Euterpe is a music streaming software you can run yourself. It will give you access to your music everywhere you go. Either via its built-in web UI or via any of its clients. You could run it on your home computer, laptop or on a dedicated server. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Euterpe on your Synology NAS using Docker.

• STEP 1

Please Support My work by Making a Donation.

• STEP 2

Install Container Manager via Synology “Package Center”. If you run an older DSM version (under 7.2), search for Docker instead of Container Manager.

• STEP 3

Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it euterpe. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

• STEP 4

Go to Control Panel / Task Scheduler / Create / Scheduled Task / User-defined script. Follow the instructions in the image below.

• STEP 5

Once you click on User-defined script, a new window will open. Follow the instructions below:

1. General: In the Task field type in Install Euterpe. Uncheck the “Enabled” option. Select root User.
2. Schedule: Select Run on the following date then select “Do not repeat“.
3. Task Settings: Check “Send run details by email“, add your email then copy paste the code below in the Run command area. After that, click OK.

docker run -d --name=euterpe \
-p 7483:9996 \
-e PUID=1026 \
-e PGID=100 \
-v /volume1/docker/euterpe:/euterpe-data \
-v /volume1/web/music:/root/Music \
--restart always \
ironsmile/euterpe

Note: Before you paste the code above in the Run command area below, change the value numbers for PUID and PGID with your own values. (Follow my step by step guide on how to do this.)
Note: in the code above after -v /volume1/docker/euterpe:/euterpe-data \ you have to add your personal path to music. For example I have used my personal movies path folder -v /volume1/web/music:/root/Music \ Change it according to your preferences. -v /path/toyour/music:/root/Music  \

• STEP 6

After you click OK on STEP 5 a new warning pop up window will open. Click OK.

After you click OK, type in your DSM Password then click Submit. Follow the instructions in the image below.

• STEP 7

After you click Submit on STEP 6, select your “Install Euterpe” Task then click the “Run” tab. You will be asked to run Install Euterpe – click OK. Follow the instructions in the image below.

• STEP 8

Go back to STEP 1 or you will deal with karma 🙂

• STEP 9

The installation process can take up to a few seconds/minutes. It will depend on your Internet speed connection. Now open your browser and type in http://Synology-ip-address:7483 Follow the instructions in the image below.

Enjoy Euterpe!
