[Sonarr](https://sonarr.tv/) (formerly NZBdrone) is a PVR for usenet and bittorrent users. It can monitor multiple RSS feeds for new episodes of your favorite shows and will grab, sort and rename them. It can also be configured to automatically upgrade the quality of files already downloaded when a better quality format becomes available.
## 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).
The architectures supported by this image are:
| Architecture | Tag |
| :----: | --- |
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v6-latest |
## Usage
Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.
This image provides various versions that are available via tags. `latest` tag usually provides the latest stable version. Others are considered under development and caution must be exercised when using them.
| Tag | Description |
| :----: | --- |
| latest | stable builds from the master branch of sonarr (currently v2) |
| develop | development builds from the develop branch of sonarr (currently v2) |
| preview | preview builds from the phantom-develop branch of sonarr (currently v3) |
### docker-compose
Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.
```yaml
---
version: "2"
services:
sonarr:
image: linuxserver/sonarr
container_name: sonarr
environment:
- PUID=1001
- PGID=1001
- TZ=Europe/London
volumes:
-<pathtodata>:/config
-<path/to/tvseries>:/tv
-<path/to/downloadclient-downloads>:/downloads
ports:
- 8989:8989
mem_limit: 4096m
restart: unless-stopped
```
## 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 |
| :----: | --- |
| `8989` | The port for the Sonarr webinterface |
### Environment Variables (`-e`)
| Env | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `PUID=1001` | for UserID - see below for explanation |
| `PGID=1001` | for GroupID - see below for explanation |
| `TZ=Europe/London` | Specify a timezone to use EG Europe/London, this is required for Sonarr |
### Volume Mappings (`-v`)
| Volume | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `/config` | Database and sonarr configs |
| `/tv` | Location of TV library on disk |
| `/downloads` | Location of download managers output directory |
## 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=1001` and `PGID=1001`, to find yours use `id user` as below:
