XBMC/KODI-Headless Docker

Sparkly, i will try this approach aswell. What about updating addons?

The ones that are in the repos, will it be enough just to stop and start the docker? Since these addons update on startup...

And for addons that you have to "install from zip file" would it be enough, after the initial install using your method, to just extract and overwrite the addon-files with the updated files?

 

no idea, not something i've even remotely thought about, i don't use it for anything other than it was intended for, updating my media library.

Would love to have the imdb-rating-updater addon and artwork downloader added. That would make media scraping perfect.

If I find the time, I will try to add these addons and see if they work correctly.

Does this still require mysql, or can it run sqlite3?

I try it to use at my synology ds415+ it has also docker application.

When i download your docker file (thx a lot for your work!!!!)  i put my mysql settings in the settings and copy my sources.xml file into the docker but he don't scan the library.

Can you help me?

You don't mention advancedsettins.xml, him come? You need that file as well as it creates the connection to the database. Also, I found that the initial scan needs to be performed from the KODI application installed on a laptop or desktop, or your htpc, otherwise it doesn't work as well. 

the advancedsettings.xml is automatic created by the docker (in my case)

So i have to let my laptop scan my directory to the database after that de docker can scan new movies/series?

NFS or Samba doesn't mather?

Nfs if you can, it has a smaller overhead. But in the end it doesn't matter. I've been using Samba four years without issues

Yes! it works!

Thx a lot!

Did the program automatic scan my directory or do i need a cronjob or something?

 

Thx a lot!

I did the scan with my laptop, i see now titles at the webinterface but i don't see images of my series?

When you set the content you need to enable the tvdb scraper.

 

Do you see images on your laptop?

We answer the same time ;-) It was a NFS rights issue ;-)

Yes! it works!

Generally you let sonarr or couch notify your headless to perform a scan after a download has completed.

I have already done that ;-)

What about the movies, i will use a script at nzbget or do i use a cron job with command for it.

I will looking for it.

Nzbget does not need to notify your headless. It's the application that handles movies such as Couchpotato that notifies your kodi headless.
