Options in settings.yml

Note: Having {{user}} in the path tells Ansible to fill in the username automatically. You do not need to fill in your actual username.

---

• nzbget

  • downloads: Path for NZBGet downloads. Default is /mnt/local/downloads/nzbget.

• rutorrent:

  • downloads: Path for ruTorrent downloads. Default is /mnt/local/downloads/rutorrent.

• plex:

  • tag: Determines what version of Plex to install. Options are public, beta, or version tag (e.g. "1.12.3.4973-215c28d86"). Default is public.

    • Note 1: The beta tag (formerly plexpass) requires an active Plex Pass account.

    • Note 2: Hardware Transcoding requires an active Plex Pass account.

    • Note 3: If you decide to change the tags later, you will need to update Plex by running the Cloudbox install command with the "plex" tag (i.e. sudo ansible-playbook cloudbox.yml --tags plex).

  • transcodes: Path of temporary transcoding files. Default is "/home/{{user}}/transcodes".

    • Note: It is recommended to not use /tmp or /dev/shm as a transcode location because the paths are cleared on reboots, causing Docker to create the folder as root and Plex transcoder to crash. Another reason why not to: https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/comment/1502936/#Comment_1502936.

• rclone:

  • version: Rclone version that is installed by Cloudbox. Choices are latest or version number (e.g. 1.42). Default is latest.

• backup:

  • tar_dest: Path for local backups (.tar). Only the most recent backup is kept. Default is /home/{{user}}/Backups.

    • Note: Ensure the path does NOT have a trailing slash (/) or else backup will fail (i.e. /sample/path, but not /sample/path/).

  • rsync_dest: Path for rsync backups (.tar). Only the most recent backup is kept.

    • Note: Ensure the path does NOT have a trailing slash (/) or else backup will fail (i.e. /sample/path, but not /sample/path/).

  • rclone_dest: Path for cloud backups (e.g. Google Drive). Older backups are stored in the archived folder. Default is google:/Backups.

    • Note: Ensure the path does NOT have a trailing slash (/) or else backup "could" fail (i.e. /sample/path, but not /sample/path/).

  • keep_local_copy: Option to save local copies of the backup file in tar_dest after backup is complete. Default is true.

  • use_rsync: Option to enable/disable rsync backups. Options are true or false. Default is false.

  • use_rclone: Option to enable/disable cloud (i.e Google Drive) backups. Options are true or false. Default is false.

  • cron_time: How often to backup should run (only when cron_state is set to present). Options are reboot, yearly, annually, weekly, daily, or hourly. Default is weekly.

    • Note: It is not recommended to schedule backups hourly as backing up may take a long time and cause future backup attempts to fail (the backup will not occur while another one is in progress, thanks to backup.lock file being created/removed during this process).

  • cron_state: Option to enable/disable automatic backups. Options are absent or present. Default is absent.

    • absent will remove any existing backup schedule.

    • present will ensure it is always scheduled.

    • Note 1: Whenever this option is changed (e.g. absent to present; present to absent), a manual backup (sudo ansible-playbook cloudbox.yml --tags backup) must be run once in order to enable or disable the backup schedule.

    • Note 2: This option just allows Cloudbox to schedule the backup for you. You can also setup scheduled backups by creating root cron tasks.

  • pushover_app_token: Pushover App Token. Enables notifications to be sent when a backup task starts and finishes (requires both the pushover_app_token and the pushover_user_key). Default is blank.

  • pushover_user_key: Pushover User Key. Enables notifications to be sent when a backup task starts and finishes (requires both the pushover_app_token and the pushover_user_key). Default is blank.
