Warning

This is not a complete recipe - it's a component of the AutoPirate "uber-recipe", but has been split into its own page to reduce complexity.

Ombi is a useful addition to the autopiratestack. Features include:

  • Lets users request Movies and TV Shows (whether it being the entire series, an entire season, or even single episodes.)
  • Easily manage your requests User management system (supports plex.tv, Emby and local accounts)
  • A landing page that will give you the availability of your Plex/Emby/Jellyfin server and also add custom notification text to inform your users of downtime.
  • Allows your users to get custom notifications!
  • Will show if the request is already on plex or even if it's already monitored.
  • Automatically updates the status of requests when they are available on Plex/Emby/Jellyfin

Inclusion into AutoPirate

To include Ombi in your AutoPirate stack, include something like the following example in your autopirate.yml docker-compose stack definition file:

ombi:
  image: lscr.io/linuxserver/ombi:latest
  env_file : /var/data/config/autopirate/ombi.env
  volumes:
   - /var/data/autopirate/ombi:/config
  networks:
  - internal

ombi_proxy:
  image: a5huynh/oauth2_proxy
  env_file : /var/data/config/autopirate/ombi.env
  networks:
    - internal
    - traefik_public
  deploy:
    labels:
      # traefik
      - traefik.enable=true
      - traefik.docker.network=traefik_public

      # traefikv1
      - traefik.frontend.rule=Host:ombi.example.com
      - traefik.port=3579
      - traefik.frontend.auth.forward.address=http://traefik-forward-auth:4181
      - traefik.frontend.auth.forward.authResponseHeaders=X-Forwarded-User
      - traefik.frontend.auth.forward.trustForwardHeader=true        

      # traefikv2
      - "traefik.http.routers.ombi.rule=Host(`ombi.example.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.ombi.entrypoints=https"
      - "traefik.http.services.ombi.loadbalancer.server.port=3579"
      - "traefik.http.routers.ombi.middlewares=forward-auth"

Fast-track with premix! 🚀

I automatically and instantly share (with my sponsors) a private "premix" git repository, which includes necessary docker-compose and env files for all published recipes. This means that sponsors can launch any recipe with just a git pull and a docker stack deploy 👍.

🚀 Update: Premix now includes an ansible playbook, so that sponsors can deploy an entire stack + recipes, with a single ansible command! (more here)

Assemble more tools..

Continue through the list of tools below, adding whichever tools your want to use, and finishing with the end section:

Chef's notes 📓


  1. In many cases, tools will integrate with each other. I.e., Radarr needs to talk to SABnzbd and NZBHydra, Ombi needs to talk to Radarr, etc. Since each tool runs within the stack under its own name, just refer to each tool by name (i.e. "radarr"), and docker swarm will resolve the name to the appropriate container. You can identify the tool-specific port by looking at the docker-compose service definition.
