    image: wiserain/flexget
    container_name: <container name>
    environment:
      - FG_WEBUI_PASSWD=<desired password>
      - FG_LOG_LEVEL=info
      - FG_LOG_FILE=flexget.log
      - PUID=<UID for user>

    volumes:

    restart: on-failure:5 

Most importantly, secure webui using FG_WEBUI_PASSWD.

If there are additional packages you may want to install, create bash script with any name under /config/custom-cont-init.d, for example,

#!/usr/bin/with-contenv bash
apk add -q --no-cache <alpine pkgs>
pip install <python pkgs>

Then, it will run every container start.

You can install custom plugins by FG_PLUGINS="{plugin_name_1} {plugin_name_2}" whose value is a space-separated list of plugin names. Currently available ones are

• write_magnet: Mostly same as built-in convert_magnet but expect better performance and improved error handling, which is compatible with a version of libtorrent containerized in this image.
