Lidarr in Docker optimized for Unraid
Lidarr is a music collection manager for Usenet and BitTorrent users. It can monitor multiple RSS feeds for new tracks from your favorite artists and will grab, sort and rename them.
Update: The container will check on every start/restart if there is a newer version available (you can also choose between stabel and nightly version - keep in mind that switching from a stable to a nightly version and vice versa will/can break the container).
Manual Version: You can also set a version manually by typing in the version number that you want to use for example: '0.7.0.1347' (without quotes) - you can also change it to 'latest' or 'nightly' like described above (works only for stable builds - don't forget to disable updates in the WebGUI if you are using a specific version).
ATTENTION: Don't change the port in the Lidarr config itself.
Migration: If you are migrating from another Container please be sure to deltete the files/folders 'logs' and 'config.xml', don't forget to change the root folder for your music and select 'No, I'll Move the Files Myself'!
WARNING: The main configuration of the paths has a performance and disk usage impact: slow, I/O intensive moves and wasted disk space. For a detailed guide to change that see https://trash-guides.info/hardlinks/#unraid .
