Our images support multiple architectures such as x86-64, arm64 and armhf. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.
Simply pulling ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.
The architectures supported by this image are:
| Architecture | Tag |
|---|---|
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v7-latest |
Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container.
docker-compose (recommended)
Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.
---
version: "2.1"
services:
deluge:
image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge
container_name: deluge
network_mode: host
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- TZ=Europe/London
- DELUGE_LOGLEVEL=error #optional
volumes:
- /path/to/deluge/config:/config
- /path/to/your/downloads:/downloads
restart: unless-stoppeddocker run -d \
--name=deluge \
--net=host \
-e PUID=1000 \
-e PGID=1000 \
-e TZ=Europe/London \
-e DELUGE_LOGLEVEL=error `#optional` \
-v /path/to/deluge/config:/config \
-v /path/to/your/downloads:/downloads \
--restart unless-stopped \
ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge
Container images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.
| Parameter | Function |
|---|---|
--net=host |
Shares host networking with container, required. |
-e PUID=1000 |
for UserID - see below for explanation |
-e PGID=1000 |
for GroupID - see below for explanation |
-e TZ=Europe/London |
Specify a timezone to use |
-e DELUGE_LOGLEVEL=error |
set the loglevel output when running Deluge, default is info for deluged and warning for delgued-web |
-v /config |
deluge configs |
-v /downloads |
torrent download directory |
You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.
As an example:
-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword
Will set the environment variable PASSWORD based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretpassword file.
For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022 setting.
Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.
When using 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 any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.
In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:
$ id username
uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)
The admin interface is available at http://SERVER-IP:8112 with a default user/password of admin/deluge.
To change the password (recommended) log in to the web interface and go to Preferences->Interface->Password.
Change the downloads location in the webui in Preferences->Downloads and use /downloads for completed downloads.
We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
- Shell access whilst the container is running:
docker exec -it deluge /bin/bash - To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:
docker logs -f deluge - container version number
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' deluge
- image version number
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge
Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (ie. nextcloud, plex), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the Application Setup section above to see if it is recommended for the image.
Below are the instructions for updating containers:
- Update all images:
docker-compose pull- or update a single image:
docker-compose pull deluge
- or update a single image:
- Let compose update all containers as necessary:
docker-compose up -d- or update a single container:
docker-compose up -d deluge
- or update a single container:
- You can also remove the old dangling images:
docker image prune
- Update the image:
docker pull ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge - Stop the running container:
docker stop deluge - Delete the container:
docker rm deluge - Recreate a new container with the same docker run parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your
/configfolder and settings will be preserved) - You can also remove the old dangling images:
docker image prune
- Pull the latest image at its tag and replace it with the same env variables in one run:
docker run --rm \ -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \ containrrr/watchtower \ --run-once deluge - You can also remove the old dangling images:
docker image prune
Note: We do not endorse the use of Watchtower as a solution to automated updates of existing Docker containers. In fact we generally discourage automated updates. However, this is a useful tool for one-time manual updates of containers where you have forgotten the original parameters. In the long term, we highly recommend using Docker Compose.
- We recommend Diun for update notifications. Other tools that automatically update containers unattended are not recommended or supported.
If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:
git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-deluge.git
cd docker-deluge
docker build \
--no-cache \
--pull \
-t ghcr.io/linuxserver/deluge:latest .
The ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware using multiarch/qemu-user-static
docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static:register --reset
Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with -f Dockerfile.aarch64.
