GitHub - midarrlabs/midarr-server: 🔥Midarr, the minimal lightweight media server.

Your media enjoyed with a minimal lightweight media server

Free and open source (and always will be), Midarr aims to provide a tailored experience for you and your users:

Beautifully crafted user interface
Real-time online statuses
Simple and easy invite system
Integrates with your existing services, Radarr and Sonarr

What is this?

This is a lightweight (albeit companion) media server to the likes of Radarr and Sonarr. Your media is left untouched and unscathed as it is served through a simple (yet familiar) web interface that puts your media front and center for you and your users to enjoy.

While other media solutions look to re-index, re-fetch and re-double handle your media library, Midarr simply leverages your pre-existing services to delight and enhance your media experience.

How is this lightweight?

Direct streaming. Your media served fresh off the metal.
Smart caching. Your media smartly kept in sync with your integrations.
Integrated experience. Your media kept the way you like it.

What else does this do?

Your media is served through a slick web interface providing:

User authentication
User profile settings
User online statuses

with more features planned ahead.

FAQ

Why won't my media play?

Midarr looks to your integrations to resolve your media locations. Midarr is not aware of where your media lives! A common way to mount a media library is to mount the root directory where both movies and series reside:

services:

  midarr:
    volumes:
      - /path/to/media:/media

  radarr:
    volumes:
      - /path/to/media:/media

  sonarr:
    volumes:
      - /path/to/media:/media

Why won't my media sync?

To keep your media in sync, webhook urls are required in your integrations. Midarr accepts a POST request from your integrations with your unique API Token (found on the Midarr Settings page).

Add these webhook urls to Radarr / Sonarr under Settings -> Connect -> Webhook:

Radarr example

http://midarr:4000/api/webhooks/movie?token=some-api-token

Sonarr example

http://midarr:4000/api/webhooks/series?token=some-api-token

What integrations does this support?

We support the following integration versions:

Radarr v5.x
Sonarr v4.x
