Watcher Is a Python-based Film finder, that is currently in active development.

docker create \ 
  --name=watcher \
  -v <path to data>:/config \
  -v <path to downloads folder>:/downloads \
  -v <path to movies>:/movies \
  -e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid>  \
  -p 9090:9090 \
  uirel/watcher

The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side. For example with a port -p external:internal - what this shows is the port mapping from internal to external of the container. So -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 http://192.168.x.x:8080 would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 80.

• -p 9090 - Port for webui
• -v /config Containes plexpy config and database
• -e PGID for GroupID - see below for explanation
• -e PUID for UserID - see below for explanation

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)

Access the webui at <your-ip>:9090, for more information check out Watcher..

• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime docker logs -f watcher.

• 29.12.16: Inital Release.

• Linuxserver.io for dockerfile form, base image, readme outline
