So, if you don't have Portainer installed already, let's install the community edition.

Porainer is a GUI for docker that runs in Docker, and helps you manager other Docker containers running on your system. I really like this product, as it gives a pretty UI to the docker tools which are Cli (Command Line Interface) only - at least in Linux). If you actually want to follow along in this tutorial, you'll want to install Portainer / Porainter-CE (Community Edition). Use these tools as best you can understanding the legalities of your country, and be safe. This does not limit the library to illegally obtained material, but any library of media you own. Additionally, Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Bazarr, and Jackett are tools used to organize media libraries. Torrents are how I get almost all of the Linux distros I use. By the same token, the tools in this video and article, can absolutely be used for completely legal purposes. The tools discussed in this video and article can be used for purposes considered illegal in most countries of the world. I hope you'll enjoy this episode, I know I had a blast working with IBRACORP on this, and look forward to our next collaboration where I can hopefully walk him through something cool as well!

And, of course, we do touch on the topic of legality with the use of these tools.

If you have qeustions, of course reach out to us.

Configuring each of those applications through their UI (well not Radarr, but it's config and setup is extremely similar to Sonarr, so it shouldn't be an issue for you to do it.

Installing Radarr, Sonarrr, Jackett, and qBitTorrent.

Setting up our host machine storage so that all of the applications can access the media and files in an all-in-one location.Setting up a Docker network for our installations to communicate on.

The best part is that we worked through how to get things going in Portainer, so you can easily follow along. I used Portainer for this setup, as it was a bit of an homage, and mirror of a video he made several weeks earlier on the same subject using Unraid. Today, he walked me through the setup of four incredible pieces of open source, self hosted software, that you can run in Docker. If you haven't checked out his channel yet, you should seriously go over and subscribe, and check out all of his videos. His UI of choice for hosting his self hosted setup is Unraid, which has a magificent user interface. He focuses on Open Source software, and uses Docker to set it up and get it installed and running. The channel is superb, and really fits well with the Awesome Open Source channel. I was fortunate enough to have my good from from the IBRACORP YouTube channel join me, and walk me through setting up these super useful tools.
