I made a fork of this script here:
https://gist.github.com/anjumrafidofficial/fe3b986ff15246a47851f9d0da0e202f
Main change is this scripts will use token instead of password.

Thanks for the fix +1
to add here is a guide on getting the token

Was a docker container of your script ever made?

I've created one. Have a look: https://github.com/origamiofficial/docker-ngrok-plex
