Developer d8c0a37210 Fix: settings master/detail, widget kind filter, reorder, media worker
Four fixes:

1. Settings > Services tab: master/detail layout. Replaced the vertical
   stack of ServiceConfigEditor cards with a SelectionRailCard (list on
   left) + SectionCard (details on right) — same pattern as Machines
   and SSH Keys tabs. Click a service in the rail to edit it.

2. Service Overview widget restriction. When adding widgets on a
   service's Overview, the dialog now only shows built-in widgets +
   widgets for THAT service type (not all services). Dashboard/named
   dashboards (no serviceId) still see all.

3. Reorder buttons fixed. The swap-sort_order approach was a no-op when
   both items had sort_order=0 (the default). Now moveInstance
   renumbers ALL items by their new index position (i * 10) after the
   swap, guaranteeing values change. References use updateRef, owned
   widgets use saveWidget, both sequential.

4. Media index worker resolution. The subprocess worker called
   get_jellyfin_client/get_user_id (FastAPI request dependencies) which
   don't work outside request context. Now accepts a service_id
   parameter (passed from post_build_index) and resolves the Jellyfin
   instance directly from the settings store via _resolve_jellyfin.
   Raises RuntimeError (not HTTPException) on failure.

283 backend tests pass; 128 frontend tests pass; ruff/eslint clean.

Manage Frontend

React + TypeScript SPA for Manage, consuming the FastAPI backend.

Tech Stack

  • Vite — Build tool
  • React 18+ — UI framework
  • TypeScript — Type safety
  • @tanstack/react-query — Data fetching/caching
  • @tanstack/react-table — Data tables (media, file browser)
  • react-router-dom — Client-side routing
  • Tailwind CSS + shadcn/ui — Styling

Setup

cd frontend
npm install

Development

npm run dev

Runs on http://localhost:5173 with API requests proxied to http://localhost:8000.

Make sure the backend is running:

cd ../backend
uvicorn media_library_viewer_api.main:app --reload --port 8000

Build

npm run build

Output goes to frontend/dist/.

Pages

  • Dashboard (/) — Now playing, library stats, configurable widgets and shortcuts, frontend/backend version chips in the shell header
  • Observability (/observability) — Thin dashboard: Alertmanager alerts, Prometheus target health, machine status, and Grafana deep-links (no in-app charting)
  • Media (/media) — Full-library table with sort/filter/search
  • Users (/users) — Read-only Jellyfin user list with optional Jellyseerr enrichment
  • File Browser (/files) — Remote directory browsing, ffprobe preview, jobs
  • Settings (/settings) — Persistent monitoring machine definitions, SSH keys, and setup workflow
  • Actions (/actions) — Saved server tasks (shell/python) targeting ssh_tasks services

Environment Variables

Set VITE_API_URL and any OIDC variables directly in your shell or Compose build args if the API is not at http://localhost:8000. The frontend version defaults to the package.json version and can be overridden with VITE_APP_VERSION and VITE_APP_BUILD_INFO when you need explicit deployed labels.

VITE_API_URL=http://your-backend-host:8000

Configuration workflow examples

  • Local development: run docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build, then open the app and add monitoring machines in the Settings tab.
  • Production: export the required Compose variables in your shell, run docker compose up --build, and manage local/remote machines from Settings.
  • Observability: Manage only deploys backend + frontend. It connects to existing Grafana/Prometheus/Alertmanager instances; see docker-compose.observability.yml for an optional standalone example stack. A machine can be local (the API host itself) or ssh (a remote host), and the UI treats both the same after configuration.

In development, the Vite proxy handles /api requests automatically. Observability services (Grafana, Prometheus, Alertmanager) are configured in the app on the Services page — there are no observability env vars.
