Description

PR damontecres/jellyfin-plugin-wholphin#3 defines a new endpoint for Seerr configuration in plugin. This PR consumes this new endpoint (/wholphin/seerrsettings) to setup Seerr on first Jellyfin login. The new plugin endpoint exposes:

  • server URL
  • auth method: ApiKey, Local, Jellyfin
  • settings for each auth method

Jellyfin auth method supports useCurrentUser option, which stashes the in-memory Jellyfin password from password-based login and resuses it for automatic Seerr login.

Methods without passwords (QuickConnect) are only pre-filling the Seerr dialog with URL and user name. A manual configuration by entering the password is needed.

If Seerr is unreachable during the initial setup, credentials are persisted to retry Seerr login automatically at the next start of the app (so long until Seerr is reachable again).

Testing

Tested with following settings in plugin and Android TV emulator:

SeerrConfig:
  serverUrl: https://seerr.example.com
  login:
    type: Jellyfin     # ApiKey | Jellyfin | Local
    jellyfin:
      useCurrentUser: true
  • Tested login via password and QuickConnect (only autofill)
  • Tested restarts of App and restarts of Emulator
  • Tested user switching

Screenshots

no changes, only that Seerr integration gets automatically configured

This PR was developed in pair with Claude (Anthropic). I understand the code and can explain every change made in the PR. Manual end-to-end testing was performed by me on an Android TV emulator.

Consume the new /wholphin/seerrsettings endpoint to set up Seerr on first
Jellyfin login: server URL, auth method (ApiKey/Local/Jellyfin) and
credentials are pushed by the plugin so the user doesn't have to
configure Seerr manually.

Supports useCurrentUser=true for the Jellyfin auth method, which stashes
the in-memory Jellyfin password during password-based login and reuses
it for Seerr. On QuickConnect / token-based logins the password is not
available — the URL and username are pre-filled in the Add Seerr Server
dialog so the user only enters the password once.

If Seerr is unreachable during the initial setup, credentials are
persisted before the login attempt so subsequent app starts retry
automatically until Seerr is back. QuickConnect logins clear any
previously stored Jellyfin password to avoid using stale credentials.
