NZBGet

Usenet downloader.

Ports

Files

Docker Creation

You can copy your existing configuration to docker /config directory adjusting for paths.

The UID/GID should be set to a user/group that have access to your media. All media clients should run under the same user to run correctly.
Map your media directly to where it was before on the docker container to prevent needing to modify any libraries. This should be read-only.

Docker Compose

nzbget:
  image: linuxserver/nzbget:latest
  restart: unless-stopped
  environment:
    - PGID=1001
    - PUID=1001
    - TZ=America/Los_Angeles
  volumes:
    - /data/downloads:/data/downloads
    - /data/services/nzbget:/config
    - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro

Proxy will forward traffic to the container, so no ports need to be exposed.

Reverse Proxy Setup

Allows you to isolate your containers as well as wrap connections in SSL. See NGINX for more details. See Setup Base Proxy Control for basic proxy configuration.

See NZBGet reverse proxy reference.

Using Subdomains

0644 root root nginx/conf.d/reverse-proxy.conf

server {
  listen                  443 ssl http2;
  server_name             nzbget.{DOMAIN} nzbget;

  location / {
    proxy_pass            http://nzbget:6791;
    include               /etc/nginx/conf.d/proxy-control.conf;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
  }
}

Using Subpaths

0644 root root nginx/conf.d/reverse-proxy.conf

server {
  location /nzbget/ {
    proxy_pass            https://nzbget:6791/;
    include               /etc/nginx/conf.d/proxy-control.conf;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
  }
}
