[Deluge](http://deluge-torrent.org/) is a lightweight, Free Software, cross-platform BitTorrent client.

* Full Encryption
* WebUI
* Plugin System
* Much more...

## Supported Architectures

Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).

Simply pulling `ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

| Architecture | Tag |
| :----: | --- |
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v7-latest |

## Application Setup

The admin interface is available at `http://SERVER-IP:8112` with a default user/password of admin/deluge.

To change the password (recommended) log in to the web interface and go to Preferences->Interface->Password.

Change the downloads location in the webui in Preferences->Downloads and use /downloads for completed downloads.

Change the inbound port to 6881 (or whichever port you've mapped for the container) under Preferences->Network, otherwise random ports will be used.

## Usage

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.

### docker-compose ([recommended](https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/docker-compose))

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

```yaml
---
version: "2.1"
services:
  deluge:
    image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge
    container_name: deluge
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
      - DELUGE_LOGLEVEL=error #optional
    volumes:
      - /path/to/deluge/config:/config
      - /path/to/your/downloads:/downloads
    ports:
      - 8112:8112
      - 6881:6881
      - 6881/udp:6881/udp
    restart: unless-stopped
```

### docker cli

```bash
docker run -d \
  --name=deluge \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -e DELUGE_LOGLEVEL=error `#optional` \
  -p 8112:8112 \
  -p 6881:6881 \
  -p 6881/udp:6881/udp \
  -v /path/to/deluge/config:/config \
  -v /path/to/your/downloads:/downloads \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge
```

## Parameters

Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `<external>:<internal>` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container.

### Ports (`-p`)

| Parameter | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `8112` | Port for webui |
| `6881` | Inbound torrent traffic (See App Setup) |
| `6881/udp` | Inbound torrent traffic (See App Setup) |

### Environment Variables (`-e`)

| Env | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation |
| `PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation |
| `TZ=Europe/London` | Specify a timezone to use |
| `DELUGE_LOGLEVEL=error` | set the loglevel output when running Deluge, default is info for deluged and warning for delgued-web |

### Volume Mappings (`-v`)

| Volume | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `/config` | deluge configs |
| `/downloads` | torrent download directory |

## Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend `FILE__`.

As an example:

```bash
-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword
```

Will set the environment variable `PASSWORD` based on the contents of the `/run/secrets/mysecretpassword` file.

## Umask for running applications

For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional `-e UMASK=022` setting.
Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask) before asking for support.

## User / Group Identifiers

When using volumes (`-v` flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user `PUID` and group `PGID`.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance `PUID=1000` and `PGID=1000`, to find yours use `id user` as below:

```bash
  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)
```

We publish various [Docker Mods](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-mods) to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
