digrouz/jackett repository overview

⁠docker-jackett

Installs Jackett into a Linux Container

⁠Tag

Several tag are available:

• latest: see alpine-core
• alpine: see alpine-core
• alpine-core: Dockerfile_alpine-core⁠

⁠Description

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.

Developer note: The software implements the Torznab (with nZEDb category numbering) and TorrentPotato APIs.
