Plex Playlist Manager

An Svelte app that allows you to use touch/drag/drop to manage your Plex playlists easier on an iPad. The app is fully self-contained in the browser and does not use or require backend server - API calls are made from browser (fetch). Works on desktop as well, but you lose the touch drag/drop functionality. Does not work well on iPhone because the layout won't work on it.

You can:

• filter library view by most common filters (by year, decade, actor, director, genre, studio, country and rating)
• sort library view by title, year, release date, duration, rating, date added, date last viewed
• create/edit/delete playlists (only create regular playlist, not smart lists yet)
• drag and drop movies into regular playlists
• drag to reorder playlist content

Note: You will need to allow mixed-content if your Plex Server on your localnetwork doesn't support https.

If you access your local plex server like this: http://192.168.2.10:32400 instead of https://, then make sure you allow mixed-content for the above URL, otherwise you will not see any playlists or movies loading on your screen.

Code

The actual production code is in the /docs directory because Github Pages will only allow pages from the docs/ path or the master branch, so this was the easiest way to host the app.

# install parcel-bundler

  > yarn add parcel-bundler --dev

# run it 

  > yarn dev
