Request for instructions and guide for installing on Unraid

[blitzio]

Hi, please can I request help for a guide on installing iSponsorBlockTV on the Unraid OS?

I tried following the current docs but find it a little too advanced for someone like me and would appreciate if someone could help out step by step within the context of setting it up on Unraid if possible.

Thanks for the kind consideration.

I used the terminal console in Unraid, then followed the steps outlined in the wiki for using the text based CLI configurator tool.

Thanks for your reply, and I'm wondering if using the terminal console within Unraid itself, will it also eventually add it to the list of Docker containers or at least be visible here so that we can go back to and modify/edit or remove later on? Wondering what your experience and setup on Unraid is like after installing it.

For example will it be added to the list of cointainers and viewable here on Unraid:

Another question I had was for this part

-v /PATH_TO_YOUR_DATA_DIR:/app/data \

Did you create this first on your share before starting the initial steps?

Yes it’ll be added to the list of containers. I can see and edit the template from that list. I didn’t create the folder either. I let the docker install steps do it.

So I managed to get it running via the Unraid terminal using the instructions provided in Installation Wiki, and it seems to finally be working but I noticed that in my Docker Containers list, there seems to be randomized containers being created every few hours and they have weird names.

Will it just keep multiplying over time? I've had it running for almost a day now and they keep getting generated, see below screenshots.

Could anyone please advise?

Thanks

I’d suggest starting over and using the docker hub version when you search through the Unraid Apps page. I guess it just got added.

Update - That fork has been discontinued lol

Got it

Step 1. create a folder for the appdata, I did ' /mnt/user/appdata/isponsorblocktv'
Step 2. Go to the CLI in the docker webui (upper right corner)
Step 3. run

docker run --rm -it \
-v /mnt/user/appdata/isponsorblocktv:/app/data \
ghcr.io/dmunozv04/isponsorblocktv \
--setup-cli

step 4. it should give an error that there is no config file and that it is creating the config file

step 5. run the same command again and it should let you set up the config file
