README.md

Request a show, nobody touches anything: the *arr stack

Companion repo for the video. Follow one request from a phone to the Plex library: Seerr, Sonarr/Radarr, Prowlarr, a download client (behind a VPN if you torrent), hardlinks, Plex and Bazarr.

Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZfSArJOKvc

These are examples to read, copy and adapt, not a product. Every hostname, path, ID and key is a placeholder. I run everything on Kubernetes with Helm; the video says the same setup works in plain Docker, so the examples here are Docker Compose.

What's here

Folder Part of the video
steps/01-data-root Shared data root, PUID/PGID, UMASK (body_7, body_9, body_18, body_19)
steps/02-seerr-sonarr-radarr Seerr, Sonarr and Radarr, root folders (body_5 to body_7)
steps/03-prowlarr-indexers Usenet vs torrents, Prowlarr (body_10 to body_13)
steps/04-download-clients SABnzbd, qBittorrent, VPN pattern, full compose (body_14 to body_16)
steps/05-verify-hardlinks Hardlinks and the ls -li check (body_17 to body_21, body_25)
steps/06-plex-and-bazarr Naming, Plex notification, Bazarr (body_22 to body_24)
steps/07-backups-and-next Backups, TRaSH Guides, Notifiarr, the other arrs (body_26 to body_30)

Prerequisites

  • A working Plex server (the video assumes you already have one).
  • Somewhere to keep a lot of files, like a NAS, and a way to run containers.
  • For Usenet: a provider and an indexer, which cost money. For torrents: a client behind a VPN. The video names no providers and neither does this repo.
  • A browser tab per app: they are all configured through their own web UI.

Follow along

  1. Create the shared data root and pick one PUID/PGID: steps/01-data-root.
  2. cp .env.example .env, fill it in, then bring up the apps from steps/02-... and add Prowlarr, the clients and the VPN from steps/04-....
  3. Configure each app in its web UI as described in each step's README.
  4. Request something small in Seerr and run steps/05-verify-hardlinks/check-hardlinks.sh.

Notes and caveats

  • The Compose files are my reading of the video's setup, written for this repo. They were not run as part of making the video, so treat them as a starting point.
  • Image names are variables in .env.example that you must fill in with a version tag you choose. Don't use latest for something you want to reproduce.
  • This is managing your own library. Some content is not legal to download where you live; don't download it.
