I've switched to docker-compose for managing my containers. Something must have changed in 18 months, right? Yes, actually. Debian is absolutely bullet proof, docker encapsulates the 'risky' applications into safe sandboxes, mergerfs just works and snapraid too. Those who know me, know this is ridiculous for my home server. This is a system I can leave running for months at a time without needing to look at it. The system is put together on top of Debian 9 (Stretch), docker, snapraid and mergerfs. Ok, that might be a bit rich but honestly nothing major has needed to change since the original article. I touted the solution I last wrote about as 'flawless'. It is not only free as in beer, but none of the software used requires you to pay a single penny to get up and running - it is completely free. As do the original requirements in the 2016 article. The core tenet of using only Free Open Source Software wherever possible still remains in place from before. Head on over for support and to ask any questions!įollowing up on extensive feedback to the original post in the past 18 months I will this time, explain how you can actually set up all the required software yourself - without any real previous knowledge of scripting tools like Ansible (which I still highly recommend and personally use, by the way!). And as if I needed further excuses, Debian just released version 9 so now is a great time upgrade / switch.Įdit: Sept 2017 - We have just launched a Discord server. It still proves a very popular piece so I thought it about time to update the article where appropriate and give some further information on how you can put this setup together yourself. It's been almost 18 months since my original article in 2016 on the 'perfect' media server - this article assumes you've read that one for background on the software we're about to install.
