Comment on I present: Managarr - A TUI and CLI to help you manage your Servarr instances

Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

I’ll admit, as neat as this is, I’m a little unclear on the use case? Are there really situations where it’s easier to get a command prompt than it is to open a webpage?

The CLI side I can see more use for since that does expose a lot of actions to bash scripting, which could be neat. But on the whole I can’t say I’ve ever really found myself thinking “Man, I really wish I had a UI for managing Radarr, a program that already includes a really good UI.”

I know it’s shitty to hate on something just because you’re not the target for it. That’s not my intent, it’s more that I’m just fascinated by the question of how anyone has a burning need for this? It feels like there must be something I’m missing here.

Could be really useful to have a UI over SSH without opening your web interface to the world. I will try because it seems great for my use case !

  But that implies you do have your SSH open to the world, right?
  
  The way I access my private web interfaces remotely is through something like Netmaker, Tailscale or Zerotier. Same thing for SSH. No way in hell am I opening 22 on my router.

    You can use any port for ssh. When I switched from 22 to 1337, brute force attempts at logging in stopped

    Obscurity is not the same thing as security.

    All these companies do is make it easier to use wireguard, if you’re so afraid of them just use wireguard yourself, you’ll get the same effect

    You know those can be self hosted, right?
    
    And yes, but all means just set up your own Wireguard or OpenVPN access if that’s what you prefer. You do you bud.

Cli doesn’t make much sense to me either when the *arr suite has a well documented rest API already.
