Plex Landing: Server status, user registration, request access to server

Dev Community Dev/API Corner

I just found this on Github and I can’t seem to find a previous thread. Looks really promising, I would love to have this for my server.

“A landing page for a plex instance. Allows users to see status of plex server, create an account and request access to your plex server.”

Yeah this would be pretty cool to have.

This would be sweet. Seems these projects always start with some steam then fizzle out though.

I would like to have this ability as well. Hope to hear updates soon!

5

This could be cool. I don’t know if many users of mine would utilize it, but still pretty cool.

6

Will def keep checking in on this =)

I’ll be following this.

Anyone has it running and could provide some screenshots?

I tried to set it up on my server but ran into a lot of errors.

Dev here!

I honestly didn’t expect any interest in this project of mine. The main goal for this was to ease my less technical family and friends into being able to access my plex server. So the planned features are basically:

  1. Online/offline status of server + extra info about server (# of movies, etc)
  2. Requesting access to the plex server
  • Create a plex account if they don’t have one
  • Notifying admin of request
  1. Admin section which shows current requests (and I am looking into scrapping the user form to see if I can add the user programmatically)

Unfortunately that is true of a lot of projects, and as this is a side project there are no guarantees. But I am active and will try my best not to disappoint y’all.

As of right now there is barely a front-end so screenshots wouldn’t really show you anything. This project so far is just a fork of one of my starter projects, so it mostly consists of a basic back-end, and the boilerplate needed to create a front-end. So running right now is really meant for developers only as it requires some tweaking.

So thank you for all the interest, development will start up again shortly once I finish some changes to my Android app. I need to stress that this is a side project so it will take some time. I will try my best not to disappoint.

Also if you have any feature requests please visit here, create an issue with the “[Feature]” tag or something, try to be as descriptive as possible!

Thanks everyone.
