<a href="https://sofa.watch"><strong>Sofa</strong></a> — Self-hosted movie & TV tracker
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
Sofa is a self-hosted movie and TV tracker for nerds. Track what you've watched, discover what's next, and plug your data into your existing home media stack.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## What it does
|
|
|
|
- Track episode-level progress for TV series and pick shows back up from a dedicated "Continue Watching" view
|
|
- Mark movies as watched to discover more like them
|
|
- Rate titles, browse cast and crew, and get recommendations based on what you are already tracking
|
|
- Search TMDB and explore trending movies and shows without leaving your own instance
|
|
- Show streaming availability from TMDB's US provider data
|
|
- Automatically log completed watches from Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby webhooks
|
|
- Expose your watchlist as import lists for Sonarr and Radarr
|
|
- Runs on SQLite with local image caching, built-in backups, and no external database requirement
|
|
- Supports local accounts or OIDC SSO for private instances
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> Sofa is extremely US-centric right now, in terms of streaming providers, content rating systems, etc. Contributions to address this are more than welcome!
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
A minimal [`docker-compose.yml`](./docker-compose.yml) is provided in this repo. For most setups, the shortest path is:
|
|
|
|
1. Copy the example environment file:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Fill in the required values:
|
|
|
|
```env
|
|
TMDB_API_READ_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_tmdb_read_access_token
|
|
BETTER_AUTH_SECRET=generate_a_long_random_secret
|
|
BETTER_AUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Start the container:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
4. Open `http://localhost:3000` and create the first account. The first account becomes the admin automatically, and registration closes after that by default.
|
|
|
|
> The included Compose file uses `ghcr.io/jakejarvis/sofa:edge`. If you prefer to pin releases, switch to a published version tag like `ghcr.io/jakejarvis/sofa:<version>` or use the matching `jakejarvis/sofa:<version>` image on Docker Hub. Multi-arch images are published for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64`.
|
|
|
|
## Required setup
|
|
|
|
### TMDB
|
|
|
|
Sofa uses [TMDB](https://www.themoviedb.org/) for metadata, posters, cast, recommendations, and streaming availability. You need a TMDB API Read Access Token before the app can do anything useful.
|
|
|
|
Create one here:
|
|
|
|
- [TMDB signup](https://www.themoviedb.org/signup)
|
|
- [API settings](https://www.themoviedb.org/settings/api)
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> We want the **API Read Access Token**, not the shorter API key.
|
|
|
|
### Auth secret
|
|
|
|
`BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` should be a long random string. To generate one:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx @better-auth/cli@latest secret
|
|
# or
|
|
openssl rand -base64 32
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Public URL
|
|
|
|
Set `BETTER_AUTH_URL` to the real external URL of your instance. This especially matters for login flows and OIDC callbacks behind a reverse proxy (like nginx or Traefik).
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Required | Notes |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| `TMDB_API_READ_ACCESS_TOKEN` | Yes | TMDB metadata and discovery |
|
|
| `BETTER_AUTH_SECRET` | Yes | Session and auth secret |
|
|
| `BETTER_AUTH_URL` | Yes | Public base URL of the app |
|
|
| `DATA_DIR` | No | Root data directory. Defaults to `/data` in the container |
|
|
| `IMAGE_CACHE_ENABLED` | No | Defaults to enabled. Set to `false` to use TMDB images directly instead of caching them locally |
|
|
| `LOG_LEVEL` | No | `error`, `warn`, `info`, or `debug` |
|
|
| `OIDC_CLIENT_ID` | No | Enable OIDC when set with the matching secret and issuer |
|
|
| `OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET` | No | OIDC client secret |
|
|
| `OIDC_ISSUER_URL` | No | OIDC issuer URL |
|
|
| `OIDC_PROVIDER_NAME` | No | Login button label. Defaults to `SSO` |
|
|
| `OIDC_AUTO_REGISTER` | No | Defaults to `true` |
|
|
| `DISABLE_PASSWORD_LOGIN` | No | Set to `true` to hide email/password login when OIDC is configured |

|
|
See [`.env.example`](./.env.example) for the full list.
|
|
|
|
## Integrations
|
|
|
|
Sofa ships with two kinds of integrations (for now): incoming watch activity and outgoing import lists.
|
|
|
|
### Incoming watch activity
|
|
|
|
- Plex: logs completed watches through a webhook URL generated in Sofa. Requires an active [Plex Pass](https://www.plex.tv/plex-pass/) license.
|
|
- Jellyfin: works through the Jellyfin Webhook plugin.
|
|
- Emby: logs completed watches through webhooks. Requires Emby Server 4.7.9+ and an [Emby Premiere](https://emby.media/premiere.html) subscription.
|
|
|
|
These integrations are user-specific, so each user can connect their own media server account and watch history.
|
|
|
|
### Outgoing import lists
|
|
|
|
- Sonarr: expose your Sofa TV watchlist as a custom import list
|
|
- Radarr: expose your Sofa movie watchlist as a custom import list
|
|
|
|
## Development
