Installation

Installation

Marquee ships as a single Docker image with Postgres inside it, so there's one container to run and nothing else to install. Database migrations apply themselves on every start.

You'll need: Docker, and a free TMDb key. A free TheTVDB key is optional and fills in artwork TMDb doesn't have yet.

Docker Compose

git clone https://github.com/TimmyAmant/marquee.git
cd marquee
cp .env.local.example .env

Fill in .env (see Configuration for what each value is), then:

docker compose up -d

This pulls the prebuilt image — Docker Hub or ghcr.io/timmyamant/marquee, both amd64 and arm64 — rather than building locally. Use docker compose up -d --build if you've changed the source.

Open http://<your-server-ip>:3000. The first visit creates the admin account; there's no public signup after that.

Unraid

Community Applications (recommended). Open the Apps tab, search "marquee", install. It's one container — fill in POSTGRES_PASSWORD and the other fields the template asks for; the rest is pre-filled. The template lives at unraid-templates/marquee.xml.

Compose Manager. Install the plugin from Community Applications and point it at this repo's docker-compose.yml. Change APP_PORT in .env first if 3000 is taken.

Updating

Pull the new image and recreate the container — on Unraid that's Force Update. Migrations run at startup, and your data stays where it is. Check Releases for what changed.
