docker-deluge

Docker container to run Deluge and web client in Ubuntu 16.04

Experimental image. deluged and deluge-web run as uid 1000.

Installation:

Download the image with:

docker pull kurankat/deluge

Create a folder for your downloads and another for your config, owned by your uid=1000 user.

Run a container with:

docker run -d --name deluge \
   -v /path/to/your/chosen/folder/downloads:/downloads \
   -v /path/to/your/chosen/folder/config:/home/user/.config/deluge \
   -p 8112:8112 \
   kurankat/deluge

Initialising

The deluge-web user interface will be at http://localhost:8112. It is set to a default password of "deluge". It is highly recommended to change this to a safe password. Log into the daemon and change the settings to use the /downloads folder for finished downloads.

Examples using docker-compose

If you have more than a couple of containers running, it's easier to use docker-compose to run your setup. You can use a couple of networking options.

Default networking (bridge)

Your deluge container will run in a docker-only network and you can choose to bind ports to the host. Your deluge container will be addressable using the IP address of the host.

docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
 deluge:
  container_name: deluge
  image: kurankat/deluge
  restart: always
  volumes:
   - ./downloads:/downloads
   - ./config:/home/user/.config/deluge
  ports:
   - "8112:8112"
   - "58846:58846"
   - "58946:58946"

Start your container by running docker-compose up -d.

Placing containers on a LAN (macvlan networking)

Your deluge container will run in a macvlan network, through a pre-configured bridge on the host, and attach directly to the router with its own IP address. The example below assumes that you have pre-configured a bridge in your Docker host, in this example br0

Make sure you assign IP addresses that are outside the router's DHCP range to avoid conflicts. In this example your container will be addressable in the LAN at 192.168.1.25

docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
 deluge:
  container_name: deluge
  image: kurankat/deluge
  restart: always
  volumes:
   - ./downloads:/downloads
   - ./config:/home/user/.config/deluge
  networks:
  example.lan:
   ipv4_address: <YOUR.CHOSEN.IP.ADDRESS>

networks:
 example.lan:
  driver: macvlan
  driver_opts:
   parent: br0
  ipam:
   config:
    - subnet: <YOUR.CHOSEN.IP.SUBNET>/24
