10 seconds LinuxServer.io application installer

Introduction

The script getlsioapp.sh allows you to install a LinuxServer.io application in less than 10 seconds. It will automatically create the necessary volume directories on the host and automatically create the correct docker-compose configuration file. The docker-compose configuration file includes a description of all environment variables, volume- and port mappings.

In the example below the script is installed in /usr/local/bin. After that the Sonarr application is installed by running getlsioapp.sh sonarr.

The output of the script will guide you through the setup process:

• Review the the global settings in docker-env.cfg (you only need to do this once)
• Review the docker-compose.yaml file (usually no adjustments are needed)
• Start and stop instructions (using docker-compose)

Example output:

$ getlsioapp.sh netbootxyz
The following directories and files have been created:
   /volume1/docker/docker-env.cfg
   /volume1/docker/netbootxyz
   /volume1/docker/netbootxyz/docker-compose.yaml
   /volume1/docker/netbootxyz/assets
   /volume1/docker/netbootxyz/config
   /volume1/docker/netbootxyz/.env

Application setup:
1. Review the global settings in /volume1/docker/docker-env.cfg:
   #BASEDIR=/volume1/docker
   #PUID=1024
   #PGID=100
   #TZ=Europe/Amsterdam
2. Review /volume1/docker/netbootxyz/docker-compose.yaml
3. Create and start the application with:
   $ cd /volume1/docker/netbootxyz
   $ sudo docker-compose up -d
4. Stop and remove the application with:
   $ cd /volume1/docker/netbootxyz
   $ sudo docker-compose down
