With the configuration process now completed we can finally compile Shairport-sync and install it. The configure command further sets up the build system, telling it to utilize the ALSA audio backend, the Avahi network and set it to use OpenSSL for encryption.ĥ. The autoreconf command setups the basic config file. configure -with-alsa -with-avahi -with-ssl=openssl -with-systemd -with-metadata To do this, we must run a few commands on our Raspberry Pi. Now that we have cloned the Shairport-Sync repository to our Raspberry Pi we can now build and install the Shairport software.īefore we get started, we must first move into the shairport-sync folder and configure the system. Run the following commands on your Raspberry Pi to download the source code to your Raspberry Pi. Shairport-Sync is the best fork of the original Shairport code and allows syncing across multiple rooms. We will now clone the shairport-sync source to our Raspberry Pi. Sudo apt install avahi-daemon libavahi-client-devģ. sudo apt install autoconf libtool libdaemon-dev libasound2-dev libpopt-dev libconfig-dev Once that has completed we need to install several different packages, run the following commands on your Raspberry Pi to install all of the packages that we need.
