⁠Transmission

Transmission docker container

⁠What is Transmission?

Transmission is a BitTorrent client which features a simple interface on top of a cross-platform back-end.

⁠How to use this image

This Transmission container was built to automatically download a level1 host filter (can be used with dperson/openvpn).

⁠Hosting a Transmission instance

sudo docker run --name transmission -p 9091:9091 -d dperson/transmission

OR set local storage:

sudo docker run --name transmission -p 9091:9091 \
            -v /path/to/directory:/var/lib/transmission-daemon/downloads \
            -d dperson/transmission

⁠Configuration

sudo docker run -it --rm dperson/transmission -h

Usage: transmission.sh [-opt] [command]
Options (fields in '[]' are optional, '<>' are required):
    -h          This help
    -t ""       Configure timezone
                possible arg: "[timezone]" - zoneinfo timezone for container

The 'command' (if provided and valid) will be run instead of transmission

ENVIROMENT VARIABLES (only available with docker run)

• TRUSER - Set the username for transmission auth (default 'admin')
• TRPASSWD - Set the password for transmission auth (default 'admin')
• TIMEZONE - As above, set a zoneinfo timezone, IE EST5EDT

⁠Examples

Any of the commands can be run at creation with docker run or later with docker exec transmission.sh (as of version 1.3 of docker).

sudo docker run --name transmission -d dperson/transmission -t EST5EDT

Will get you the same settings as

sudo docker run --name transmission -p 9091:9091 -d dperson/transmission
sudo docker exec transmission transmission.sh -T EST5EDT \
            ls -AlF /etc/localtime
sudo docker restart transmission
