5. Install Docker and a few containers

Do some post-install stuff: https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/linux-postinstall/

sudo docker run -d --name portainer --restart=always -p 9000:9000 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock portainer/portainer

Get the containers and some instructions from https://gitlab.com/hotio/suitarr/blob/master/README.md and https://www.smarthomebeginner.com/install-sonarr-using-docker/

sudo docker run -d --name sonarr --restart=always -p 8989:8989 -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 -e UMASK=022 -e VERSION=image -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v /home/docker/sonarr/config:/config -v /mnt/my_passport/TV\ Series:/tv -v /home/docker/sonarr/downloads:/downloads hotio/suitarr:sonarr

Important: Sonarr needs adjustments in Settings -> Download Client -> Remote Path Mappings

sudo docker run -d --name jackett --restart=always -p 9117:9117 -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 -e UMASK=022 -e VERSION=image -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v /home/docker/jackett/config:/config hotio/suitarr:jackett
