⁠tronyx/docker-plpp

Feel free to submit Pull Requests and report any Issues that you may have found.

⁠PLPP

Provides a PHP front end to simply present PLEX libraries on the web without the possibility to play or download the library items. Currently movie/home video, TV show, music and photo/picture libraries are supported.

⁠Usage

docker create \
  --name plpp \
  -v <path to data>:/config \
  -e PGID=<gid> -e PUID=<uid>  \
  -p 80:80 \
  tronyx/docker-plpp

Then start the container with:

docker start plpp

For Docker-Compose you can use something similar to the below:

plpp:
  container_name: plpp
  image: tronyx/docker-plpp
  hostname: plpp
  restart: on-failure
  volumes:
    - "/home/plpp/config/:/config"
  ports:
    - "8383:80"

⁠Image Tags

• The latest tag will get you the original PLPP image.
• The armhf tag is an adaptation of the latest image for ArmHF platforms like the RaspberryPi.
• The arm64 tag is an adaptation of the latest image for Arm64 platforms like the ASRock64.

⁠Parameters

The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side. For example with a port -p external:internal - what this shows is the port mapping from internal to external of the container. So -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 and http://192.168.x.x:8080 would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 80.

• -p 80 - The port(s)
• -v /config - Mapping the config files for PLPP
• -e PGID Used for GroupID - see below for explanation
• -e PUID Used for UserID - see below for explanation

It is based on Alpine Linux with an s6 overlay.

⁠User / Group Identifiers

Sometimes when using data 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 the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will "just work" ™.

In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001. To find yours use id user as below:

  $ id <dockeruser>
    uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)

⁠Setting up the application

Point your web browser to DOCKER-HOST-IP:PLPP-PORT/settings.php, IE: http://192.168.x.x:8080/settings.php and you will first be prompted to set the password for the settings section. Once you're done that you can login and configure the settings.
