Running on Unraid
AlienTech42 has published a great video on installing and running RomM on Unraid. Check it out!
Before getting started, install the Community Apps plugin for Unraid.
If you're planning to use MariaDB as your database, install it from the plugin registry. Both the official and linuxserver versions are supported.
| Official | Linuxserver |

From the Unraid dashboard, click APPS in the navbar. In the search bar, search for zurdi15 romm; no results will appear, but that's normal. On the right side of the screen, click Click Here To Get More Results From DockerHub.
One of the first results should be romm by zurdi15. Once you find it, click Install.
If a confirmation window appears, click YES and CA will attempt to determine paths, ports and variables from the template.
Once the installation finishes, the configuration page will appear and should look something like this:
Configure the required environment variables, ports and paths as per the example docker-compose.yml file.
To use the MariaDB container setup in #prerequisites, add config options for the environment variables. Descriptions of the config options and sensible defaults are listed in the example docker-compose.yml file.
- DB_HOST
- DB_PORT
- DB_USER
- DB_NAME
- DB_PASSWD
Open an issue if you're having trouble getting RomM to run. State that you're trying to run RomM in Unraid, be specific about the issue, and append screenshots of your configuration.
To update to the latest version, select force update from the container list. **It's strongly recommended to backup the appdata folder (or mount it in a safe location) before updating, since tearing down the container will wipe the resources (covers, screenshots, etc.)
We want to give a special shoutout to @Smurre95 and @sfumat0 for their help documenting this process, and working towards getting RomM listed in CA. 🤝
