AriaNg

Description

AriaNg is a modern web frontend making aria2 easier to use. AriaNg is written in pure html & javascript, thus it does not need any compilers or runtime environment. You can just put AriaNg in your web server and open it in your browser. AriaNg uses responsive layout, and supports any desktop or mobile devices.

Access AriaNg Web UI

http://<host ip>:8127

Aria2 RPC Credentials

AriaNg has no login of its own, access to aria2 is controlled by the JSON-RPC secret token. If ARIA2_RPC_SECRET is not set and no secret file exists then a 32 character secret is generated on start and stored in /config/aria2/secrets/rpc-secret, the same secret is reused on every restart.

To connect, open AriaNg, go to Settings -> RPC, set the host to your unRAID host IP, the port to 6800 and paste the secret into Secret token.

A rpc-secret already set in /config/aria2/configs/aria2.conf is used as-is and no secret file is generated.

Example

docker run -d \
    --name=ariang \
    -p 8127:8127 \
    -p 6800:6800 \
    -v /apps/docker/ariang/config:/config \
    -v /apps/docker/ariang/data:/data \
    -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
    -e TZ=Etc/UTC \
    -e ENABLE_STARTUP_SCRIPTS=no \
    -e STARTUP_SCRIPTS_MODE=wait \
    -e UMASK=000 \
    -e PUID=99 \
    -e PGID=100 \
    binhex/arch-ariang

Notes

ARIA2_RPC_SECRET sets the aria2 JSON-RPC secret token, it takes precedence over a secret stored in /config/aria2/secrets/rpc-secret and any rpc-secret set in /config/aria2/configs/aria2.conf.

/data is available as a download location, aria2 writes to /config/aria2/downloads by default, change the dir option in /config/aria2/configs/aria2.conf to use /data instead.

ENABLE_STARTUP_SCRIPTS when set to yes (default no) will allow a user to install additional packages from the official Arch Repository or the Arch User Repository (AUR) via scripts located in the folder /config/ariang/scripts/.

STARTUP_SCRIPTS_MODE controls how those scripts are executed, set to wait (default) to run each script in turn and wait for it to complete before the next script runs, or parallel to run all scripts at the same time.

User ID (PUID) and Group ID (PGID) can be found by issuing the following command for the user you want to run the container as:-

id <username>
