# ![jellyfin-accounts](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hrfee/jellyfin-accounts/bs5/images/jellyfin-accounts-banner-wide.svg) #### 👀 ➡️: Have a look at [jfa-go](https://github.com/hrfee/jfa-go), an attempted rewrite in Go. Identical look and features but might be faster. A basic account management system for [Jellyfin](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin). * Provides a web interface for creating/sending invites * Sends out emails when a user requests a password reset * Uses a basic python jellyfin API client for communication with the server. * Uses [Flask](https://github.com/pallets/flask), [HTTPAuth](https://github.com/miguelgrinberg/Flask-HTTPAuth), [itsdangerous](https://github.com/pallets/itsdangerous), and [Waitress](https://github.com/Pylons/waitress) * Frontend uses [Bootstrap](https://v5.getbootstrap.com) * Password resets are handled using smtplib, requests, and [jinja](https://github.com/pallets/jinja) ## Interface

## Get it ### Requirements * This should work anywhere Python does, i've tried to not use anything OS-specific. Drop an issue if there's a problem, of course. ``` * python >= 3.6 * flask * flask_httpauth * jinja2 * requests * itsdangerous * passlib * pyOpenSSL * waitress * pytz * python-dateutil * watchdog * packaging ``` ### Install Usually as simple as: ``` pip install jellyfin-accounts ``` If not, or if you want to use docker, see [install](https://github.com/hrfee/jellyfin-accounts/wiki/Install). ## Usage * Passing no arguments will run the server ``` usage: jf-accounts [-h] [-c CONFIG] [-d DATA] [--host HOST] [-p PORT] [-g] jellyfin-accounts optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -c CONFIG, --config CONFIG specifies path to configuration file. -d DATA, --data DATA specifies directory to store data in. defaults to ~/.jf-accounts. --host HOST address to host web ui on. -p PORT, --port PORT port to host web ui on. -g, --get_defaults tool to grab a JF users policy (access, perms, etc.) and homescreen layout and output it as json to be used as a user template. ``` ## Setup #### New user template * You may want to restrict a user from accessing certain libraries (e.g 4K Movies), display their account on the login screen by default, or set a default homecrseen layout. Jellyfin stores these settings in the user's policy, configuration and displayPreferences. * Make a temporary account and configure it, then in the web UI, go into "Settings => Set new account defaults". Choose the account, and its configuration will be stored for future use. #### Emails/Password Resets * When someone initiates forget password on Jellyfin, a file named `passwordreset*.json` is created in its configuration directory. This directory is monitored and when created, the program reads the username, expiry time and PIN, puts it into a template and sends it to whatever address is specified in `emails.json`. * **The default forget password popup references the `passwordreset*.json` file created. This is confusing for users, so a quick fix is to edit the `MessageForgotPasswordFileCreated` string in Jellyfin's language folder.** * Currently, jellyfin-accounts supports generic SSL/TLS or STARTTLS secured SMTP, and the [mailgun](https://mailgun.com) REST API. * Email html is created using [mjml](https://mjml.io), and [jinja](https://github.com/pallets/jinja) templating is used. If you wish to create your own, ensure you use the same jinja expressions (`{{ pin }}`, etc.) as used in `data/email.mjml` or `invite-email.mjml`, and also create plain text versions for legacy email clients. ### Configuration * Note: Make sure to put this behind a reverse proxy with HTTPS. On first run, access the setup wizard at `0.0.0.0:8056`. When finished, restart the program. The configuration is stored at `~/.jf-accounts/config.ini`. Settings can be changed through the web UI, or by manually editing the file. For detailed descriptions of each setting, see [setup](https://github.com/hrfee/jellyfin-accounts/wiki/Setup). ### Donations I strongly suggest you send your money to [Jellyfin](https://opencollective.com/jellyfin) or a good charity, but for those who want to help me out, a Paypal link is below.
