jfa-go is a user management app for [Jellyfin](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin) that provides invite-based account creation as well as other features that make one's instance much easier to manage.
I chose to rewrite the python [jellyfin-accounts](https://github.com/hrfee/jellyfin-accounts) in Go mainly as a learning experience, but also to slightly improve speeds and efficiency.
#### Features
* 🧑 Invite based account creation: Sends invites to your friends or family, and let them choose their own username and password without relying on you.
* Send invites via a link and/or email
* Granular control over invites: Validity period as well as number of uses can be specified.
* Account defaults: Configure an example account to your liking, and its permissions, access rights and homescreen layout can be applied to all new users.
* Password validation: Ensure users choose a strong password.
* 📨 Email storage: Add your existing user's email addresses through the UI, and jfa-go will ask new users for them on account creation.
* Email addresses can optionally be used instead of usernames
* 🔑 Password resets: When user's forget their passwords and request a change in Jellyfin, jfa-go reads the PIN from the created file and sends it straight to the user via email.
* Notifications: Get notified when someone creates an account, or an invite expires.
* Authentication via Jellyfin: Instead of using separate credentials for jfa-go and Jellyfin, jfa-go can use it as the authentication provider.
* Enables the usage of jfa-go by multiple people
* 🌓 Customizable look
* Specify contact and help messages to appear in emails and pages
Simply run `jfa-go` to start the application. A setup wizard will start on `localhost:8056` (or your own specified address). Upon completion, refresh the page.
Note: jfa-go does not run as a daemon by default. You'll need to figure this out yourself.
