• Tautulli for monitoring Plex usage
• Sonarr for managing your TV shows
• Radarr for managing your movies
• Deluge for downloading torrents
• Jackett for searching torrents

Extras

Setup

Caddy

Caddy is an HTTP proxy, it is used to direct incoming SSL encrypted web traffic to the correct Docker container based on the requested hostname.

DNS

To use Caddy you'll have to setup your DNS so that each VIRTUAL_HOST points to your server IP.

Instructions for this vary based on your DNS provider but essentially you need:

• An A name of your root domain, i.e. example.org pointing to your server IP
• A CNAME of *.example.org pointing to example.org

You can also setup each hostname individually if you prefer.

Setup

Create the http network which Caddy will use to communicate to containers with

docker network create http

Then create a .env file in caddy/ containing your LetsEncrypt e-mail address. This just needs to be a valid e-mail address, there is no account to setup

CADDY_EMAIL=[e-mail]

Then start Caddy using

cd caddy
docker-compose up -d

Virtual Host

Each application needs a VIRTUAL_HOST environment variable to tell Caddy what hostname to serve each application on.

The best way to achieve this is by creating .env files in the stack directory

cd sonarr
echo "VIRTUAL_HOST=sonnar.example.org" >> .env
docker-compose up -d

You can also define the virtual host when starting the application stack with

cd sonarr
VIRTUAL_HOST=sonarr.example.org docker-compose up -d

OAuth

Each application is protected Google authentication using oauth2_proxy.

Add your list of allowed Google Mail users to /docker/auth/emails.txt in the host directory.

Follow these instructions on how to setup the Google authentication provider.

Applications

Plex with Tautulli

What	Where
Plex Config	/docker/plex
TV Shows	/ds/tvshows
Movies	/ds/movies

cd plex
echo "PLEX_VIRTUAL_HOST=plex.example.org" >> .env
echo "VIRTUAL_HOST=tautulli.example.org" >> .env
docker-compose up -d

Once Plex has started, to gain access from devices follow these steps (replace PLEX_VIRTUAL_HOST with the hostname you setup in your env file).

Note you do not need to enable Remote Access with this method.

• Open https://PLEX_VIRTUAL_HOST:3200 in your browser
• Setup the server as usual
• Go to Settings -> Network
• Set Secure connections to DISABLED. This doesn't actually disable secure connections to your server as Caddy will be arbitrating TLS
• Set Custom server access URLs to https://PLEX_VIRTUAL_HOST:3200

I also uncheck Enable Relay as I don't want my connections going via Plex's servers.

Deluge with VPN

What	Where
Deluge Config	/docker/deluge
VPN Config	/docker/vpn
Torrents	/ds/torrent

cd deluge
echo "DELUGE_VIRTUAL_HOST=deluge.example.org" >> .env
echo "JACKETT_VIRTUAL_HOST=jackett.example.org" >> .env
docker-compose up -d

All downloads and tracker searches will use a secure VPN connection. Find the OpenVPN configuration from your VPN provider and place it in /docker/vpn/vpn.conf.

Sonarr and Radarr

Replace the below with radarr to setup Radarr as well

What	Where
Config	/docker/sonarr
TV Shows	/ds/tvshows
Movies	/ds/movies
Torrents	/ds/torrent

cd sonarr
echo "VIRTUAL_HOST=sonarr.example.org" > .env
docker-compose up -d

Start and configure Jackett, then add a new Torznab indexer to Sonarr/Radarr. The URL and API Key to use for Jackett is http://jackett-api:9117/torznab/all/ more details can be found in this reddit post.

Configure and start Deluge, then add a new Deluge download client to Sonarr/Radarr. The hostname to enter is deluge-api and the port is 8112.
