I tend to use docker-compose to build and run my images and containers. I tend to check here first when I need a new image. I’ve been using LinuxServer.io images for a couple of years they are certainly easy-to-use, clear, and concisely documented. Our primary goal is to provide easy-to-use and streamlined Docker images with clear and concise documentation. At our core are the principles behind Free and Open Source Software. LinuxServer.io describes their organization as:Ī group of like-minded enthusiasts from across the world who build and maintain the largest collection of Docker images on the web. Want to learn more about my home network? Last time I wrote about running a Unifi Controller image. Today I’ll explain how I set up my system to run Plex’s software via the LinuxServer.io Plex image on a Docker host in my basement. I can watch that media on just about any device in my house using Plex, a wonderful piece of software for streaming media around the network.

The files are now stored on the NAS running in my local network. Late last year, I bought a Blu-ray/DVD drive for my home computer and ripped all the movies and television shows I have on physical disks.
