Create and configure arr applications stack

en es

We will prepare the anonymous VPN configuration file that qBittorrent requires; we will configure the arr apps Docker stack; and we will bring the stack up through Portainer. The stack consists of the following containers:

  • qBittorrent: Download manager through the bittorrent protocol.
  • Sonarr: Series manager.
  • Radarr: Movie manager.
  • Prowlarr: Search engine manager.
  • Bazarr: Subtitle manager.
  • Flaresolverr: CAPTCHA solver.
  • Jellyfin: Media service.
  • Jellyseerr: Media request manager and catalog service.

Create stack

  1. Run: ./scripts/create_arr_folders.sh to generate the container directories on the SSD.
  2. Copy the anonymous VPN configuration file for bittorrent: scp user@host:/path/to/vpn.conf /Apps/qbittorrent/wireguard/tun0.conf. Change {user@host:/path/to/vpn.conf} to the address of the file on the computer that contains the file. This file must be provided by your VPN provider if you select WireGuard as the protocol. You can also use a USB stick to transfer the configuration file. If your provider requires using OpenVPN you will have to change the container configuration. For more information read the container's guide: https://github.com/Trigus42/alpine-qbittorrentvpn.
  3. Edit the stack file: nano ./files/arr-stack.yml.
  4. Replace TZ=America/New_York with your system time zone. You can use this list as a reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones.
  5. Replace the XXX with the uid and gid of the user mediacenter. You can use id mediacenter to get the uid and gid.
  6. If a GPU is not going to be used, delete the runtime and deploy sections of the jellyfin container.
  7. If you are going to use OpenVPN for bittorrent, update the qbittorrent container according to the official guide.
  8. If you are not going to expose the server to the internet, remove the nginx network.
  9. Copy all contents of the file to the clipboard. Save and exit with Ctrl + X, Y, Enter.
  10. Add stack in Portainer from the browser.
    1. Access Portainer through https://192.168.1.253:9443. If you get a security alert, you can accept the risk since Portainer uses a self-signed SSL certificate.
    2. Click "Get Started" and then select "local."
    3. Select "Stacks" and create a new stack.
    4. Name it "arr" and paste the content of the docker-compose.yml that you copied to the clipboard and create the stack. From now on, modifications to the stack must be made through Portainer and not in the file.

Configure qBittorrent

  1. Access qBittorrent through http://192.168.1.253:10095.
  2. Use admin and adminadmin as username and password.
  3. Click the Options button.
  4. Configure Downloads tab. Make the following changes:
    1. "Default Torrent Management Mode" : "Automatic".
    2. "Default Save Path": "/MediaCenter/torrents".
    3. Optional: If you want to save the .torrent files in case you need to download something again, you can enable "Copy .torrent files for finished downloads to" and assign: "/MediaCenter/torrents/backup".
  5. Configure Connection tab. Make the following changes:
    1. Disable "Use UPnP / NAT-PMP port forwarding from my router".
    2. If you like, you can adjust the connection limits.
  6. Configure Speed tab. Make the following changes:
    1. In the "Alternative Rate Limits" > "Upload" section: Set it to one third of your provider's upload speed.
    2. In the "Alternative Rate Limits" > "Download" section: Set it to one third of your provider's download speed.
    3. Enable "Schedule the use of alternative rate limits".
    4. Choose the time when the Internet is used at home for other things. For example: 08:00 - 01:00 every day.
  7. Configure BitTorrent tab. Make the following changes:
    1. Disable Enable Local Peer Discovery to find more peers since there is nothing local in the container.
    2. If you like to stop seeding after a goal, you can enable and adjust the limits here. For example "When the rate reaches 1".
  8. Configure Web UI tab. Make the following changes:
    1. Change the password to a more secure one. It is again recommended to use Bitwarden for the same.
    2. Enable "Bypass authentication for clients on localhost".
    3. Enable "Bypass authentication for clients in whitelisted IP subnets".
    4. Add 172.21.0.0/24 to the list below. This will allow containers in Docker's arr network to be accessed without a password.
  9. Configure Advanced tab. Make the following changes:
    1. Ensure that the "Network Interface" is tun0. If not it means you are not using your VPN and the traffic will not be anonymous.
    2. Enable "Reannounce to all trackers when IP or port changed".
