How to setup an LXC container with docker and amule in Proxmox

Proxmox

First we need to install the Alpine LXC, the easiest way is to use Proxmox Helper scripts: https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/raw/main/ct/alpine.sh)"

I would install in "advance" mode and be generous with the resources (4 cores, 2G ram, 8GB disk)

Alpine LXC

First we need to setup docker:

apk update
apk add docker docker-compose
rc-update add docker
service docker start

Then just create a docker-compose.yml file with this content:

version: "2.1"
services:
  amule:
    image: ngosang/amule
    container_name: amule
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
      - GUI_PWD=<fill_password>
      - WEBUI_PWD=<fill_password>
      - MOD_AUTO_RESTART_ENABLED=true
      - MOD_AUTO_RESTART_CRON=0 6 * * *
      - MOD_AUTO_SHARE_ENABLED=false
      - MOD_AUTO_SHARE_DIRECTORIES=/incoming;/my_movies
      - MOD_FIX_KAD_GRAPH_ENABLED=true
      - MOD_FIX_KAD_BOOTSTRAP_ENABLED=true
    network_mode: "host"
    volumes:
      - <fill_amule_configuration_path>:/home/amule/.aMule
      - <fill_amule_completed_downloads_path>:/incoming
      - <fill_amule_incomplete_downloads_path>:/temp
    restart: unless-stopped

To run it docker-compose up -d.
