florider89/rtorrent-flood

Be aware this image was made for my own use.

Main features

• Based on Alpine Linux.
• rTorrent and libtorrent are compiled from source.
• Provides by default a solid configuration.
• Flood, a modern web UI for rTorrent with a Node.js backend and React frontend (jesec fork).
• Automatically unpack RAR releases (so Sonarr can deal with them).

Build-time variables

• RTORRENT_VER : rtorrent version
• LIBTORRENT_VER : libtorrent version
• MEDIAINFO_VER : libmediainfo version
• BUILD_CORES : number of cores used during build

Environment variables

• UID : user id (default : 991)
• GID : group id (defaut : 991)
• FLOOD_SECRET : flood secret key (defaut : mysupersecretkey) (CHANGE IT)
• WEBROOT : context path (base_URI) (default : /)
• RTORRENT_SOCK : true or false (default : true, if false rtorrent listens on 0.0.0.0:5000)
• PKG_CONFIG_PATH : /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig (don't touch)
• DISABLE_AUTH : disables Flood built-in authentication system (default : false)

Note

• Run this container with tty mode enabled. In your docker-compose.yml, add tty: true. If you don't do this, rtorrent will use 100% of CPU.
• Connect Flood UI to rTorrent through Unix socket. Enter /tmp/rtorrent.sock as rTorrent Socket. If SCGI is used, configure accordingly.

Ports

• 49184 (bind it).
• 3000 (reverse proxy!)

Advanced - Running using docker-compose

You can find a sample docker-compose.yml file that configures both Flood + rTorrent but also Sonarr. This configuration supports hardlinks between Sonarr and Flood / rTorrent. Also make sure to mount the nginx.conf file, a template of which can be found in the repository as well.

• docker-compose.yml
• nginx.conf
