linuxserver/sabnzbd

SABnzbd makes Usenet as simple and streamlined as possible by automating everything we can. All you have to do is add an .nzb. SABnzbd takes over from there, where it will be automatically downloaded, verified, repaired, extracted and filed away with zero human interaction. This container includes par2 multicore. http://sabnzbd.org/

Usage

docker create --name=sabnzbd \
-v <path to data>:/config \
-v <path to downloads>:/downloads \
-v <path to incomplete downloads>:/incomplete-downloads \
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
-e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid> \
-p 8080:8080 -p 9090:9090 linuxserver/sabnzbd

Parameters

• -p 8080 - http port for the webui
• -p 9090 - https port for the webui see note below
• -v /config - local path for sabnzbd config files
• -v /downloads local path for finished downloads
• -v /incomplete-downloads local path for incomplete-downloads - optional
• -v /etc/localhost for timesync - optional
• -e PGID for GroupID - see below for explanation
• -e PUID for UserID - see below for explanation

User / Group Identifiers

Sometimes when using data volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID. Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will "just work" ™.

In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001. To find yours use id user as below:

  $ id <dockeruser>
    uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)

Setting up the application

Initial setup is done from the http port. Https access for sabnzbd needs to be enabled in either the intial setup wizard or in the configure settings of the webui, be sure to use 9090 as port for https. See here for info on some of the switch settings for sabnzbd http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-switches

Updates

• Shell access whilst the container is running: docker exec -it sabnzbd /bin/bash
• Upgrade to the latest version: docker restart sabnzbd
• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: docker logs -f sabnzbd
