How to Install Ombi on Alpine Linux Latest

Ombi is a web application that allows users to request movies, TV shows, and other content to be added to their Plex or Emby media server. In this tutorial, we will be installing Ombi on Alpine Linux Latest using Docker.

Prerequisites

• A machine running Alpine Linux Latest installed.
• Docker installed and running on the machine.
• Basic knowledge of Docker containers.

Step 1: Create a Docker Compose file

Create a docker-compose.yml file in a new directory:

version: '3.7'
services:
  ombi:
    image: linuxserver/ombi:latest
    container_name: ombi
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - /path/to/config:/config
      - /path/to/media:/media
    ports:
      - 5000:3579

Here, we are using the linuxserver/ombi Docker image to create a container with the name "ombi". We are also mapping the required ports and volumes for the application to function properly.

Step 2: Start the Docker container

In the same directory as the docker-compose.yml file, start the Docker container using the following command:

docker-compose up -d

This will start the container in detached mode, allowing it to run in the background without blocking your terminal.

Step 3: Access Ombi web interface

Open your favorite web browser and navigate to http://<host_ip>:5000. Here, replace <host_ip> with the IP address of the machine running the Docker container. You should see the Ombi login page.

Step 4: Configure Ombi

Once you have logged in to the Ombi web interface, you will need to configure it to your liking. This includes settings such as media server details, user permissions, and more.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Ombi on Alpine Linux Latest using Docker. You can now start using Ombi to request media content to be added to your Plex or Emby media server.
