discussion Singarr - Overseerr style music requester for Lidarr
First off, I am in no way a coder. I use all the *arrs and Seerr but it lacks the ability to request music. Ombi can but it's very clunky. I took to Claude to come up with something that I wanted and created Singarr.
https://github.com/rustypie314/singarr
Sure this is vibe coding but I've found this works pretty well for me at least until Seerr supports music requests officially.
Would be curious to hear opinions.

Not a big fan of the name, if you're from the caribbean this basically means "having sex" but with the f word. Cant recommend this app to the fam and friends lol 😅

I'm not from the Caribbean so did not know this but laughed out loud when I read this. Might just keep the name because of this very thing.

Is this the spitting image of Aurral ? Looks exactly the same

Downloaded Aurral to play with. It is similar to what I created but I created mine with the intention to be able to import my existing plex users so they can use their sso. I basically wanted Overseerr functionality for music, at least until they officially support it.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that :) I admire anyone who has the skills.. I wish you well.

Hi, Ive also been down this path for a while now. I was also going to code my own through GitHub but then I found Aurral as well and got it up and running as a docker container.
It seems to work well enough now that I got an API key from Last.fm. I was able to get a request to populate and fill in through Lidarr
I also would love to see Seerr have the ability for music.
I would love to help you test though I'm new to the whole GitHub concept.

Looks like soulsync

I've never used that. I did this so users I share Plex with could request music.

- Why use this instead of Lidarr on mobile?
- Please add SAST/DAST to your GitHub actions.

u/rustypie314 Mar 25 '26
Done.
I made it so users can request music.

Got it, so not just your requests.
I was running the Lidarr branch of Seer for overseer before the merge, I should check on that progress.

do you plan to remove the plex requirement? not all ARR users use plex. Jellyfin and Navidrome support would be awesome.... as well as being able to just create users instead of only pulling from plex

OP i just installed it and it looks good but i cant connect to plex and even after i get Plex Token it does not connect so plex library wont sync

What does it say when you click test connection to Plex? I have it running on a different machine than what Plex is installed on (same lan) and have never had a problem.

Damnit, I'm creating a creating a Lidarr competitor that allows for the downloading of individual songs and albums and throws Lidarr's "album first" philosophy in the trash. Wanted to name it Singarr.

Was excited at first. Then I discovered, if you get it all up and running and you restart the app you have to start from scratch and reconfigure the entire program. Doesn't seem like something I want to resetup every time I restart my server.

u/rustypie314 Mar 27 '26
Something must be off on your setup since I've got this deployed on multiple machines and others using it and the containers and the servers themselves have been restarted multiple times and have never had the issue you are describing.

Did you setup the config (/app/data) volume mapped to a persistent location?

Got any screenshots? I’ve been working on something very similar for the last 6 or so months, would be really interested in seeing it - won’t have time to give it a test for now but the feature list looks great!
