prowlarr v0.1.0

Media

Prowlarr — an indexer manager for the *arr media stack: configure your torrent and Usenet indexers once and Prowlarr syncs them to Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, and friends, with search and stats. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service with a persistent config volume.

nomad-pack run prowlarr --registry nomploy

…or one line (add registry + run)

curl -fsSL https://packs.nomploy.com/install.sh | sh -s -- prowlarr

Needs nomad-pack on PATH. The script only adds the nomploy registry and runs this pack.

Paths assume the default Docker volume location (/var/lib/docker/volumes). Restore by stopping the job, restoring files into the same volume, and re-running the pack.

Readme

prowlarr

Prowlarr — an indexer manager for the *arr media stack. Configure your torrent and Usenet indexers once, and Prowlarr keeps them in sync across Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Readarr, and more — with unified search, stats, and health checks.

Single host-networked Nomad service with a persistent config volume.

Deploy

nomad-pack registry add nomploy https://github.com/Nomploy/nomad-packs
nomad-pack run prowlarr --registry=nomploy

Configure

Variable	Default	Description
`port`	`9696`	Web UI port.
`config_volume`	`prowlarr_config`	`/config` — database, settings, indexers.
`puid` / `pgid`	`1000` / `1000`	User/group the app runs as (`PUID`/`PGID`).
`tz`	`UTC`	Container timezone (`TZ`).
`image`	`lscr.io/linuxserver/prowlarr:latest`	Container image. Pin a tag in production.
`resources`	`{ cpu = 300, memory = 256 }`	Task resources.

Add indexers, then link the sonarr / radarr packs under Settings > Apps so Prowlarr pushes indexers to them (co-located apps are reachable on 127.0.0.1). Serves plain HTTP — front it with a reverse proxy for TLS. Only use indexers you're entitled to. Pin the job to the node holding the volume with constraints.
