​Lidarr is a music collection manager for Usenet and BitTorrent users. It can monitor multiple RSS feeds for new tracks from your favorite artists and will grab, sort and rename them. It can also be configured to automatically upgrade the quality of files already downloaded when a better quality format becomes available.

Supported Architectures

Our images support multiple architectures such as x86-64, arm64 and armhf. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.

Simply pulling ghcr.io/linuxserver/lidarr should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

Version Tags

This image provides various versions that are available via tags. latest tag usually provides the latest stable version. Others are considered under development and caution must be exercised when using them.

Usage

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.

docker-compose (recommended)

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  lidarr:
    image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/lidarr
    container_name: lidarr
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - /path/to/appdata/config:/config
      - /path/to/music:/music
      - /path/to/downloads:/downloads
    ports:
      - 8686:8686
    restart: unless-stopped

docker cli

docker run -d \
  --name=lidarr \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -p 8686:8686 \
  -v /path/to/appdata/config:/config \
  -v /path/to/music:/music \
  -v /path/to/downloads:/downloads \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  ghcr.io/linuxserver/lidarr

Parameters

Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

Ports (-p)

Environment Variables (-e)

Volume Mappings (-v)

Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.

As an example:

-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword

Will set the environment variable PASSWORD based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretpassword file.

Umask for running applications

For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022 setting. Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.

User / Group Identifiers

When using 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 any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:

  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)

Application Setup

Access the webui at <your-ip>:8686, for more information check out Lidarr.

Special Note: Following our current folder structure will result in an inability to hardlink from your downloads to your Music folder because they are on seperate volumes. To support hardlinking, simply ensure that the Music and downloads data are on a single volume. For example, if you have /mnt/storage/Music and /mnt/storage/downloads/completed/Music, you would want something like /mnt/storage:/media for your volume. Then you can hardlink from /media/downloads/completed to /media/Music.

Another item to keep in mind, is that within lidarr itself, you should then map your download client folder to your lidarr folder: Settings -> Download Client -> advanced -> remote path mappings. I input the host of my download client (matches the download client defined) remote path is /downloads/Music (relative to the internal container path) and local path is /media/downloads/completed/Music, assuming you have folders to seperate your downloaded data types.

Docker Mods

​​​ ​​​

We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
