Trying to automate the following process. Can be done via the macOS host system or the docker containers.

0. FLAC file enters folder watched by app
1. Musicbrainz metadata and lyrics automatically added 
2. A zipped folder of the album is created and moved to my Proton Drive in a set location
3. The FLAC files are converted to ALAC
4. The ALAC files are moved to my music folder which is watched by my Jellyfin server

I know that shortcuts plus hazel would likely allow me to do this on the Mac host system, but I don’t know how to do it on docker or whether it’s preferable one way or the other.

Also to note: technically step 1 is already done by Jellyfin.

Any advice is welcome

Who is into n8n ? I just started using it last week (self-hosting on my NAS).

I am building my alter ego as an agent to help me across different things, marketing for @tipdotmd being one of them.

Let me know if you have good flow ideas.

You'd only need docker here if it helps with the scheduler/service, assuming all the folders are mounted. Depending on how much code you want to write the biggest question is likely automating the compression step. 
Check out n8n for building the flow

Yes I used to use IFTTT back in the day, very cool simple service.

@thumbsup.eth let me know if need help with n8n, just started recently but managed decently good flows, even agentic ones

I think the agent can to some extent. Mostly that it handles automation flows like zapier or ifttt.

Interesting I had heard the name n8n but didn’t know what it was. It builds automations? Will look into it thanks!
