Hii, this is my first devlog about my project which is pride and honor. Let me introduce it first. I have a home server, sitting next to the router in my house. I use it for many things but one of them is entertainment. For that I use Jellyfin for streaming, radarr and sonarr for adding to the library. The issue I ran into is when granting access to these apps for friends and family I had to send 3 username+passwords and along the way as I add more services more and more passwords would be needed. So I decided to look for a SSO. There are many selfhosted options which do work well, but all had 1 downside. They need the service itself to support SSO’s. I thought about contributing to those services to integrate SSO’s but at the time I was too scared and didn’t have enough knowledge to be sure of what I am even doing. So I decided to write my
own. What I came up with was a backend - for handling API’s and DB requests for user’s credentials, nginx - a proxy and routing to redirect authorization to my backend, frontend- a status dashboard, administration, and a login page for users to log in. Before stardance I managed to create the status page, form for users to log in, administration panel for adding users and adding credentials for them, as well as proxying Jellyfin, Sonarr and Radarr but only when using a browser. During stardance I want to expand and improve my SSO. This devlog covers the first improvements I made during stardance. I improved the UI of creating new users as well as adding the option to remove users. I also improved the UI of Credential management and adding the option to remove credentials, and adding the “Service Access” page to add and remove access for users to certain services. This was pretty easy as I had all the blocks in place, create a API for deleting users, credential, and access, create a API for fetching username’s. And building the UI was just expanding already existing features. I look forward to expanding more features.
