Installation

Via the AUR:

Install the sublime-music package. Example using yay:

yay -S sublime-music

If you want support for storing passwords in the system keychain, also install python-keyring.

If you want support for playing on Chromecast devices, install python-pychromecast. If you want to serve cached files from your computer over the LAN to Chromecast devices also install python-bottle.

Via NixOS:

Sublime Music is part of the nixos-20.09 channel and newer (including nixos-unstable).

To install Sublime Music on NixOS, either use the declarative or the imperative way:

• In configuration.nix (declarative):

  environment.systemPackages = [ pkgs.sublime-music ];
  

• In command line (imperative):

  nix-env -iA sublime-music
  

To customize the extra components installed, you need to use the override function provided by Nix:

(sublime-music.override {
  serverSupport = true;
  chromecastSupport = true;
})

The following components are supported:

• chromecastSupport: if you want support for playing on Chromecast devices on the LAN. Defaults to false.
• serverSupport: if you want to be able to serve cached files from your computer over the LAN to Chromecast devices. Defaults to false.
• keyringSupport: if you want to store your passwords in the system keyring instead of in plain-text. Defaults to true.
• notifySupport: if you want to enable notifications when a new song begins to play. Defaults to true.
• networkSupport: if you want to change the address used to access the server depending on what network you are connected to. Defaults to true.

See Nix package management for more information.

Via the Debian package

Sublime Music is not currently in the Debian 'Stable' distribution, but has been packaged for Debian 'Unstable' and 'Testing'.

If you have these sources in your /etc/apt/sources.list, you can install the package with:

sudo apt install sublime-music

Via PyPi:

pip install sublime-music

There are a few optional dependencies that you can install. Here's an example of how to do that:

pip install sublime-music[keyring,chromecast,server]

• keyring: if you want to store your passwords in the system keyring instead of in plain-text
• chromecast: if you want support for playing on Chromecast devices on the LAN.
• server: if you want to be able to serve cached files from your computer over the LAN to Chromecast devices

Note

Sublime Music requires Python 3.8. Please make sure that you have that installed. You may also need to use pip3 instead of pip if you are on an OS that hasn't deprecated Python 2 yet.
