Hey ya all,



Reiverr is a project of mine that I’ve decided to release to the public today. It’s a self-hosted website similar to the content discovery app Overseerr, with the added features of managing and watching your content library through Sonarr, Radarr and Jellyfin integrations. The motivation behind the project was the lack of a unified modern UI that could be used to discover, manage and watch content in a single place.

Currently, the project is in very early stages of development, but it is mostly usable in its current state. If you want to try it out, you can find the installation instructions in the project’s GitHub page:



https://github.com/aleksilassila/reiverr

Also: For the project to reach its fullest potential, it could use contributions! If you’d like to contribute code, designs (I’m not a UI designer, please help me), documentation or anything else, first of all, thank you!, and you can find an extensive list of planned features & fixes at the Reiverr Taskboard. It’s also a great place to just get a sense of what’s being done if you’re curious.



Cheers guys!

Amazing! This looks gorgeous!

The screenshots probably shouldn’t include copyrighted movies though, so it doesn’t get taken down from GitHub. You can replace them with Blender Studio projects https://studio.blender.org/films/

(Also there’s a small typo it says steam instead of stream on GitHub)

Good points, thank you!

Edit: Do you guys recon it can be taken down even though all the images are from themoviedb.org or youtube?

[-] nix@merv.news 47 points 1 year ago

I think since it’s a piracy related app it’s best not to risk it. It happened to YouTube-dl

[-] TimoBRL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

This Youtube-dl? Glad it's back then.

You should post this over on one of the Self Hosted communities. I'm sure they would appreciate this as well.

[-] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 33 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Crosspost to !selfhosted@lemmy.world (instead of duplicating, I mean)

[-] matey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

It just duplicates it anyway, doesn't it?

[-] Blizzard@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 year ago

Does it? It links them together so maybe it doesn't show up twice in your feed? Let's test it.

If you’re using the lemmy website, you should only see crossposted posts once in your feed. App support varies IIRC

Thank you for the tip, I will!

be OP

Developing a UI to combine several similar projects together

Makes a beautiful interface

"I am not a UI designer"

[-] Bread@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 year ago

If it looks like a duck, walks like duck, and quacks like a duck. They might just be a UI designer.

[-] Contend6248@feddit.de 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This is the second project i've seen this week where the dev claimed that there is no knowledge about UI/UX and it's just better than anything i've seen.

I start to think UI/UX classes may have shifted in a direction no actual user likes to use. That would explain some things.

[-] Drewelite@lemmynsfw.com 25 points 1 year ago

This is sick. An android TV app, while I'm sure a low priority, would make this a home run for me. Great work.

[-] mrjfilippo@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Well it's #26 on the task board! Definitely following up closely. This could close the gap with Plex tremendously.

It’s definitely in the scope, as is the primary way I consume media, too

Beautiful project! One feature request/ question: Would it be possible to have a config file/gui with the api keys instead of having them in the compose file?

[-] MonetarySqueeze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 year ago

Yes! This is a planned feature once I get the settings page implemented.

[-] skadden@ctrlaltelite.xyz 7 points 1 year ago

You can already do this. You can specify an env file or use the default .env file.

The compose file would look like this:

environment:
      PUBLIC_RADARR_API_KEY: ${PUBLIC_RADARR_API_KEY}
      PUBLIC_RADARR_BASE_URL: ${PUBLIC_RADARR_BASE_URL}
      PUBLIC_SONARR_API_KEY: ${PUBLIC_SONARR_API_KEY}
      PUBLIC_SONARR_BASE_URL: ${PUBLIC_SONARR_BASE_URL}
      PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_API_KEY: ${PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_API_KEY}
      PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_URL: ${PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_URL}

And your .env file would look like this:

PUBLIC_RADARR_API_KEY=yourapikeyhere
PUBLIC_RADARR_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:7878
PUBLIC_SONARR_API_KEY=yourapikeyhere
PUBLIC_SONARR_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8989
PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_API_KEY=yourapikeyhere
PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8096

This is how I do all of my compose files and then I throw .env in .gitignore and throw it into a local forgejo instance.

Does this combine all of the "arrs" AND overseer/jellyseer?! Thank you so much for such an amazing creation! Let's all remember to thank our open source contributors for their hard and fruitful work.

[-] DARbarian@artemis.camp 13 points 1 year ago

This sounds incredible. My biggest gripe about moving from Plex to Jellyfin is that now to make requests, my family has to go to my Jellyseerr site. On Plex they could just add things to the watchlist, so that would be amazing to bring to Jellyfin.

[-] synae 3 points 1 year ago

I like using other sites like imdb, trakt.tv for my watchlist, and then hooking up sonarr/radarr to monitor them. I'm not sure if it's feasible for your friends/family to do private lists and provide auth for you - sounds like a UX nightmare for them unless they are also technical - but, if they make their watchlist public on those sites, you can probably subscribe your tool to them easily.

This looks very cool. One of my biggest issues with Jellyfin is its UI. So I just stay with Plex. There are some other features that keep me in Plex but it’s mainly the UI. I’ll be starring this and keeping an eye on it! Well done.

[-] SpezCanLigmaBalls@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

For me it’s remote streaming. I have friends and family on my plex and it’s so easy to get them going. Getting jellyfin isn’t even possible on devices they use along with even making remote streaming work and having them be able to figure out how to make it work

I prefer the simpler Jellyfin UI; Plex has too much going on.

Hey, I'd love to help you with UI. How do i contact you

Hey, sounds amazing. I’ll get back home on Monday, you can contact me through GitHub or in discord (@imnotasmurf)

I'll admit to being a little nervous to stand up something on my server that's explicitly named for looting/pillaging, just in case I'm the mark and not the operator.

EDIT: Why is the app having my browser try to load googleads and doubleclick.net ads? I assume the play.google.com and youtube.com integrations are for some additional content?

Haha, I found the name brilliant :D

The google crap is from a youtube iframe found in the frontpage that displays trailers in the background for the showcased movies. So far I haven’t found any other way to play YouTube videos inline unfortunately.

[-] zaggynl@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Consider linking to one of the piped instances, they function as a youtube proxy: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/wiki/Instances

Thanks, I’ll look into that

[-] lud@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Maybe YouTubes enhanced privacy embed will work for that.

https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780?hl=en#zippy=%2Cturn-on-privacy-enhanced-mode

To use Privacy Enhanced Mode:

Change the domain for the embed URL in your HTML from >https://www.youtube.com to https://www.youtube-nocookie.com.

Can we have some i2p integration too?

[-] Reborn2966@feddit.it 4 points 1 year ago

how this compare to jellyseerr?

The biggest difference is that you can stream content without leaving the website (through jellyfin integration)

[-] deeznutz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 year ago

I'm not a UI designer

You are now!

[-] skadden@ctrlaltelite.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

This looks great. Gonna give it a whirl this weekend

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Setting up servarr and this is pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Going to give it a try!
