Native YandexMusic client for Linux. Built using repacking of Windows client (Electron app).
You can obtain the latest version of package from AUR
using one of the AUR Helpers. Then install it with yandex-music
as package name.
For this example I will use yay
yay -S yandex-music
Download prebuilt binary package from Releases section.
Then you can install it with the following command
pacman -U yandex-music-<version>-any.pkg.tar.zst
Download key and add repository to mirror list
curl -fsSL https://apt.cucumber-space.online/key.gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/cucumber-space.key.gpg
echo 'deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/cucumber-space.key.gpg] https://apt.cucumber-space.online ./' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cucumber-space.list > /dev/null
sudo apt update
Then you can install app with
sudo apt install yandex-music
Download prebuilt binary package from Releases section.
Then you can install it with the following command
dpkg -i yandex-music_<version>_<arch>.deb
Package is currently unavailable at DNF. If you'd like to help us with publishing, feel free to open new issue.
Download prebuilt binary package from Releases section. Unfortunatelly, we only provide packages for x64 architecture. If you need package for different architecture, you can build it manually.
Then you can install it with the following command
rpm -i yandex-music-<version>-1.x86_64.rpm
You can find configuration file at HOME/.config/yandex-music.conf
. It's a simple key=value
file that's sourced before launching the app. This means you can set environment variables and other options there.
You can set path to custom Electron binary with ELECTRON_CUSTOM_BIN
option. For example:
ELECTRON_CUSTOM_BIN=/usr/bin/electron
You can set custom Electron flags with ELECTRON_ARGS
option. By default it's set to --no-sandbox
. For example:
ELECTRON_ARGS="--no-sandbox --trace-warnings"
Tray mode is disabled by default. It allows program to be minimized to tray instead of closing. To enable it set TRAY_ENABLED
option to 1
.
Chromium developer/debug tools can be enabled by setting DEV_TOOLS
option to 1
.
That's the list of packages you might need to install to be able to manually build the app. However, you should remember that it might be different for your distro/machine.
- nodejs
- npm
- jq
- 7z (p7zip)
- unzip
- python
In addition you will need to install Asar tool with npm
. I recommend install it globally with the following command
npm install -g @electron/asar
Last step is to download original client .exe
file. You can get it yourself or take link to the latest version from ./utility/version_info.json
file.
If you only want to get extracted app project with applied patches, you can use the following command:
bash repack.sh -x [-o OUTPUT_DIR default=./app] <YM.exe>
.asar
is archive file that containes all electron app resources and information, but doesn't hold Electron binaries. If you have .asar
file you can launch app using electron <app>.asar
. You can build this archive with the following command:
bash repack.sh [-o OUTPUT_DIR default=./app] <YM.exe>
You can build pacman
package file manually using PKGBUILD
file from the this repository. Run following commands in folder with PKGBUILD
file inside to get .pkg.tar.zst
package:
pacman -S electron libpulse
makepkg
You can build .deb
binary package using the following command:
bash build_deb.sh [-a <x64|armv7l|arm64|all> default=x64]
You can build .rpm
binary package using the following command:
bash build_rpm.sh [-a <x64|armv7l|arm64|all> default=x64]
The yandex-music
package has unlicensed license, so you need to have
allowUnfree
option enabled.
