Ezarr is a project built to make it EZ to deploy a Servarr mediacenter on an Ubuntu server. The badge above means that the shell script and docker-compose file in this repository at least don't crash. It doesn't necessarily mean it will run well on your system ;) It features:

• Sonarr is an application to manage TV shows. It is capable of keeping track of what you'd like to watch, at what quality, in which language and more, and can find a place to download this if connected to Prowlarr and qBittorrent. It can also reorganize the media you already own in order to create a more uniformly formatted collection.
• Radarr is like Sonarr, but for movies.
• Lidarr is like Sonarr, but for music.
• Readarr is like Sonarr, but for books.
• Mylar3 is like Sonarr, but for comic books. This one is a bit tricky to set up, so do so at your own risk. In order to connect this to your Prowlarr container, the process within Prowlarr is the same as for the other containers (add app). You'll have to add an API key within Mylar3, yourself.
• Audiobookshelf is a self-hosted audiobook and podcast server.
• Prowlarr can keep track of indexers, which are services that keep track of Torrent or UseNet links. One can search an indexer for certain content and find a where to download this. Note: when adding an indexer, please do not set the "seed ratio" to less than 1. Less than 1 means that you upload less than you download. Not only is this unfriendly towards your fellow users, but it can also get you banned from certain indexers.
• Jackett is an alternative to Prowlarr.
• qBittorrent can download torrents and provides a bunch more features for management.
• PleX is a mediaserver. Using this, you get access to a Netflix-like interface across many devices like your laptop or computer, your phone, your TV and more. For some features, you need a PleX pass.
• Tautulli is a monitoring application for PleX which can keep track of what has been watched, who watched it, when and where they watched it, and how it was watched.
• Jellyfin is an alternative for PleX. Which you'd like to use is a matter of preference, and you could even use both, although this is probably a waste of resources.
• Overseerr is a show and movie request management and media discovery tool.

To make things easier, a CLI has been developed. First, clone the repository in a directory of your choosing. You can run it by entering python main.py and the CLI will guide you through the process. Please take a look at important notes before you continue.

1. To get started, clone the repository in a directory of your choosing. Note: this will be where your installation and media will be as well, so think about this a bit.
2. Copy .env.sample to a real .env by running $ cp .env.sample .env.
3. Set the environment variables to your liking. Note that ROOT_DIR should be the directory you have cloned this in.
4. Run setup.sh as superuser. This will set up your users, a system of directories, ensure permissions are set correctly and sets some more environment variables for docker compose.
5. Take a look at the docker-compose.yml file. If there are services you would like to ignore (for example, running PleX and Jellyfin at the same time is a bit unusual), you can comment them out by placing # in front of the lines. This ensures they are ignored by Docker compose.
6. Run docker compose up.

That's it! Your containers are now up and you can continue to set up the settings in them. Please take a look at important notes before you continue.

• When linking one service to another, remember to use the container name instead of localhost.
• Please set the settings of the -arr containers as soon as possible to the following (use advanced):
  • Media management:
    • Use hardlinks instead of Copy: true
    • Root folder: /data/media/ and then tv, movies or music depending on service
  • Make sure to set a username and password for all servarr services and qBittorrent!
• In qBittorrent, after connecting it to the -arr services, you can indicate it should move torrents in certain categories to certain directories, like torrents in the radarr category to /data/torrents/movies. You should do this. Also set the Default Save Path to /data/torrents. Set "Run external program on torrent completion" to true and enter this in the field: chmod -R 775 "%F/".
• You'll have to add indexers in Prowlarr by hand. Use Prowlarrs settings to connect it to the other -arr apps.

Some settings, particularly for the Servarr suite, are set in databases. While it might be possible to interact with this database after creation, I'd rather not touch these. It's not that difficult to set them yourself, and quite difficult to do it automatically. For other containers, configuration files are automatically generated, so these are more easily edited, but I currently don't believe this is worth the effort.

On top of the above, connecting the containers above would mean setting a password and creating an API key for all of them. This would lead to everyone using Ezarr having the same API key and user/ password combination. Personally, I'd rather trust users to figure this out on their own rather than trusting them to change these passwords and keys.
