Jellyseerr is a free and open source software application for managing requests for your media library. It is a fork of Overseerr built to bring support for Jellyfin & Emby media servers!
The original Overseerr team have been busy and Jellyfin/Emby support aren't on their roadmap, so we started this project as we wanted to bring the Overseerr experience to the Jellyfin/Emby Community!
-
Full Jellyfin/Emby/Plex integration including authentication with user import & management
-
Supports Movies, Shows and Mixed Libraries
-
Ability to change email addresses for smtp purposes
-
Easy integration with your existing services. Currently, Jellyseerr supports Sonarr and Radarr. More to come!
-
Jellyfin/Emby/Plex library scan, to keep track of the titles which are already available.
-
Customizable request system, which allows users to request individual seasons or movies in a friendly, easy-to-use interface.
-
Incredibly simple request management UI. Don't dig through the app to simply approve recent requests!
-
Granular permission system.
-
Support for various notification agents.
-
Mobile-friendly design, for when you need to approve requests on the go!
(Upcoming Features include: Multiple Server Instances, and much more!)
With more features on the way! Check out our issue tracker to see the features which have already been requested.
On Jellyfin/Emby, ensure the Settings > Home > Automatically group content from the following folders into views such as 'Movies', 'Music' and 'TV' is turned off
Check out our docker hub for instructions on how to install and run Jellyseerr: https://hub.docker.com/r/fallenbagel/jellyseerr
Pre-requisites:
- Nodejs v18
- Yarn
- Download/git clone the source code from the github (Either develop branch or main for stable)
npm i -g win-node-env
set CYPRESS_INSTALL_BINARY=0
yarn install --frozen-lockfile --network-timeout 1000000
yarn run build
yarn start(You can use task scheduler to run a bat script with @echo off and yarn start to run jellyseerr in the background)
To set env variables such as JELLYFIN_TYPE=emby create a file called .env in the root directory of jellyseerr
Pre-requisites:
- Nodejs v18
- Yarn (on Debian based distros, the package manager provided
yarnis different and is a package called cmdlet. You can remove that usingapt-remove cmdletthen install yarn usingnpm install -g yarn) - Git
Steps:
- Assuming you want the root folder for the jellyseerr source code to be cloned to
/opt
cd /opt- Then execute the following commands to clone and checkout to the stable version
git clone https://github.com/Fallenbagel/jellyseerr.git && cd jellyseerr
git checkout main- Then install the dependencies and build the dist
CYPRESS_INSTALL_BINARY=0 yarn install --frozen-lockfile --network-timeout 1000000
yarn run build-
Now you can start jellyseerr using
yarn startand opening http://localhost:5055 in your browser. -
If you want to run jellyseerr as a Systemd-service:
- assuming jellyseerr was cloned to
/opt/ - first create the environment file at
/etc/jellyseerr/jellyseerr.conf
Environment file:
# Jellyseerr's default port is 5055, if you want to use both, change this.
# specify on which port to listen
PORT=5055
# specify on which interface to listen, by default jellyseerr listens on all interfaces
#HOST=127.0.0.1
# Uncomment if your media server is emby instead of jellyfin.
# JELLYFIN_TYPE=emby
- Then run the command
which nodeto find your node path (assuming it's at/usr/bin/node) - Then create the service file using
sudo systemctl edit jellyseerr.serviceor creating and editing a file at/etc/systemd/system/jellyseerr.service
