This is a Nix flake containing most packages released by the Jellyfin org. It also has a module for the Jellyfin server that allows you to manage a Jellyfin instance declaratively in nix code.
This flake exposes multiple Jellyfin packages with the latest stable release
(the version you get when running curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/$owner/$repo/releases/latest" | jq -r .tag_name)
Most of the nix code for these packages has been taken from nixpkgs, but gets updated automatically every day so I get updates way before nixpkgs does.
-
jellyfin: The basic server package
-
jellyfin-web: The
webpackage that acts as the frontend -
jellyfin-ffmpeg: The ffmpeg package forked by the jellyfin team
-
jellyfin-media-player: The desktop client
The module exposed by this flake adds more options to the nixpkgs one and uses this flake's packages by default.
It also allows you to declare settings found in Jellyfin's dashboard in
services.jellyfin.settings. If you do use this, the changes you do in
the dashboard will be overwritten by these ones on every restart.
I also can't guarantee these will always work because of how Jellyfin's config files can change after updates. You can take a look at how I make use of these settings here.
