Quick Start

Create a docker-compose.yml:

services:
  aurral:
    image: ghcr.io/lklynet/aurral:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "3001:3001"
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
    volumes:
      - ${MEDIA_ROOT:-/srv/media}:/data
      - ./config:/config

Set MEDIA_ROOT to the same host media path that Lidarr already mounts. Keep /data as the container path and use that same mapping for your download clients and Navidrome or Plex. Then set Aurral's Downloads Folder to a container path such as /data/downloads/aurral. See Filesystem and mounts.

docker compose up -d

Open http://localhost:3001, create your admin account, and connect Lidarr.
