Capt.Insano Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Release: rTorrent/ruTorrent Container 14/05/15: There are now 2 versions of this container in my repo: "ruTorrent" Container is based on rTorrent 0.9.4 (newest) "LegacyRuTorrent" Container is based on rTorrent 0.9.2 (for compatibilty, some private trackers have not updated to 0.9.4 yet) Hi folks, Ever since moving to unRAID I have been missing the power and flexibilty (including native RSS support) given by rTorrent&ruTorrent as a torrent client. (See the full list of ruTorrent plugins here: ) As a result I have made a rTorrent/ruTorrent container for use with unRAID Docker. Just add my repo: https://github.com/CaptInsano/docker-containers/tree/templates and ruTorrent will be listed as a container option, follow the instructions in the description and you should be up and running. It is based on phusion/baseimage:0.9.16 and it runs on the nginx webserver so is very resource light. I have picked and choosen from various docker rTorrent/ruTorrent containers to make this work well and easily with unRAID. I hope you enjoy!! The Capt. main credits: https://github.com/nuimk/rutorrent smdion Update 04/06/15 Fixes to nginx and php to allow the upload of .torrent files larger than 1MB in size (both containers) Update: 30/05/15 Fix problems with rTorrent 0.9.2 container and DockerMan (underscore in container names = :'() Change unrar-free to unrar for better compatibilty with autotools (ruTorrent plugin) (both containers) Update: 14/05/15 Initial commits for container based on rTorrent 0.9.2 named: "LegacyRuTorrent" to maintain compatibilty with some private trackers. Update: 23/03/15 (Big Update) 1. Updated to latest rTorrent (0.9.4) and libtorrent (0.13.4) in non-Legacy version 2. Added BASIC auth security: (.htaccess file is created in the /config folder) Default username:password is admin:admin To change this edit the .htaccess file, convert username:passwords into encrypted format here: http://www.htaccesstools.com/htpasswd-generator/ Follow the instructions; one username:password per line. Save file and Restart container 3. Added SSL (default https://SERVERIP:8099) This port can be changed in the Container settings The cert is created on container start and creates a generic server.crt in /config/certs All info in this generic cert is set to "unraid" If you want to swap out this cert with your own (advised) then: SSH into your unRAID server, navigate to the certs folder where you have mapped /config go to this link and follow instructions: http://www.akadia.com/services/ssh_test_certificate.html Make sure the output file is named server.crt Note: This can be done from unRAID itself not within the container Restart the container after replacing the server.crt 4. (Finally!!) Fixed umask of torrent user. umask torrent = 0002 Update: 19/03/15 I have changed the structure of the container so that the ruTorrent directory is in /config. This allows manually editing ruTorrent configs, adding 3rd Party ruTorrent plugins and ruTorrent configs are persistent across updates. Update 16/03/15 Improvement to GIT logic, existing GIT versions will get updated instead of recloned. Update 15/03/15 1.This container now has GIT support to update ruTorrent and it's plugins to the latest GIT versions. Simply set EDGE value to 1 (Turn on Advanced View when adding container). To update; Stop and Restart the container. 2. I have also change some ruTorrent settings to work better within Docker. Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 sed is a major PITA when it comes to escaping characters etc..... Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 sed -i 's/^$topDirectory .*$/$topDirectory = \'/download';/' try that. Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 just make sure that there is only one line starting with $topDirectory cos that will overwrite all of them. Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 UGH, it's escaping the ' Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 if you can't make the sed work, why not add in a preedited copy of the config file and then overwrite it ? Link to comment
Capt.Insano Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 OP updated: GIT support added to container ruTorrent config improved to remove prev bug (thanks for ideas Sparklyballs!!) Bug report removed from OP: Current (cosmetic!) Bug: looking for some advice (see below) The DiskSpace plugin which is seen in the bottom left corner of the webui defaults to showing the disk space of the docker container itself instead of the downloads location (this means that it shows the size/use of the docker.img file). This can be changed by editing a file inside the container: docker exec -it ruTorrent /bin/bash vi /var/www/rutorrent/conf/config.php then change $topDirectory = '/'; to $topDirectory = '/download'; Then save the file. Restarting the docker will then fix the DiskSpace plugin to show size of download location. I am hoping someone could help me make this change within the Dockerfile; there is currently a line that fixes the curl location within that file, but I cannot figure out how the change the regex to make a change to the $topDirectory info. curl fix within the Dockerfile: sed -i 's#\(\s*"curl"\s*=>\s*'"'"'\)''\('"'"'.*\)#\1/usr/bin/curl\2#g' /var/www/rutorrent/conf/config.php &&\ can anyone suggest the line required to make a similar change for $topDirectory location? Container working great!! Hope you enjoy! Link to comment
sacretagent Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 question i have plexconnect running in a docker on dockerport 80 it needs to be 80 and can not be changed so if i install this now then i will have 2 dockers running on port 80.... i know this one has a different host port but will this work? I want to get rid of deluge.... but i guess i can't change since this docker also runs on port 80 ? Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 You can have as many dockers as you like with container port 80 (i have 4) as long as you select a different host port for them. Link to comment

I want to get rid of deluge.... but i guess i can't change since this docker also runs on port 80 ? This container runs on container port 80. This means it is on port 80 internally to the container. Docker allows this to be linked to any external port called host port, the config file defaults it to port 8089 but even this can be changed to any port you want!! This can be ran along side any other Docker you want by making sure the host ports are different. Link to comment
Capt.Insano Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 Another update: Improved the GIT logic within the container. If a GIT version already exists, it now gets updated instead of recloned. Enjoy. Link to comment
sacretagent Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 this rutorrent works great ... better then deluge in my eyes Link to comment
vlefevre86 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Hi Capt.Insano. Love the container, I've been waiting for rutorrent for a long time... I have one issue though : the umask seems wrong beacause the folders are being created with rwxr-xr-x, and autotools fails to move them to the "completed" folder that I created. Any way to change that? Thanks Link to comment

I have one issue though : the umask seems wrong beacause the folders are being created with rwxr-xr-x, and autotools fails to move them to the "completed" folder that I created. Any way to change that? Thanks I have made some changes to how rTorrent & ruTorrent are ran within the container: This should hopefully stop the permission issues that you are having. I have also exposed the ruTorrent directory (/var/www/rutorrent) so it can be mapped your AppData folder, this will result in an easier way of changing ruTorrent settings, adding 3rd party plugins and retaining ruTorrent settings across updates. I am currently in work however so cannot test for a few hours, if you could test it and report back it would be much appreciated. If it still does not work, could you post the output of the following from the folder containing your completed folder. ls -la Thanks, The Capt Link to comment

But, for what I see in your github, it might fix the permissions inside the container, but it might break it outside : for instance, CouchPotatoe won't be able to extract rar files inside the torrent folders (the permissions still being rwxr-xr-x). Thus my idea about the umask... But, as I said, can't test it right now, so it might work as well, I am no permission guru Link to comment
ollejacobsen Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Hi all. First I want to thanks Capt.Insano for his work and that he's sharing this image. Thanks! Secondly. How do you all secure the web interface? Can any one of you share how to secure the webGui with https and login? Thanks in advance, Olle Link to comment
segator Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Hi! Thanks for your job did on rutorrent docker, but I like more if you implement multi user rutorrent on the docker I dont want to run multiple instance's of this docker with difererents ports. Bye Link to comment

Bye This is not a huge priority for me as then everyones ruTorrent docker would have multi-user enabled however, if you run docker exec -it ruTorrent /bin/bash you will be able to get "into" the container and make any changes you wish.

Capt.Insano Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 Query/Poll: Would most people prefer that this container defaulted to ssl (https) with some sort of authentication? Link to comment
archedraft Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Query/Poll: Would most people prefer that this container defaulted to ssl (https) with some sort of authentication? I don't currently use any dockers so keep that FWIW. If I decide to go to dockers instead of my Ubuntu VM, I would prefer that ssl be default with authentication on rutorrent. Link to comment

I don't currently use any dockers so keep that FWIW. If I decide to go to dockers instead of my Ubuntu VM, I would prefer that ssl be default with authentication on rutorrent. Fair enough. Adding Basic Auth looks to be really easy (I have done it in my own container). But it will mean that Basic Auth will be active for everyone (Usernames and Passwords editable of course, through a .htpasswd file in /config) Defaulting to SSL looks more involved but I will look at it if people really want it. Poll added to OP. The Capt. Link to comment
ollejacobsen Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi again. I'm really looking forward to the auth support. And now I have a different/another question. The version ofrTorrent that's included is quite old (0.9.2) and I'm having problem with it that's related to this version. When I check http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/downloads/ I see that there is a newer version 0.9.4 released. My linux knowledge is quite low but I see that the docker file is doing an apt-get for the rtorrent. Have any one had any luck running rtorrent 0.9.4? Link to comment
dalben Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Managed to install this igh out any issues but for some reason I am now struggling to get anything to download. Not sure if it's due to my firewall settings or something else. Does rutorrent use encryption? If not, that may explain why peers aren't sending anything. Link to comment

I had a little more time to test it out this week-end, and I'm back to my first issue : autotools works alright, but CP/SR can't extract anything inside the newly created torrent folders... Their permissions are rwxr-xr-x, so any user other than torrents can't write anything inside (even if they belong to the same group). The permission needs to be rwxrwxr-x at least... Link to comment
Capt.Insano Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 Expect a new build tonight with SSL and Auth support (I will add an optional SSL=1 environmental flag for people not bothered with SSL) Auth username & password will be configurable through a file in the /config directory. Hi again. I'm really looking forward to the auth support. And now I have a different/another question.

My linux knowledge is quite low but I see that the docker file is doing an apt-get for the rtorrent. Have any one had any luck running rtorrent 0.9.4? I will look into this, it will mean building rTorrent within the container however which will increase the size of the container more than I would like. I had a little more time to test it out this week-end, and I'm back to my first issue : autotools works alright, but CP/SR can't extract anything inside the newly created torrent folders... Their permissions are rwxr-xr-x, so any user other than torrents can't write anything inside (even if they belong to the same group). The permission needs to be rwxrwxr-x at least... I am struggling to find a proper fix for this, I do not fully understand how to set mask settings for a user such that all files/directories created by the user "torrent" have 777 permissions. Managed to install this igh out any issues but for some reason I am now struggling to get anything to download. Not sure if it's due to my firewall settings or something else. Does rutorrent use encryption? If not, that may explain why peers aren't sending anything. It is likely due to your firewall settings as I can download no problem. Check your settings however in .rtorrent.rc file in the /config folder. You can have encryption on or off. Thanks Link to comment
