Simple Navidrome Dashboard
A lightweight, self-hosted multi-user dashboard for Navidrome.
Aggregates play counts, filters duplicates, sorts your top tracks, and serves a clean, mobile-responsive HTML page via Nginx.
Features
- 🕒 All-Time Stats: Aggregates total play counts and tracks the most recent timestamp for every song played.
- 👥 Multi-User Support: Automatically detects all registered Navidrome users and creates individual cards for each.
- 🧠 Smart Sorting: Ordered by total plays (descending), then last played date, then alphabetically by artist name.
- 📱 Fully Responsive: Adapts cleanly to wide desktop screens and stacks vertically on mobile devices.
- ⚡ Zero Heavy Dependencies: Runs entirely via standard Python libraries and a lightweight Nginx container.
Setup & Instructions
1. Repository Structure
Ensure you have your project directory set up with your two files:
your-dashboard-folder/
├── dashboard.py
└── docker-compose.yml
And make sure you have an empty public directory for the generated HTML output:
mkdir -p public
2. Generate the Dashboard HTML
You can run the Python script on-demand using a temporary Python container.
Mount your project folder to /app and your Navidrome data directory to /nddata:
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/app -v /path/to/your/navidrome/data:/nddata -e NAVIDROME_DB_PATH="/nddata/navidrome.db" -e OUTPUT_HTML_PATH="/app/public/index.html" python:3.11-slim python /app/dashboard.py
3. Start the Web Server
Spin up the Nginx container using Docker Compose:
docker compose up -d
You can now view your dashboard in your browser at http://<your-server-ip>:8081.
Automation (Crontab)
To keep the dashboard updated automatically, you can add a cron job on your host machine to regenerate the HTML page once a day at midnight.
Open your crontab editor:
crontab -e
Add the following line (making sure to replace /home/username/dashboard with your absolute project path and /path/to/your/navidrome/data with your actual Navidrome data path):
0 0 * * * docker run --rm -v /home/username/dashboard:/app -v /path/to/your/navidrome/data:/nddata -e NAVIDROME_DB_PATH="/nddata/navidrome.db" -e OUTPUT_HTML_PATH="/app/public/index.html" python:3.11-slim python /app/dashboard.py
