feat: decouple Plex as a requirement for setting up/using Overseerr

[sct]

Description

This is the first step to opening up Overseerr to allow other media server integrations. Previously, Overseerr required signing in with a Plex account to get it configured. You can now create a local account instead of using Plex. If a local account is used, you will need to connect your Plex account still to use the Plex Media Server features.

To-Dos

• Decouple plex from the setup process
• Remove UserType from users (opens possibility for multiple user types per user)
• Add option to link/unlink Plex account from user settings (instead of only while logging in)
• Allow changing emails
• Disable Plex login when owner account does not have plex configured
• Do not allow new plex connections to accounts if owner account unlinks plex
• Successful build yarn build
• Translation keys yarn i18n:extract
• Database migration (if required)

For those who have patiently been waiting for this, it's still in progress! I am trying to sneak in time to get this done this new year's vacation. It's super close, so please wait just a little bit longer! 🙏

[DimitriDR]

I'm looking forward for this 🎉

Hey @sct! Just checking in and seeing how this is going. This is the final piece of the puzzle for me. Hope you've had a wonderful New Year's vacation!

We are still working on it!

Is there a way to help, and most importantly, what is the estimated release date?

That's crucial information because a very viable and full featured release already exists with Jellyseerr, so if there isn't a near term road map folks will want to use that instead. Are you working with the Jellyseerr developers to pull in their improvements?

If the release date is significantly distant, it'd make sense to focus on a migration path for Jellyseerr, as well as to double down on collaboration with the devs of that project.

Please let us know the best way to collaborate to get this feature released.

We don't provide ETAs. We spare whatever free time we have and that's the best I can tell you in terms of delivery time.

I am aware of Jellyseerr. That's the beauty of open source. We also now have an internal roadmap with Jellyseerr devs we are referencing to get Jellyfin support back ported to Overseerr once this is merged.

I know people are waiting for this. It's close. Just hang on a bit longer.

f*ck you stale bot

[CEbbinghaus]

Can't wait for this to be merged. I assume this is purely a structural change to allow for jellyfin/emby but doesn't directly add them?

[tobz]

Has there been any movement here?

I have still have #3105 open which was tacitly waiting on this work to shake out, but it's not clear to me if this work has stalled entirely or what.

[CEbbinghaus]

yikes. Unstale please

[mattkatz]

I suggest adding the never-stale label to avoid our friendly stale-bot freaking folks out as core careful decoupling like this takes a lotta time and effort to get right.

[Emalton]

Is this still being worked on?

[gunanr]

Is this still being worked on?

Considering the dev teams reluctance to provide ETAs and refusal of further assistance in this thread I'm guessing no. It doesn't seem that any of them use Jellyfin so it seems we should be content with Jellyseer for the forseable future or just move to Ombi. 🤷‍♂️
