Service Seerr

Service: Seerr

Seerr is a request app: you and the people you share your media server with ask for a movie or a series, and Seerr hands it to Radarr or Sonarr. It's the successor of Overseerr and Jellyseerr, and works with Plex, Jellyfin and Emby.

The image runs as PUID:PGID (user: in compose) rather than reading PUID/PGID itself, and init.sh hands appdata/seerr to that user. Seerr isn't put inside the VPN: it talks to your media server and to the people using it, not to indexers.

Turning it on

Add seerr to COMPOSE_PROFILES (or tick it in the setup wizard, under Requests) and run ./scripts/init.sh. It creates the seerr database, the folder, and adds a requests suite with Seerr to an existing wranglarr.toml.

First start

Open Seerr (port 5055) and sign in with your Plex, Jellyfin or Emby account. That's Seerr's own setup; it makes you the admin and picks the media server. Seerr's users are your media server's users, so there's no separate login to set (App logins).

After that wranglarr adds every Radarr and Sonarr to Seerr by itself, within 5 minutes. Until then the links show waiting on the System and Connections pages (Connections).

Behind a reverse proxy

Seerr needs its own host name (requests.example.com); it doesn't work under a path. With AuthTunnel it isn't put behind wranglarr-gate: the people requesting things don't have a wranglarr account, and Seerr has its own sign-in (Reverse Proxy).

wranglarr integration

Seerr is its own suite, requests, so it's backed up and restored on its own. A version holds the seerr database dump and /app/config as a plain folder, without logs/ and cache/. Stats: requests, pending, available; scope: the media server and the number of Radarr and Sonarr servers.
