A rewrite of [jellyfin-accounts](https://github.com/hrfee/jellyfin-accounts) in Go. It has feature parity with the Python version, but should be faster.

#### Install
Grab an archive from the release section for your platform, and extract `jfa-go` and `data` to the same directory.
Run the executable to start.

For [docker](https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/hrfee/jfa-go), run: 
```
docker create \
             --name "jfa-go" \ # Whatever you want to name it
             -p 8056:8056 \
             -v /path/to/.config/jfa-go:/data \ # Equivalent of ~/.jf-accounts
             -v /path/to/jellyfin:/jf \ # Path to jellyfin config directory
             -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \ # Makes sure time is correct
             hrfee/jfa-go
```
#### Usage
```
Usage of ./jfa-go:
  -config string
    	alternate path to config file. (default "~/.config/jfa-go/config.ini")
  -data string
    	alternate path to data directory. (default "~/.config/jfa-go")
  -host string
    	alternate address to host web ui on.
  -port int
    	alternate port to host web ui on.
```

To switch from jf-accounts, copy your existing `~/.jf-accounts` to:

* `XDG_CONFIG_DIR/jfa-go` (usually ~/.config) on \*nix systems, 
* `%AppData%/jfa-go` on Windows,
* `~/Library/Application Support/jfa-go` on macOS.

(*or specify config/data path  with `-config/-data` respectively.*)

This is the first time i've even touched Go, and the code is a mess, so help is very welcome.
