Overview

This project provides a comprehensive setup for managing and automating your media download and organization using Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, and Overseer. It is designed to be easy to configure and run, with a focus on providing a unified interface for all your media needs.

The setup process involves generating API keys for each of the applications, setting up your desired hostname, timezone, email address for Let's Encrypt, and specifying the directory for media storage on your host machine. The project uses a Makefile for easy configuration and startup.

Once the setup is complete, you can access the Overseer interface via your specified hostname or localhost:5055. From there, you can configure each of the *arr (starr which is what the repo name is inspired from) apps

For users on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), additional configuration for Root Folders/Folder Mapping is required.

I personally use this as my daily driver and will continue to maintain the stack as the starr landscape changes, I aim to reduce the number of steps as much as possible.

Prerequisites

1. Docker
2. GNU Make (should be installed by default on most unix systems)
3. sed (should be installed by default on most unix systems)
4. bash (should be installed by default on most unix systems)
5. openssl (for generating API keys, you can also just use random string generator)

Getting Started

1. cp .env.example .env
2. Generate API key for each Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr apps using openssl rand -hex 16
3. Replace SERIES_SONARR_API_KEY, ANIME_SONARR_API_KEY, RADARR_API_KEY, PROWLARR_API_KEY with the generated key
4. Replace HOSTNAME with your desired public hostname
5. Replace TIMEZONE with your timezone
6. Replace LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL with your email address
7. Replace MEDIA_DIR with path to where you'll be storing media on your host machine
8. Replace USER_ID and GROUP_ID with your host user id and group id.
9. Run make configure-test, verify the config then run make configure
10. Run make start
11. Visit the HOSTNAME or localhost:5055 and configure Overseer using the wizard
12. For each Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr apps, configure the Download Client, I use qbittorrent
13. Configure Root Folders/Folder Mapping if you're using WSL
