Install Javinizer (Web GUI)

The GUI version of Javinizer may not be updated at the same rate as the CLI version.

The Javinizer GUI supports two install methods:

Docker

Docker is the preferred method for installing and running the Javinizer Web GUI. The Javinizer image lives on Docker Hub. To quickstart, run the following command:

docker run --name javinizer -p 8600:8600 -d javinizer/javinizer:latest

Persisting Data

You will most likely want to persist settings data when running Javinizer within Docker.

Your sort input and output paths should be using the same bind mount, otherwise moving files between them will take an extended amount of time.

Docker Run Example

docker run --name javinizer -p 8600:8600 -v path/to/jvSettings.json:/home/jvSettings.json -d javinizer/javinizer:latest

To persist your settings file, create a copy of the settings file and bind mount the file:

  • /home/jvSettings.json

To persist other settings files, set paths in your location settings.

Docker Desktop Example

If you are using Docker Desktop with Hyper-V, you will want to make use of "File Sharing". In your Docker Desktop settings, add your mount directories and click Apply & Restart. Using WSL2, you will have to use a different method.

With the example path of C:\javinizer\docker, I can now run the following command to persist the PowerShell Universal appdata:

docker run --name Javinizer -p 8600:8600 -v C:/javinizer/docker/jvSettings.json:/home/jvSettings.json javinizer/javinizer:latest

Unraid Example

If you want to use Javinizer via Docker on Unraid, here is an example template.

Windows

The Javinizer GUI can be installed on Windows.

Install Dependencies

You will need to install the Javinizer CLI and its dependencies. View the instructions on the Install Javinizer (CLI) page for details. This includes:

  • PowerShell Core

  • Python 3

    • googletrans module

    • google_trans_new module

    • pillow module

  • MediaInfo (optional)

  • Javinizer module

After installing Javinizer and its dependencies, run PowerShell as administrator and run the following command to install PowerShell Universal and other required modules.

Javinizer -InstallGUI

Once this installation has completed and both PowerShell and Python modules are installed, run the following command to open the GUI page.

# Runs by default on port 8600
Javinizer -OpenGUI
# (Optional) You can set a custom port
Javinizer -OpenGUI -Port 8080

The -OpenGUI command will automatically open a page tohttp://localhost:<PORT>/ which contains the Javinizer GUI.

Use Network Paths

If the files you want to sort live on a network path in Windows, it is likely that you will need to re-mount your network drives within an admin scope.

Run PowerShell or CMD as administrator and run the following command to mount your network drive. Substitute g: for the drive letter of your choice.

# Network drive
net use g: \\server\share

# Network drive that requires authentication
net use g: \\server\share /user:<username> <password>

If you are still unable to see your network drive after mounting via an administrator prompt, you can mount your drive directly from the Admin tab in the Javinizer GUI.

Add PowerShell 7 Environment

If your PowerShell Universal did not automatically detect your PowerShell 7 installation, you can add it manually.

  1. Navigate to the PowerShell Universal admin page

    1. http://localhost:<PORT>/admin

    2. Username is admin with any password

  2. On the sidebar, navigate to Settings -> Environments

  3. Click the Add button

  4. Fill in the Name and Path entries and click OK

  5. On the sidebar, navigate to Dashboards -> Dashboards and edit the existing Javinizer dashboard entry

  6. Set the environment to the new environment that you created
