linuxserver/jackett
Jackett works as a proxy server: it translates queries from apps (Sonarr, SickRage, CouchPotato, Mylar, etc) into tracker-site-specific http queries, parses the html response, then sends results back to the requesting software. This allows for getting recent uploads (like RSS) and performing searches. Jackett is a single repository of maintained indexer scraping & translation logic - removing the burden from other apps.
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.
Simply pulling linuxserver/jackett
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 | arm32v6-latest |
Usage
Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.
docker
docker create \
--name=jackett \
-e PUID=1001 \
-e PGID=1001 \
-e TZ=Europe/London \
-e RUN_OPTS=<run options here> `#optional` \
-p 9117:9117 \
-v <path to data>:/config \
-v <path to blackhole>:/downloads \
--restart unless-stopped \
linuxserver/jackett
docker-compose
Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

image: linuxserver/jackett
container_name: jackett
environment:
- PUID=1001
- PGID=1001
- TZ=Europe/London
- RUN_OPTS=<run options here> #optional

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 |
---|---|
9117 |
WebUI |
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. |
RUN_OPTS=<run options here> |
Optionally specify additional arguments to be passed. EG. --ProxyConnection=10.0.0.100:1234 . |
Volume Mappings (-v
)
Volume | Function |
---|---|
/config |
Where Jackett should store its config file. |
/downloads |
Path to torrent blackhole. |
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:
$ id username
uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)
Application Setup
The web interface is at <your-ip>:9117
, configure various trackers and connections to other apps there.

Disable autoupdates in the webui to prevent jackett crashing, the image is refreshed when new versions are released.
Support Info
- Shell access whilst the container is running:
