Emby WHMCS module

This module enables your company to offer public media services to customers through Emby accounts. It facilitates the creation of customer accounts on a pre-configured Emby server, allowing for the sale of various media packages at different prices. The module requires a pre-installed Emby server and uses the Emby API for client account management. It also supports multiple languages. Administrators can suspend, terminate, or unsuspend users, change user passwords, and more, while clients can manage their devices and libraries. Starting from version v1.3, the module supports Emby Connect functionality.

Thanks to the module, the company is able to offer public media services to its customers based on Emby accounts.

The module is used to create customer accounts on the previously prepared Emby server. The module enables You to define multiple public media packages and sell them at different prices. The module creates a customer account according to the selected package. The client can have many independent accounts in the media.

Moreover, the module seamlessly integrates with Emby Connect functionality, enabling users to access their media accounts across different devices and platforms with ease.

For the correct operation of the module, a pre-prepared Emby installation is required (the module does not assist in the installation of the Emby server and assumes that such installation is ready for operation through API.) Module use Emby API to manage clients account.

We have prepared a detailed installation manual for the module, including all the steps needed to implement the module, including the preparation of the Emby server, including all installation steps such as PHP, Emby , SSL certificates etc.

1. Install Emby on your server

To simplify deployment and help automate this for as many users as possible, we provide a BASH script to handle repo installation as well as installing Emby. All you need to do is run this command on your system

wget https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby.Releases/releases/download/4.7.14.0/emby-server-deb_4.7.14.0_amd64.deb
dpkg -i emby-server-deb_4.7.14.0_amd64.deb

2. SSL certificate generation:

sudo apt install nginx certbot python3-certbot-nginx
sudo certbot --nginx --agree-tos --redirect --hsts --staple-ocsp --email YOUR_EMAIL -d DOMAIN_NAME
echo "0 0 * * *  root  certbot renew --quiet --no-self-upgrade --post-hook 'systemctl reload nginx'" | sudo tee -a /etc/cron.d/renew_certbot

 

3. Configure nginx from a subdomain

Create a file named nginx.conf.

cd /etc/nginx/conf.d/
nano nginx.conf

Then, insert the following text, replacing DOMAIN_NAME with your domain.

# Uncomment the commented sections after you have acquired a SSL Certificate
server {
        listen 80;
        #listen [::]:80;
        server_name DOMAIN_NAME;

        # Uncomment to redirect HTTP to HTTPS
        return 302 https://$host$request_uri;
}

server {
        listen 443 ssl http2;
        #listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
        server_name DOMAIN_NAME;
