Prerequisites:

- Some domain
- Docker installed
- Docker-compose installed

Installation

1. Create docker network

   docker network create nextcloud_network

2. Setup the credentials and storage path in .env file
3. Launch docker compose setup

   docker-compose up -d

Post-instalation configuration

1. First, disable and stop Ubuntu's DNS resolver using the following two commands, otherwise pi-hole can't start because port 53 will be in use:

   sudo systemctl disable systemd-resolved.service
   sudo systemctl stop systemd-resolved.service

   Open network manager configuration using the following command for editing:

   sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

   Add dns=default under [main] so that the file contents look like what is shown below:

   	[main]
   	plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
   	dns=default
   

   Then, remove or even better rename /etc/resolv.conf file (it is a symbolic link) using the the following command:

   sudo mv /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf.bak
   
   restart your network manager using the following command.
   
   sudo service network-manager restart

2. Set your domain as trusted domain on Nextcloud config If you try to access your nextcloud instance right now, you will receive a message telling that this is not a trusted domain. To fix this you should setup your domain in two parameters of the file "app/config/config.php": first one under 'trusted_domains' => and the other one at 'overwrite.cli.url'

   Setting up External Storage

   'check_data_directory_permissions' => false,
   

   Needed to go through the reverse proxy:

   ‘overwriteprotocol’ => ‘https’,
   

3. IMPORTANT: Remember to setup passwords at first deployment to sonarr, radarr and lidarr, otherwise they will be exposed to the internet without password.
