Maloja
Self-hosted music scrobble database to create personal listening statistics
Alternative to: Last.fm
Maloja is a simple self-hosted music scrobble database that creates personal listening statistics and charts without syncing your library to any public or official music database. It supports associated artists, multi-artist tracks, custom images, and a standard-compliant API so existing scrobbler apps and browser extensions can submit plays directly to your own server.
Maloja Docker Compose example
Self-host Maloja on your own server, homelab, or VPS starting from this Docker Compose example.
It runs Maloja in Docker containers using the official krateng/maloja:latest image, with persistent volumes and automatic restarts preconfigured.
Review the environment variables and adjust them to your setup, save the file as compose.yml (or docker-compose.yml), and start the stack with docker compose up -d.
