Hey, thanks for contributing to Koel! To save time for both of us, please make sure these checkboxes are checked before submitting the issue:

  • You have read and followed closely the Wiki, Upgrade Guide, as well as Troubleshooting
  • The issue has not been reported before
  • This is not a "how to install on Windows" or "why is my npm messed up" question
  • You're a cool person

All checked? Now also make sure your issue

  • Is associated with a version. Or better yet, a commit.
  • Is as detailed as possible (ahem... OS, browser, steps to reproduce, maybe?)
  • Includes the error output if it's a bug/error report ("Whoops!" is not very helpful, you know)
  • Is in English, 因为我不说中文。

Hey Hey Hey !

I'm interested into this project : I wish to put this on a RaspBerry Pi (car project).
=> just one question, when you say "a capable server", do you think this could handle server charge ? client charge ? both ?

I know you write down the opposite but an upload part is needed if the server is on local ^^' In a car, there is no internet connexion so you download/put song on your phone, then on RPi.
If you didn't planned doing this upload part, i'll stick to it and leave this dev' on my side.

@phanan commented on GitHub (May 5, 2016):

I've never tried Raspberry Pi before, but looking at the specs, the model can totally cut it. In fact, it looks more powerful than my current VPS.

Regarding upload/download, I don't really get what you mean. If it's local then you can just put more files under the target directory and trigger another scan. Koel scans are sequential, so unless your library is really huge, there shouldn't be any penalty. Althought, tbh, storing the files locally defeats Koel's purpose from the first place.

Btw your use case is interesting – I've never thought of it 👍
