Installation Guide

Prerequisites

• Ensure Docker and Docker Compose are installed on your system.

• If you plan to use OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect for authentication, you will need an account and client credentials from an OpenID provider (e.g., Authentik, Pocket ID).

Setup

• Download the docker-compose.yaml from the MediaManager repo with the following command:

  wget -O docker-compose.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maxdorninger/MediaManager/refs/heads/master/docker-compose.yaml mkdir config wget -O ./config/config.toml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maxdorninger/MediaManager/refs/heads/master/config.example.toml # you probably need to edit the config.toml file in the ./config directory, for more help see the documentation docker compose up -d

• Upon first run, MediaManager will create a default config.toml file in the ./config directory.

• You can edit this file to configure MediaManager according to your needs.

• Upon first run, MediaManager will also create a default admin user with the email, it's recommended to change the password of this user after the first login. The credentials of the default admin user will be printed in the logs of the container.

• For more information on the available configuration options, see the Configuration section of the documentation.

MediaManager and MetadataRelay Docker Images

MediaManager is available as a Docker image on both Red Hat Quay.io and GitHub Container Registry (GHCR):

• quay.io/maxdorninger/mediamanager

• ghcr.io/maxdorninger/mediamanager/mediamanager

MetadataRelay Images are also available on both registries:

• quay.io/maxdorninger/metadata_relay

• ghcr.io/maxdorninger/mediamanager/metadata_relay

From v1.12.1 onwards, both MediaManager and MetadataRelay images are available on both Quay.io and GHCR. The reason for the switch to Quay.io as the primary image registry is due to GHCR's continued slow performance.
