Hi everyone,

please someone could give me hint on how to make it work on my Unraid server ?I pulled the eugenci/papermerge image but I don't know how to configure it...:

/config allocation, /db ?, internal/external port, other ?

I'm used to those types of way to go (example woth SabNZBd) :

docker create \ 
--name=sabnzbd \ 
-e PUID=1000 \ 
-e PGID=1000 \ 
-e TZ=Europe/London \ 
-p 8080:8080 \ 
-p 9090:9090 \ 
-v /path/to/data:/config \ 
-v /path/to/downloads:/downloads \ 
-v /path/to/incomplete/downloads:/incomplete-downloads
--restart unless-stopped \   
linuxserver/sabnzbd

But I'm not able to use the docker compose method.
Any hints for me ?

Hi @guim31,
this issue (https://github.com/selfhosters/unRAID-CA-templates/issues/133) might be related to your effort of running Papermerge in Unraid.

Once I find the time, I will look into creating a Papermerge template for Unraid as I'm also created such a template for Paperless (paperless.xml). This might require changes to the project though. For the time being, I'm afraid you need to wait until it is available.

I think having a template for Unraid might increase the Papermerge user base enormously. @ciur I think you can add the label packaging here and rename the ticket to Docker installation with Unraid

Thanks a lot! I will wait for sure, there's no problem with that as I'm not able to do it myself!

Oh fine, just about to open an issue on that topic. I also want to use papermerge in UnRaid... maybe I will find some time...

i have it installed on unraid. problem is no template. you have to do it through docker-compose. of course there is no template for that either so you have to "sideload" it. installing compose this way does NOT survive reboots. i just created a script using userscripts plugin to reinstall after reboot. (make sure to click run in background when starting this way)

run this from cli to install docker-compose:
curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.25.5/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

next follow documentation to clone repo from cli:
cd /mnt/user/appdata
git clone https://github.com/ciur/papermerge papermerge-proj
cd papermerge-proj/docker

once in docker (depending on version you wish to use):
cd 1.4
docker-compose up -d

I would recommend installing the portainer container from CA to view and manage your docker-compose stacks.

As I'm not in a hurry I'll choose to wait a little bit more to try an Unraid template if someone creates one.

Too much console for me 😇
