  • For the purposes of this guide...
    • All of your media is located at ./media

To setup

  • npm install

To start

  • PIA_USER=username PIA_PASS=password npm run docker
    • Note that this will take a few minutes depending on your broadband speed on inital startup.
    • Every restart thereafter will be almost instant.
