docker-htpc-suite

A set of automated / manual scripts to control an integrated set of "dockerized" HTPC suite of tools, including

• sabnzbd
• couchpotato
• nzbdrone
• plex

Quick Start (using docker-compose)

On a docker-enabled, host, clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/funkypenguin/docker-htpc-suite.git

Then change into the working directory:

cd docker-htpc-suite

Edit docker-compose.yml, and change the media location folder on line 4.

Add a local user to the base docker host named "htpc" with UID 4242 (the meaning of 2 lives). Make sure this user has all the necessary access to the media folder location.

Start up the docker containers by running docker-compose up -d

This will do the following:

1. Establish a data container for common data access to a path on your filesystem (/srv/data by default), belonging to the user "htpc" with UID 4242
2. Start each app container, creating a subdirectory in the current working directory for its persistent config (database, settings, etc), and linking /data to the data container

You can now connect to your suite on the following URLs:

• sabnzbd : http://localhost:8080
• couchpotato : http://localhost:5050
• nzbdrone : http://localhost:8989
• plex : http://localhost:32400/web/

Manual Container Management (without docker-compose)

For greater flexibility, you can also manually start each container. The scripts/ folder includes startup scripts for each container, which are intended to be executed from the main repo directory.

For example:

./scripts/datastore.sh
./scripts/sabnzbd.sh
./scripts/plex.sh
./scripts/couchpotato.sh
./scripts/nzbdrone.sh

Planned Enhancements

• Integration of container for rtorrent / rutorrent
• Integration of container to run cron scripts against tools in suite
• Integration of container for nginx configured to proxy each tool, so that only a single port needs to be exposed via docker for management
