Project One-Click: All-in-One Installations of Docker Extensions and CDVR Custom Channels

mexicanmamba · February 19, 2025, 11:23pm

I am just not getting this, I edited the docker compose file and followed the video

bnhf · February 19, 2025, 11:37pm

I get the feeling you're not reading the comments in the Compose. Like this one (though I do see the wording could be better in this case):

So go back to the original OliveTin compose, and make NO changes to it. Everything specific to your installation, is set in the Environment variables section of the Portainer stack.

You'll want to set all of these, with appropriate (correct) values for your server, in order to have full OliveTin-for-Channels functionality:

TAG=latest
DOMAIN=tailxxxxx.ts.net
HOST_PORT=1337
CHANNELS_DVR_HOST=local-server
CHANNELS_DVR_PORT=8089
CHANNELS_DVR2_HOST=another-server
CHANNELS_DVR2_PORT=8089
CHANNELS_CLIENTS=appletv4k-den firestick-bedroom
ALERT_SMTP_SERVER=smtp.gmail.com:587
ALERT_EMAIL_FROM=username@gmail.com
ALERT_EMAIL_PASS=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ALERT_EMAIL_TO=username@gmail.com
UPDATE_YAMLS=true
UPDATE_SCRIPTS=true
TZ=US/Mountain
HOST_DIR=/data
DVR_SHARE=/mnt/dvr
LOGS_SHARE=/mnt/channelsdvr
TUBEARCHIVIST_SHARE=/mnt/dvr
HOST_SFS_PORT=8080
FOLDER=/web
PORTAINER_TOKEN=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PORTAINER_HOST=docker-host
PORTAINER_PORT=9443

Post a version of this list of variables, in text form, with your values substituted in -- and I'll give you feedback on any that don't look correct. If you use Advanced mode when editing your env vars, you can copy and paste them in a form like the above.

EDIT: Don't publicly post (i.e. [REDACT]) any of your e-mail values, your Portainer token or your Tailnet domain (if you have one) -- anything else is fine.

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 12:08am

Yes, email is required for most of the Actions that send alerts. Setup an "app" password using Gmail or Yahoo.

Your values look pretty good, though I'm adding comments to those that I know/suspect are wrong:

TAG=latest
DOMAIN=localdomain # This may, or may not be correct for your LAN, so adjust if needed
HOST_PORT=1337
CHANNELS_DVR_HOST=192.168.7.10X
CHANNELS_DVR_PORT=8089
CHANNELS_DVR2_HOST=
CHANNELS_DVR2_PORT=
CHANNELS_CLIENTS= # Enter the IP addresses of your Channels clients (space separated) for onscreen alerts
ALERT_SMTP_SERVER=smtp.gmail.com:587
ALERT_EMAIL_FROM=
ALERT_EMAIL_PASS=
ALERT_EMAIL_TO=
UPDATE_YAMLS=true
UPDATE_SCRIPTS=true
TZ=US/Arizona
HOST_DIR=/volume1/docker # Create a directory called olivetin in this directory before deploying the container (this is a Synology only requirement)
DVR_SHARE=/volume1/docker/channelsdvr
LOGS_SHARE=/volume1/docker/channelsdvr # This should be the path to your CDVR executables
TUBEARCHIVIST_SHARE=/volume1/docker/channelsdvr
HOST_SFS_PORT=8080
FOLDER=/web
PORTAINER_TOKEN=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
PORTAINER_HOST=docker-host #This should be changed to the same IP you used above for CHANNELS_DVR_HOST, since everything is on the same server
PORTAINER_PORT=9443

chDVRuser · February 20, 2025, 12:14am

Couple notes

bnhf:

CHANNELS_DVR_HOST=192.168.7.10X # This is not a valid IP address, no need to hide a private IP
DVR_SHARE=/volume1/docker/channelsdvr # This is where you want Channels to record to, shouldn't be the same as the executable directory LOGS_SHARE

chDVRuser · February 20, 2025, 12:32am

You will need to create these directories on your Synology before deploying the Olive Tin stack
/volume1/docker/channelsdvr and /volume1/chDVRtve
/volume1/docker/channelsdvr is where the Channels executables and log file goes
/volume1/chDVRtve is where it will record to

If either of those already exist and are being used, you have to choose other directories.

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 12:36am

This needs to be a writable parent directory on Synology. Most use:

HOST_DIR=/volume1/docker

Then create a directory called olivetin under that parent before deploying OliveTin.

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 12:38am

Channels clients are devices like Apple TVs, FireSticks and the like. Add the IP addresses for those devices (space separated).

chDVRuser · February 20, 2025, 12:47am

Should be /volume1/chDVRtve

And you need to add your email password
ALERT_EMAIL_PASS=your_password_here

chDVRuser · February 20, 2025, 12:54am

Need device names and/or IP addresses
iphone 16 pro is not a valid device name (no spaces allowed in a name)

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 2:12am

@mexicanmamba

Looks promising. Does it deploy?

If so, run the OliveTin Post-Install Health check Action and post the results from Standard Output here

mexicanmamba · February 20, 2025, 2:32am

The only issue is "Deployment error Failed to deploy a stack: compose up operation failed: Error response from daemon: Bind mount failed: '/volume1/docker/olivetin/data' does not exists"

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 2:37am

Forgot about that Synology detail. You need to create a data directory under /volume1/docker/olivetin.

Do that, and then redeploy.

Just tested, and it deployed fine for me.

It looks like you only posted Standard Error. What was showing in Standard Output?

mexicanmamba · February 20, 2025, 3:05am

JSON response from http://192.168.7.109:9000/api/stacks?type=2&method=string&endpointId=2:

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 3:13am

This part is weird, with no response from Portainer. I'll look at this tomorrow.

bnhf · February 20, 2025, 3:28am

There should be 3 more lines that are part of Standard Output. Could you post those too please?
