# Jellyfin Seasonals Plugin
|
|
|
|
Jellyfin Seasonals is a plugin that adds seasonal themes to your Jellyfin web interface. Depending on the configuration, it automatically selects a theme based on the current date or allows you to manually set a default theme.
|
|
|
|
This plugin is based on my manual mod (see the `manual` branch), which builds up on the awesome work of [BobHasNoSoul-jellyfin-mods](https://github.com/BobHasNoSoul/jellyfin-mods).

## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Automatic Theme Selection**: Dynamically updates the theme based on the date (e.g., snowflakes in December, fireworks for new year's eve).
|
|
- **Easy Integration**: No manual file editing required. The plugin injects everything automatically.
|
|
- **Configuration UI**: Configure settings directly in the Jellyfin Dashboard (very basic for now, needs some work in the future).
|
|

|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> Take a look at [CodeDevMLH/Jellyfin-Mods-Automated-Script](https://github.com/CodeDevMLH/Jellyfin-Mods-Automated-Script)
|
|
|
|
1. **Add Seasonal Container to `index.html`**
|
|
Edit the `index.html` file of your Jellyfin web instance. Add the following code inside the `<body>` tag:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<div class="seasonals-container"></div>
|
|
<script src="seasonals/seasonals.js"></script>
|
|
```
|
|
2. **Deploy Files**
|
|
Place the seasonals folder (including seasonals.js, CSS, and additional JavaScript files for each theme [this one](https://github.com/CodeDevMLH/Jellyfin-Seasonals/tree/main/seasonals)) inside the Jellyfin web server directory (labeld with "web").
|
|
|
|
3. **Configure Themes**
|
|
Customize the theme-configs.js file to modify or add new themes. The default configuration is shown below:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const automateThemeSelection = true; // Set to false to disable automatic theme selection based on current date
|
|
const defaultTheme = 'none'; // Default theme if automatic selection is off
|
|
|
|
const themeConfigs = {
|
|
snowflakes: {
|
|
css: 'seasonals/snowflakes.css',
|
|
js: 'seasonals/snowflakes.js',
|
|
containerClass: 'snowflakes'
|
|
},
|
|
snowfall: {
|
|
css: 'seasonals/snowfall.css',
|
|
js: 'seasonals/snowfall.js',
|
|
containerClass: 'snowfall-container'
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
// more configs...
|
|
|
|
none: {
|
|
containerClass: 'none'
|
|
},
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. **Reload the web interface**
|
|
After making these changes, restart your Jellyfin server and/or refresh the web interface (ctrl+F5, sometimes you need to clear the browsers temp files/cache (every time with firefox ;-()) to see the changes.
|
|
|
|
### Theme Settings
|
|
Each theme's JavaScript file contains additional settings to customize its behavior. Here are examples for the `autumn` and `snowflakes` themes:
|
|
|
|
**Autumn Theme Settings**
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const leaves = true; // Enable/disable leaves
|
|
const randomLeaves = true; // Enable random leaves
|
|
const randomLeavesMobile = false; // Enable random leaves on mobile devices
|
|
const enableDiffrentDuration = true; // Enable different animation duration for random leaves
|
|
const leafCount = 25; // Number of random extra leaves
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Snowflakes Theme Settings**
|
|
```javascript
|
|
const snowflakes = true; // Enable/disable snowflakes
|
|
const randomSnowflakes = true; // Enable random snowflakes
|
|
const randomSnowflakesMobile = false; // Enable random snowflakes on mobile devices
|
|
const enableColoredSnowflakes = true; // Enable colored snowflakes on mobile devices
|
|
const enableDiffrentDuration = true; // Enable different animation duration for random snowflakes
|
|
const snowflakeCount = 25; // Number of random extra snowflakes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Usage
|
|
**Automatic Theme Selection**
|
|
By default, the theme is automatically selected based on the date. For example:
|
|
|
|
Snowfall: January
|
|
Hearts: February (Valentine's Day)
|
|
Halloween: October
|
|
|
|
Modify the determineCurrentTheme() function in seasonals.js to adjust date-based logic.
|
|
|
|
**Manual Theme Selection**
|
|
To use a fixed theme, set automateThemeSelection to false in the theme-configs.js file and specify a defaultTheme.
|
|
|
|
**Custom Themes**
|
|
1. Add your CSS and JavaScript files to the seasonals folder.
|
|
|
|
2. Extend the themeConfigs object with your theme details:
|
|
```javascript
|
|
myTheme: {
|
|
css: 'seasonals/my-theme.css',
|
|
js: 'seasonals/my-theme.js',
|
|
containerClass: 'my-theme-container',
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Additional Directory: Separate Single Seasonals
|
|
For users who prefer not to use the automatic seasonal theme selection, individual seasonals are available in the `separate single seasonals` folder. Each seasonal theme can be independently loaded and used without relying on the main automatic selection system.
|
|
|
|
but this requires to the modify of the `index.html` with adding the html in `add_to_index_html`.
|
|
|
|
To use a single seasonal theme, include its specific CSS and JS files in your `index.html` inside the `<body> </body>` tags provided by `add_to_index_html.html` in the sub-theme-folders as shown below:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<div class="seasonalsname-container"></div>
|
|
<script src="separate single seasonals/snowflakes.js"></script>
|
|
<link rel="stylesheet" href="separate single seasonals/snowflakes.css">
|
|
|
|
</details>
