<h1 id="installing-docker-what-it-is-how-it-works-and-why-we-use-it">Installing Docker — What It Is, How It Works, and Why We Use It</h1>
|
||
<p>Before installing Docker, it’s helpful to understand <strong>what Docker does</strong>, <strong>how it fits into our media management setup
|
||
</strong>, and <strong>why we run only the ARR stack inside Docker</strong> while keeping <strong>qBittorrent and Plex on the host system</strong>.</p>
|
||
<p>This page breaks it down simply and practically.</p>
|
||
<hr />
|
||
<h2 id="what-is-docker">🐳 What Is Docker?</h2>
|
||
<p>Docker is a <strong>containerization platform</strong>.</p>
|
||
<p>It allows you to run applications in isolated environments called <strong>containers</strong>. Each container:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Has its own filesystem</li>
|
||
<li>Includes its own dependencies and libraries</li>
|
||
<li>Runs separately from your main system</li>
|
||
<li>Can be recreated or removed easily</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>Think of a container as:</p>
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
<p><strong>A lightweight, specialized mini-computer dedicated to one app.</strong></p>
|
||
</blockquote>
|
||
<p>This approach makes apps more predictable, easier to manage, and simpler to update.</p>
|
||
<hr />
|
||
<h2 id="why-use-docker">🔧 Why Use Docker?</h2>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>Avoid dependency conflicts:</strong> Containers bundle the app’s needed libraries, leaving your base OS clean.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Easy updates:</strong> Updating Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr is as simple as running:</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<div class="language-text highlight"><span class="filename">Text Only</span><pre><span></span><code><a id="__codelineno-0-1" name="__codelineno-0-1" href="#__codelineno-0-1"></a>docker compose pull
|
||
<a id="__codelineno-0-2" name="__codelineno-0-2" href="#__codelineno-0-2"></a>docker compose up -d
|
||
</code></pre></div>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><strong>Easy backups:</strong> Configuration files are stored in small, manageable folders.</li>
|
||
<li><strong>Great for frequently changing apps:</strong> Apps like Prowlarr and Radarr update often, and Docker simplifies rollout.</li>
|
||
</ul>

<h2 id="why-not-put-everything-in-docker">🚫 Why Not Put Everything in Docker?</h2>
|
||
<p>While you could put all components into Docker, some behave poorly or have limitations when containerized, especially on
|
||
Raspberry Pi or home servers.</p>

|
||
<h2 id="why-qbittorrent-is-not-in-docker">❌ Why qBittorrent Is NOT in Docker</h2>
|
||
<p>qBittorrent requires:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Precise file permission control</li>
|
||
<li>Direct disk access</li>
|
||
<li>Stable, predictable file paths</li>
|
||
<li>High-speed I/O for torrent hashing</li>
|
||
<li>Ability to handle sudden restarts and disk changes</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>Within Docker, qBittorrent faces problems like:</p>

<p>Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, and Bazarr are:</p>
|

<ul>
|
||
<li>Lightweight and simple</li>
|
||
<li>Use stable, clean directory structures</li>
|
||
<li>Store config in small folders</li>
|
||
<li>Benefit from frequent updates</li>
|
||
<li>Don’t require hardware passes</li>
|
||
<li>Designed to run smoothly in containers</li>
|

</ul>
|
||
<h3 id="benefits">Benefits:</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Consistent file paths as long as <code>/mnt/omnissiah-vault</code> is mounted</li>
|
||
<li>Easy migration with just config copy and docker-compose run</li>
|
||
<li>Isolation protects other apps if something breaks</li>
