RE: JellySearch - Zedniac - 2024-09-18
I've been trying to set this up on my Unraid server tonight but having trouble. By default it doesn't use Docker Compose but instead WebUI that lets you set all the Docker variables/paths/ports etc and as far as I can tell I've set it up according to the instructions. Jellysearch can find the SQL file from the Jellyfin folder just fine. Per the Jellysearch and Meilisearch logs, those two can talk to each other - Jellysearch indexes, then Meilisearch does. My Jellyfin is also set up in and accessible through NPM. I have the custom location set up per the Gitlab docs, including setting proxy_pass to the actual IP and port of my Jellysearch container.
However, when I search in Jellyfin, no results are returned. When searching, nothing happens in the Jellysearch log either. (I'm not sure whether Jellysearch returns anything in the log when receiving a query, so I can't tell if the query isn't getting to Jellysearch, or if Jellysearch can't return it to me.)
I'm not real experienced with reverse proxy and the like so I'm guessing it's something I did wrong, but so far I can't figure out what it is. Any ideas? If more info is needed to determine what's going wrong just let me know.

Well, disregard the above I guess. I took a break to get some sleep and when I came back to this it was working lol. My guess is that it had never finished indexing or something since I had kept restarting Jellysearch as I made changes.
So far it works great, much faster than default search. The only issue I'm having is that Finamp on my iPhone can't search for Artists - it can search Albums and Tracks, but when I search Artists it says "No items found - the list is currently empty." Jellysearch logs show "No hits, not proxying" when searching this way. Searching in the Jellyfin WebUI does return Artists results, however. Since Finamp is a separate app this may not be Domi's purview, but thought I'd mention it in case there was any known issue or a fix.
Regardless, the search is much faster overall, which was my main concern with Jellyfin as a new user, so thanks for creating this!
