastic search will be available at : http://localhost:9200

Kibana will be available at : http://localhost:5601

Sidekick configuration, including list of queues to start can found here : docker/config/sidekiq.yml

Foreman

In development you can use Foreman to start all of the processes associated with the app and display stdout and stderr of each process.

This should not go in Gemfile - so install manually. gem install foreman

To start all servers :

foreman start -f Procfile.dev

Otherwise, start the web server on port 3000

bundle exec rails server

And start the webpacker server

bin/webpack-dev-server

To manually install Redis locally see : https://redis.io/topics/quickstart

To start locally, run from the root of the application:

redis-server

bundle exec sidekiq

DB Setup

If using the docker install, the DB container should be ready to use,if you wish to use the seed data, open a bash sh in the container and jump to the section Seed the DB

 docker exec -ti development bash

For manual installs, we use .env to manage configuration, including DB access.

Copy .env.example to .env and edit, supplying your DB credentials. Current config is setup to use postgres.

Standard Rails DB stuff applies to create, migrate and seed the DB.

rake db:create
rake db:migrate

Seed the DB

The admin user is created via db:seed task. You can specify the email and password in .env

In development seed will also create an artist User

email: '[email protected]' password: 'artist_change_me'

rails db:seed

Loading Sample Audio Data

Audio files and associated details can be bulk uploaded from an Excel spreadsheet containing details of tracks and covers.

There is a starter pack of music and images available for free, by visiting this link

Free Sample Pack

If download does not start automatically, there should be a Download button top right.

Save zip and extract contents to /tmp on your local hard drive:

If you save elsewhere, open up the loading spreadsheet, db/seed/aqwan_tracks.xls, and change the /tmp path that's hardcoded in there.

The development artist user is assigned by default in the spreadsheet, again edit in the spreadsheet to change.

Run

thor yams:db:seed_music

This is essentially a wrapper around an Excel import tool for Rails.

If you want to load your own, the raw command would be :

thor datashift:import:excel -i <spreedsheet>.xls -m Track -c lib/tasks/config/track_import.yaml
