Wissl allows you to play your music over the internet using a web interface, without uploading it to a third-party.
The server side component is a Java application that indexes music files and exposes it using HTTP/REST/JSON.
The Wissl server runs by default in an embedded mode that contains a Javascript web application that can play music on the server using HTML5 or Flash audio.
Wissl is designed with home users in mind and aims to be simple and easy to use.
To build Wissl, you need Java 6+ and Maven.
In the root directory, run mvn package
.
The generated file target/wissl-VER.war
is a self executable webapp archive.
You can run it with java -jar wissl.jar
, it will run the server on http://localhost:8080
.
To use a different HTTP port, use the following switch: java -jar wissl.jar -Dwsl.http.port=1234
.
If you want a higher degree of control over deployment, you can also use this WAR file within any application server such as tomcat.
You can easily import the sources into eclipse using Import existing maven project
.
The maven setup allows starting Wissl in an embedded Jetty container using the command: mvn jetty:run
.
Static resources such as CSS and JS files can then be edited while this Jetty server is running.
