We will not offer support for this image and it will not be updated. Jackett has a bot publishing nightly stable releases Please switch to latest tag for stable # [linuxserver/jackett](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-jackett) [](https://scarf.sh/gateway/linuxserver-ci/docker/linuxserver%2Fjackett) [](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-jackett) [](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-jackett/releases) [](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-jackett/packages) [](https://gitlab.com/linuxserver.io/docker-jackett/container_registry) [](https://quay.io/repository/linuxserver.io/jackett) [](https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/jackett) [](https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/jackett) [](https://ci.linuxserver.io/job/Docker-Pipeline-Builders/job/docker-jackett/job/development/) [](https://ci-tests.linuxserver.io/linuxserver/jackett/latest/index.html) [Jackett](https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett) works as a proxy server: it translates queries from apps (Sonarr, SickRage, CouchPotato, Mylar, etc) into tracker-site-specific http queries, parses the html response, then sends results back to the requesting software. This allows for getting recent uploads (like RSS) and performing searches. Jackett is a single repository of maintained indexer scraping & translation logic - removing the burden from other apps. [](https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett) ## Supported Architectures We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://distribution.github.io/distribution/spec/manifest-v2-2/#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/). Simply pulling `lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:development` 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: | Architecture | Available | Tag | | :----: | :----: | ---- | | x86-64 | ✅ | amd64-\ | | arm64 | ✅ | arm64v8-\ | | armhf | ❌ | | ## Application Setup The web interface is at `:9117` , configure various trackers and connections to other apps there. More info at [Jackett](https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett). ## Usage To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli. ### docker-compose (recommended, [click here for more info](https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/docker-compose)) ```yaml --- services: jackett: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:development container_name: jackett environment: - PUID=1000 - PGID=1000 - TZ=Etc/UTC - AUTO_UPDATE=true #optional - RUN_OPTS= #optional volumes: - /path/to/data:/config - /path/to/blackhole:/downloads ports: - 9117:9117 restart: unless-stopped ``` ### docker cli ([click here for more info](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/)) ```bash docker run -d \ --name=jackett \ -e PUID=1000 \ -e PGID=1000 \ -e TZ=Etc/UTC \ -e AUTO_UPDATE=true `#optional` \ -e RUN_OPTS= `#optional` \ -p 9117:9117 \ -v /path/to/data:/config \ -v /path/to/blackhole:/downloads \ --restart unless-stopped \ lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:development ``` ## Parameters Containers are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `:` 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. | Parameter | Function | | :----: | --- | | `-p 9117` | WebUI | | `-e PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation | | `-e PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation | | `-e TZ=Etc/UTC` | specify a timezone to use, see this [list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List). | | `-e AUTO_UPDATE=true` | Allow Jackett to update inside of the container (currently recommended by Jackett and enabled by default) | | `-e RUN_OPTS=` | Optionally specify additional arguments to be passed. | | `-v /config` | Where Jackett should store its config file. | | `-v /downloads` | Path to torrent blackhole. | ## Environment variables from files (Docker secrets) You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend `FILE__`. As an example: ```bash -e FILE__MYVAR=/run/secrets/mysecretvariable ``` Will set the environment variable `MYVAR` based on the contents of the `/run/secrets/mysecretvariable` 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](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask) 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 your_user` as below: ```bash id your_user ``` Example output: ```text uid=1000(your_user) gid=1000(your_user) groups=1000(your_user) ``` ## Docker Mods [](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=jackett "view available mods for this container.") [](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=universal "view available universal mods.") We publish various [Docker Mods](https://github.com/linuxserver/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. ## Support Info * Shell access whilst the container is running: ```bash docker exec -it jackett /bin/bash ``` * To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: ```bash docker logs -f jackett ``` * Container version number: ```bash docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' jackett ``` * Image version number: ```bash docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:development ``` ## Updating Info Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (noted in the relevant readme.md), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the [Application Setup](#application-setup) section above to see if it is recommended for the image. Below are the instructions for updating containers: ### Via Docker Compose * Update images: * All images: ```bash docker-compose pull ``` * Single image: ```bash docker-compose pull jackett ``` * Update containers: * All containers: ```bash docker-compose up -d ``` * Single container: ```bash docker-compose up -d jackett ``` * You can also remove the old dangling images: ```bash docker image prune ``` ### Via Docker Run * Update the image: ```bash docker pull lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:development ``` * Stop the running container: ```bash docker stop jackett ``` * Delete the container: ```bash docker rm jackett ``` * Recreate a new container with the same docker run parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your `/config` folder and settings will be preserved) * You can also remove the old dangling images: ```bash docker image prune ``` ### Image Update Notifications - Diun (Docker Image Update Notifier) **tip**: We recommend [Diun](https://crazymax.dev/diun/) for update notifications. Other tools that automatically update containers unattended are not recommended or supported. ## Building locally If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic: ```bash git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-jackett.git cd docker-jackett docker build \ --no-cache \ --pull \ -t lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:development . ``` The ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware using `multiarch/qemu-user-static` ```bash docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static:register --reset ``` Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with `-f Dockerfile.aarch64`. ## Versions * **11.03.24:** - Deprecate development tag. * **11.07.23:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.18. * **01.07.23:** - Deprecate armhf.
