Is DVinyl actively maintained?
Development is ongoing. The repository recorded 186 commits over the same window, and the last three months alone account for 186 of them.
The most recent tagged release, v3.2.0, shipped within the last month — a current, installable version exists today.
Note that DVinyl depends on a third-party service to work fully. It is self-hosted, but not self-contained: if that external service changes its terms or disappears, your instance is affected.
DVinyl ranks #11 of 13 tracked inventory management projects. Several better-maintained options exist in the same category — they are listed below.
What DVinyl actually does
DVinyl is a self-hosted inventory management tool designed to help you catalogue physical media collections such as vinyl records, CDs, cassettes, books, movies, and video games. It provides a centralised web interface to organise and track items you own. The project is distributed under the MIT licence as a containerised application.
Best fit: Collectors who want to self-host their own physical media inventory database rather than relying on commercial or proprietary cloud services.
Worth knowing: With a modest community following and moderate development activity, you may encounter edge cases or lack integration with niche third-party databases. It also faces competition from well-established media cataloguing alternatives.
Deployment notes
Because it runs as a Docker container, you will typically need to configure persistent volume mounts to retain your inventory data across container restarts. You should also place it behind a reverse proxy if you require TLS termination for external access.
