Media Server Setup

This setup uses docker containers run by systemd services to automatically start up Jellyfin media server and transmission torrnet client with web interface.
This is a setup for a RPi running Raspbian (Debian), but will work on any other platform.

Requirements

Required for this setup is docker and docker-compose. Also, the system must use systemd services manager (default in Ubuntu and Debian).

Setting up

1. Change the name of the folder user under home to the real user name
2. Edit home//transmission/docker-compose.yml: Set PUID and PGUID to the real user and group IDs. Can be retreived by uid -u and uid -g respectively Set USER and PASS. These are the webl ogin credentials to your transmission server. Set the source folder for /download volume: Replace /media/data with your download destination
3. Edit home//jellyfin/docker-compose.yml: Set PUID and PGUID Set the source folder for /media volume
4. Edit the services file under etc/systemd/system/: Set the correct user folder
5. Copy the files to place:

   sudo cp -r etc/ /
   cp -r home/<user> /home/<user>/
   

6. Reload systemd daemon and enable services:

   sudo systemctl daemon-reload
   sudo systemctl enable transmission
   sudo systemctl enable jellyfin
   

7. Start services:

   sudo systemctl start transmission
   sudo systemctl start jellyfin
