Maloja — a self-hosted music scrobble database that builds personal listening statistics and charts from your plays (a private Last.fm alternative). Accepts scrobbles from many players via a simple API. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service with a persistent data volume.
Needs nomad-pack on PATH. The script only adds the nomploy registry and runs this pack.

This pack stores data in one Docker named volume:
maloja_data
restic
# Run on the node hosting this pack. Point restic at your repo first: # export RESTIC_REPOSITORY="s3:https://<account>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com/<bucket>" # export RESTIC_PASSWORD="<repo-password>" # export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<key> AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<secret> restic backup \ /var/lib/docker/volumes/maloja_data/_data
rclone (sync to S3/R2)
rclone sync /var/lib/docker/volumes/maloja_data/_data backup:<bucket>/maloja_data
Paths assume the default Docker volume location (/var/lib/docker/volumes). Restore by stopping the job, restoring files into the same volume, and re-running the pack.
Maloja — a self-hosted music scrobble database. It records what you listen to and builds personal statistics and charts (top artists, tracks, listening history) — a private, no-tracking alternative to Last.fm. Accepts scrobbles from many players and apps via a simple API, including a Last.fm-compatible endpoint.
Single host-networked Nomad service with a persistent data volume.

Log in with your password, create an API key under Settings, and point your scrobbler at
http://<node-ip>:42010. Many players support Maloja directly; others can use a Last.fm-compatible
bridge. Serves plain HTTP — front it with a reverse proxy for TLS. Pin the job to the node holding the
volume with constraints.
