Hi! I’m currently looking onto perhaps running Jellystat. But the instructions seem to be a bit…lacking? Is there a step by step guide on how to get it up and running?
Thanks!
TIL about jellystat. Thank you!
Run the docker compose file. That’s pretty much all you need to do.
There’s a link in their Read Me on GitHub under the title about launching with Docker. Are you familiar with Docker?
Thanks…Yeah I saw it. I have a few docker things deployed. But the “getting started” section completely ignores setting up the Postgresql DB, which very clearly it seems to want. This is not listed as a requirement, but still hinted casually around whenever it mentions the user/pass, environment variables etc.
So…is there anywhere mentioned how to get the whole thing up and running, including docker and postgresql?
They have a docker-compose.yml
file in the repo. It looks like it has everything all ready for you.
Yeah…I copied the whole of it onto my docker-compose.yml. But after running a docker compose up, and after getting:
docker-compose.yml: the attribute `version` is obsolete, it will be ignored, please remove it to avoid potential confusion
[+] Running 3/3
✔ Network jellystat_default Created 0.1s
✔ Container jellystat-jellystat-db-1 Started 0.9s
✔ Container jellystat-jellystat-1 Started
I still can’t get to connect on http://myIP:3000, I get nothing, just a “unable to connect” firefox error. Is there anything I should set up/modify on the docker-compose.yml?
What is jellystat?
TL:DR it’s an application for gathering statistics on jellyfin users and watching habits.
Seems pretty creepy to be collecting logs about what people watch. Why do people use this?
I use it to track users use/watch habits, to restrict their access if need be. Every user with a password that may or may not be strong is a weak point in my network security.
Is it creepy what people collect data on their own viewing habits so they can visualise data for fun and keep track of things they’ve watched? I’m not sure I understand why that is creepy TBH. It’s not like people are collecting data on viewing habits of random strangers.
