idrum4316/olaris repository overview

⁠Olaris (Unofficial)

Keep in mind that Olaris is pre-release software. Use this image at your own risk.

This is an unofficial image for Olaris Media Server⁠. The main reason I created this repository was to create slimmed down, tagged releases. Since then, the official image⁠ has added tagged releases, but I plan to continue maintaining this repository for the foreseeable future.

⁠Running

The configuration directory can be empty when you first run the image. Olaris will create some files there, and using a volume allows you to persist that data during upgrades.

docker run -d \
    -v /path/to/media:/var/media \
    -v /path/to/config:/root/.config \
    -p 8080:8080 \
    idrum4316/olaris:tag

⁠Cache/Transcode Volume

The cache location in the container is /cache. This is where temporary transcode files are stored, so it can get fairly large depending on what your server is doing. It may be helpful to use a volume for the cache directory if you don't have enough free space to store those files in the container.

docker run -d \
    -v /path/to/media:/var/media \
    -v /path/to/config:/root/.config \
    -p 8080:8080 \
    -v /path/to/cache:/cache \
    idrum4316/olaris:tag

⁠Rclone (Added in 0.2.0)

I've included the rclone binary in the image, so it's available if you want to set it up. The config file is going to be /root/.config/rclone/rclone.conf inside of the container, so if you have an existing rclone configuration file, you can go ahead and put it in </path/to/config>/rclone/rclone.conf using the example paths from the commands above.

If you don't have an existing rclone configuration, you can start the image and then run this command to launch the configuration wizard.

docker exec -it <my-container-name> rclone config

The rclone command is available in the path, so if you're running in something like Unraid, you can open a console in your container and use the rclone command from there.
