At this time, Whatbox servers have limited support for containers. It may stop working at any time.

A random port number between 10000 and 32767 is needed and will be used to access Sportarr. The port number 29868 has automatically been generated and will be used throughout this article, but can be changed if needed.

Connect to your slot using SSH

  1. Create ~/sportarr/sportarr.yml

     mkdir -p ~/sportarr; touch ~/sportarr/sportarr.yml
    
  2. Open the file with nano ~/sportarr/sportarr.yml and add the text in this text box to the file

     services:
         sportarr:
         image: docker.io/sportarr/sportarr:latest
         container_name: sportarr
     environment:
         - PUID=0
         - PGID=0
         - UMASK=022
         - TZ=UTC  # Optional: use your own timezone
     volumes:
         - /home/user/sportarr:/config
         - /home/user/files:/data
     ports:
         - 29868:1867
     restart: unless-stopped
    

    Save the file by pressing Ctrl+S then exit nano with Ctrl+X

  3. Run the Sportarr application

     podman-compose -f ~/sportarr/sportarr.yml up -d

Authentication is required; make sure to select one option like Forms. You may not be able to add a torrent client in the setup wizard; you can add one later at http://localhost:29868/settings/downloadclients where you can check Use SSL.
