Ezarr

Ezarr is a project built to make it EZ to deploy a Servarr mediacenter on an Ubuntu server. The badge above means that the shell script and docker-compose file in this repository at least don't crash. It doesn't necessarily mean it will run well on your system ;) It's set up to follow the TRaSH guidelines so it should at least perform optimally. It features:

• Sonarr is an application to manage TV shows. It is capable of keeping track of what you'd like to watch, at what quality, in which language and more, and can find a place to download this if connected to Prowlarr and qBittorrent. It can also reorganize the media you already own in order to create a more uniformly formatted collection.
• Radarr is like Sonarr, but for movies.
• Bazarr is a companion application to Sonarr and Radarr that manages and downloads subtitles based on your requirements.
• Lidarr is like Sonarr, but for music.
• Mylar3 is like Sonarr, but for comic books. This one is a bit tricky to set up, so do so at your own risk. In order to connect this to your Prowlarr container, the process within Prowlarr is the same as for the other containers (add app). You'll have to add an API key within Mylar3, yourself.
• Audiobookshelf is a self-hosted audiobook and podcast server.
• Homarr is a sleek, modern dashboard that puts all of your apps and services at your fingertips.
• Prowlarr can keep track of indexers, which are services that keep track of Torrent or UseNet links. One can search an indexer for certain content and find a where to download this. Note: when adding an indexer, please do not set the "seed ratio" to less than 1. Less than 1 means that you upload less than you download. Not only is this unfriendly towards your fellow users, but it can also get you banned from certain indexers.
• Jackett is an alternative to Prowlarr.
• FlareSolverr is a proxy server to bypass Cloudflare and DDoS-GUARD protection.
• qBittorrent can download torrents and provides a bunch more features for management.
• SABnzbd can download nzb's features for management.
• PleX is a mediaserver. Using this, you get access to a Netflix-like interface across many devices like your laptop or computer, your phone, your TV and more. For some features, you need a PleX pass.
• Tautulli is a monitoring application for PleX which can keep track of what has been watched, who watched it, when and where they watched it, and how it was watched.
• Jellyfin is an alternative for PleX. Which you'd like to use is a matter of preference, and you could even use both, although this is probably a waste of resources.
• Overseerr is a show and movie request management and media discovery tool.
• Jellyseerr is like Overseerr, but for Jellyfin.

Requirements

Currently, this script only works on Linux. There is a chance that the sample docker compose file will work on Windows, although untested. The only requirements other than that are Python 3 and docker with docker-compose-v2. While this script may work on docker-compose-v1 it's made to be and highly recommended to be run using v2. The easiest way to install these dependencies on Ubuntu and other Debian-based distors is by running:

sudo apt-get install python3 docker.io docker-compose-v2

For other Linux distros you may have to use a different package manager or download directly from docker's website.

Using

Using the CLI

To make things easier, a CLI has been developed. First, clone the repository in a directory of your choosing. You can run it by entering python3 main.py and the CLI will guide you through the process. This is the recommended method if you're setting this up for the first time on a new system. Please take a look at important notes before you continue. NOTE: This script will create users for each container with IDs ranging from 13001 to 13014. If you want to choose your own IDs (or some of them are occupied) you have to go through the manual install.

Manually

If you're installing this for the first time simply follow these steps. If you're coming from an older version or reinstalling with different IDs, run remove_old_users.sh to clean up old users and then follow these steps.

1. To get started, clone the repository in a directory of your choosing. git clone https://github.com/Luctia/ezarr.git
2. Copy .env.sample to a real .env by running $ cp .env.sample .env.
3. Set the environment variables to your liking. Pay special attention ROOT_DIR as this is where everything is going to be stored in. The path in this value needs to be absolute. If you leave it empty it's going to install in the directory the .env file is currently in. UID should be set to the ID of the user that you want to run docker with. You can find this by running id -u from that user's shell.
4. Run setup.sh as superuser. This will set up your users, a system of directories and ensure permissions are set correctly.
5. Copy docker-compose.yml.sample to a real docker-compose.yml by running $ cp docker-compose.yml.sample docker-compose.yml.
6. Take a look at the docker-compose.yml file. If there are services you would like to ignore (for example, running PleX and Jellyfin at the same time is a bit unusual), you can comment them out by placing # in front of the lines. This ensures they are ignored by Docker compose. Double check that your .env file is set up properly. Also make sure to add a newly generated encryption key to the Homarr section, if you want to use it.
7. Run docker compose up -d to start the containers. If it complains about permissions run the following commands to add your current user to the docker group and apply changes:

   sudo groupadd docker
   sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
   newgrp docker
   

   If it still doesn't work reboot your system.

That's it! Your containers are now up and you can continue to set up the settings in them. Please take a look at important notes before you continue.

Important notes

• You probably shouldn't run the python script as root. Ideally you should create a brand new user that's just for these services, but any regular user will do. It will need your password for sudo to set up the permissions and folder structures, but you shouldn't run it as root.
• If you already used this script previously and want to clean up old users, run remove_old_users.sh. This is also recommended if you are updating from an earlier version of this script, since there were previously some conflicts in user IDs.
• It is recommended to restart your system after script completion, so that newly created users and groups can be loaded properly.
• When linking one service to another, remember to use the container name instead of localhost.
• Please set the settings of the -arr containers as soon as possible to the following (use advanced):
  • Media management:
    • Use hardlinks instead of Copy: true
    • Root folder: /data/media/ and then tv, movies or music depending on service
  • qBittorrent ships with a default username admin and a one-time password that can be viewed by running docker logs qbittorrent.
  • Make sure to set a username and password for all servarr services and qBittorrent!
• In qBittorrent, after connecting it to the -arr services, you can indicate it should move torrents in certain categories to certain directories, like torrents in the radarr category to /data/torrents/movies. You should do this. Also set the Default Save Path to /data/torrents. Set "Run external program on torrent completion" to true and enter this in the field: chmod -R 775 "%F/".
• You'll have to add indexers in Prowlarr by hand. Use Prowlarrs settings to connect it to the other -arr apps.

IMPORTANT IF USING NFS SHARES

• NFS shares' permissions are mapped by user IDs. If you want to access a file as a client, your user ID needs to match the user ID of the owner (or group) of that file on the NFS server. Note that if you are a group member (and not the owner), having matching group IDs won't be enough, there also needs to be a corresponding user on the NFS server. The easiest way to make sure the users and groups are set up on both sides correctly is to run setup.sh on both your NFS server and your client. On your server:
• Copy .env and setup.sh to your NFS server.
• You may have to adjust .env so that ROOT_DIR reflects where it will be stored on your server, which is most likely different from the mapped location on the client.
• Make sure that the .env file is not a .sample. Run setup.sh.
• Now follow all the same steps but on your client machine. Always double-check that .env is set correctly, especially ROOT_DIR. You don't have to do this on your server first but it's recommended. If you are running this script on the client make sure that you temporarily enable -no-root-squash on your NFS server, as the script needs superuser privileges to run and by default on NFS the root user is mapped to nowhere to prevent abuse.
