# Registering users manually
|
|
|
|
You might want to disable registration in your [instance config](/configuration), but still have a quick way to manually register users upon request. To do so, first set up a separate instance that only listens on localhost, has registration enabled,
|
|
and captchas as well as background jobs disabled. Make sure you have a way to start it easily with just one or a few commands, e.g. via a systemd service. Then, use something like the script below (in the example, the instance is started via a systemd
|
|
service called `podman-invidious_register`, and it listens on localhost port 21742. **Warning**: This script is vulnerable to SQL injections. Only use trusted inputs; if you want to make a custom signup form and use this as a backend, be sure to
|
|
sanitize inputs.
|
|
```sh
|
|
#!/usr/bin/env bash
|
|
set -e
|
|
|
|
systemctl start podman-invidious_register
|
|
|
|
CONTINUE='y'
|
|
while [ "$CONTINUE" = 'y' ]; do
|
|
read -rp 'User ID: ' ID
|
|
if [ "$(su postgres -c "psql invidious -c \"SELECT email FROM users WHERE email = '\"'$ID'\"';\"" | tail -n 2 | head -n 1)" != '(0 rows)' ]; then
|
|
echo 'Error: User ID is already taken'
|
|
continue
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
read -rsp 'Password: ' PASSWORD
|
|
|
|
curl -L 'http://localhost:21742/login' --form-string "email=$ID" --form-string "password=$PASSWORD" -F 'action=signin' >/dev/null
|
|
|
|
read -rp 'Register more accounts? [y/N] ' CONTINUE
|
|
done
|
|
|
|
systemctl stop podman-invidious_register
|
|
```
