Hello everyone,
first of all, I want to sincerely apologize to every developer out there. Please keep in mind that I couldn’t find any existing software that does exactly this, and I’m a DevOps engineer with limited time — not a programmer.
I created this software almost entirely with GitHub Copilot, so I honestly don’t know much about the inner workings or why it functions as it does — but at least for me, it works. My manual contribution was around 15%, so I’m aware it’s probably not very secure. Please take this into consideration.
My hope is that someone with more experience will like the idea/project and take it over so it can grow into a great piece of software.
Subscribarr is a tool where you and your Jellyfin users can subscribe to ongoing series, for example anime. Subscribarr checks on a cron schedule every 30 minutes whether a new episode has been released for a series a user is subscribed to, and whether it has already been downloaded and is ready to watch in Jellyfin. If so, the user is notified via email.
You can find the code here:
