Docker Compose Setup for Media Management Tools

This repository contains a docker-compose.yaml configuration that sets up a complete media management stack including a VPN client (Gluetun), torrent client (qBittorrent), and several Servarr applications (Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, FlareSolverr), along with Seerr, SABnzbd, and Soon for automatic updates.

---

Overview

The stack securely manages and downloads media content while maintaining privacy through AirVPN (or any other supported VPN provider).
All services are orchestrated using Docker Compose for easy deployment and management.

Service	Description
Gluetun	VPN client routing traffic through your chosen VPN provider.
qBittorrent	Open-source torrent client for downloading media.
SABnzbd	Usenet downloader for binary newsgroups.
Sonarr	TV series management tool that automates episode downloads.
Radarr	Movie management tool for automatic film downloads.
FlareSolverr	Service that bypasses bot and Cloudflare protection.
Prowlarr	Indexer manager for Sonarr and Radarr.
Seerr	Web interface for managing requests to Sonarr/Radarr.
Soon	Automatically updates Docker containers.

---

Prerequisites

Make sure you have:

• A running Jellyfin instance
• Installed Docker and Docker Compose
• Access to an AirVPN (or other) account

Clone the repository (for example, into /opt/):

cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/itsebyte/automated-videostreaming
cd automated-videostreaming
mkdir seerr
chown -R 1000:1000 seerr/
docker compose pull

Configuration

Edit the .env file to include your VPN credentials:

# --- AirVPN ---
WG_PRIVATE_KEY=
WG_PSK=
WG_ADDRESS=10.5.79.2/32
WG_SERVER_COUNTRY=Netherlands

Note:
If you’re not using AirVPN, follow the Gluetun VPN Provider Setup Guide to configure your preferred provider.

---

Start the Stack

cd /opt/automated-videostreaming
docker compose up -d

Post-Setup Configuration

qBittorrent

• Open qBittorrent in your browser (use the port from your Compose file).

• Retrieve the default login credentials:

  docker logs qbittorrent

• Change them under:
  WebUI → Authentication → Username/Password

• Go to Settings → Advanced → Network Interface and set it to tun0 (the VPN interface).

• Save all changes.

---

Servarr Apps (Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, FlareSolverr)

• Complete the initial setup wizards.

• In Sonarr and Radarr, copy their API keys from
  Settings → General → Security → API Key

• In Prowlarr, go to
  Settings → Indexers → + Add Indexer → FlareSolverr

  Example configuration:

  • Tag (optional): proxy
  • Host: http://flaresolverr:8191/

Now you can add indexers protected by Cloudflare.

SABnzbd

• Navigate to SABnzbd in your browser using its configured port (default: http://<server-ip>:8080).

Initial Setup

On first launch, SABnzbd starts a setup wizard.
Choose your language and theme.
When prompted, create a username and password to secure the WebUI.

Example:

Username: admin
Password: yourstrongpassword

You can later change this under:
Config → General → Web Server → Enable access password

After completing the wizard, you can log in to the web interface via http://<server-ip>:8080 (or your mapped Docker port).

---

Retrieve the API Key

Go to Config → General and scroll down to the API Key section.

Note:

• API Key – used for apps like Sonarr/Radarr
• NZB Key – used for indexers

Usually, you’ll want the main API Key.

---

Add Your Usenet Provider

Go to Config → Servers → Add Server and enter your provider’s info:

Field	Example
Server name	Newshosting
Host	news.newshosting.com
Port	563
Username	yourusername
Password	yourpassword
Connections	10

Click Test Server → should display “Connection Successful”.
Then click Save Changes.

• Navigate to: Settings → Download Clients → + Add → SABnzbd
• Enter the following fields:

Field	Value
Host	http://sabnzbd:8080
API Key	(from SABnzbd → Config → General)

Integration: qBittorrent with Prowlarr, Sonarr and Radarr

Step 1: Connect qBittorrent to Prowlarr

1. Open Prowlarr in your browser (http://<server-ip>:9696).
2. Go to Settings → Download Clients → + Add → qBittorrent
3. Fill in the following fields:

Field	Example
Name	qBittorrent
Host	http://qbittorrent:8080
Username	(your qBittorrent username)
Password	(your qBittorrent password)
Category	tv, movies, music
Add Paused	false
Use SSL	false

4. Click Test → should display “Connection Successful”.
5. Click Save.

Tip: Use qbittorrent as hostname when running in Docker, since all containers share the same network.

---

Step 2: Connect qBittorrent to Sonarr

1. Open Sonarr (http://<server-ip>:8989).
2. Go to Settings → Download Clients → + Add → qBittorrent
3. Enter:

Field	Value
Host	http://qbittorrent:8080
Username	(your qBittorrent username)
Password	(your qBittorrent password)
Category	tv
Completed Download Handling	Enabled
Remove Completed	Optional

4. Click Test → “Connection Successful”.
5. Click Save.

Ensure that Sonarr and qBittorrent use the same shared volume path (e.g., /downloads).

Step 3: Connect qBittorrent to Radarr

1. Open Radarr (http://<server-ip>:7878).
2. Go to Settings → Download Clients → + Add → qBittorrent
3. Enter:

Field	Value
Host	http://qbittorrent:8080
Username	(your qBittorrent username)
Password	(your qBittorrent password)
Category	movies

4. Click Test, then Save.

Note: Once Prowlarr is connected to Sonarr and Radarr, it will automatically sync the indexers, and qBittorrent will serve as the unified download client.
