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.

Radarr is a tool for finding, downloading and managing movies. Features include:

  • Adding new movies with lots of information, such as trailers, ratings, etc.
  • Can watch for better quality of the movies you have and do an automatic upgrade. eg. from DVD to Blu-Ray
  • Automatic failed download handling will try another release if one fails
  • Manual search so you can pick any release or to see why a release was not downloaded automatically
  • Full integration with SABnzbd and NZBGet
  • Automatically searching for releases as well as RSS Sync
  • Automatically importing downloaded movies
  • Recognizing Special Editions, Director's Cut, etc.
  • Identifying releases with hardcoded subs
  • Importing movies from various online sources, such as IMDb Watchlists (A complete list can be found here)
  • Full integration with Kodi, Plex (notification, library update)
  • And a beautiful UI
  • Importing Metadata such as trailers or subtitles

Inclusion into AutoPirate

To include Radarr in your AutoPirate stack, include something like the following example in your autopirate.yml docker-compose v3 stack definition file:

radarr:
  image: lscr.io/linuxserver/radarr:latest
  env_file : /var/data/config/autopirate/radarr.env
  volumes:
   - /var/data/autopirate/radarr:/config
   - /var/data/media:/media
  networks:
  - internal
  deploy:
    labels:
      # traefik
      - traefik.enable=true
      - traefik.docker.network=traefik_public

      # traefikv1
      - traefik.frontend.rule=Host:radarr.example.com
      - traefik.port=7878
      - 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.radarr.rule=Host(`radarr.example.com`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.radarr.entrypoints=https"
      - "traefik.http.services.radarr.loadbalancer.server.port=7878"
      - "traefik.http.routers.radarr.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. ↩
