Jellyfin Smart Playlists (git.redxef.at)

Hi!

I've been working on a smart playlist plugin for Jellyfin for a couple of weeks, and by now it's at a stage where I can say it's usable and doesn't have any show-stopper bugs. The playlists are created and edited in the plugin's settings.

A simple configuration for all liked pop songs would look like this:

Id: Favourite Pop
Name: Favourite Pop
Program: |
  (and (is-type "Audio") (is-favorite) (is-genre "pop" (genre-list)))
SortProgram: |
  (begin *items*)

It supports reflection, so any filter or property can be added without modifying the plugin directly; most of the pre-defined filters are implemented this way.

There also is a mirror at Codeberg: codeberg.org/redxef/jellyfin-smart-playlist

I don't really understand the readme. Is the creation done in a cli or in the jellyfin UI?

I was missing this feature in jellyfin and this would be really great (I switched from plex which has it and I used it a lot 😅)

Ah, should probably make that more clear. Everything can be done in the settings of the plugin.
