System Requirements
- Docker Engine 20.10+
- Docker Compose V2
- Sufficient storage for media and databases
- Intel GPU for Jellyfin hardware transcoding (optional)
Installation
- Clone/Download this repository
- Create required directories
# See directory_structure.sh for automated setup chmod +x directory_structure.sh ./directory_structure.sh - Create .env file
cp .env.example .env # Edit .env with your values nano .env - Set correct permissions
sudo chown -R $PUID:$PGID /docker sudo chown -R $PUID:$PGID /mnt/Nas-Storage/data - Start services
docker compose up -d
Service Access

Maintenance
Backup Strategy
Critical Data to Backup:
/docker/- All service configurations- Database volumes (see docker-compose.yaml)
.envfile (store securely, contains secrets)
Optional (can be regenerated):
- Media files on NAS
- Immich thumbnails (can be regenerated)
Updates
Watchtower automatically updates containers daily. To manually update:
docker compose pull
docker compose up -d
Logs
View logs for any service:
docker compose logs -f [service_name]
Resource Limits
- Portainer: 512MB RAM limit
- Log rotation: 10MB max, 3 files
Hardware Acceleration
Jellyfin is configured for Intel GPU transcoding:
- Device:
/dev/dri/renderD128 - Group:
104(render group)
Verify GPU access:
ls -l /dev/dri/renderD128
Security Considerations
- Secrets Management: Store
.envsecurely, never commit to version control - Network Segmentation: Database network is internal-only
- Container Security:
no-new-privileges:trueon supported services - Reverse Proxy: Use NPM for SSL termination and authentication
- Updates: Watchtower keeps containers updated
Troubleshooting
Service won't start
docker compose logs [service_name]
docker compose restart [service_name]
Database connection issues
# Check database is healthy
docker compose ps
# Verify network connectivity
docker compose exec [service] ping [db_service]
Permission errors
# Verify ownership
ls -la /docker/[service]/
# Fix if needed
sudo chown -R $PUID:$PGID /docker/[service]/
Storage full
# Check Docker disk usage
docker system df
# Clean up unused resources
docker system prune -a
