docker-kodi-server

This will allow you to

  • serve files through the XBMC UPnP Library to your UPnP client/players (such as Xbmc or Chromecast).
  • Web access every time , or use with some tools like htpc-manager
  • Trigger library scan When you want or from sickbeard/sickrage/couchpotato/...

Docker is used to compile and run the latest headless version of KODI on Archlinux

Preqrequisites:

Quick start

  1. Prepare a full kodi profile with the GUI version

If you require web access, make sure to enable this, and set the port to 8089. Because 8080 is default for http proxy , the docker image expose 8089

  1. Make a copy of the ~/.kodi directory ( destination doesn't matter , this is just an example)

     $ cp -r ~./kodi ~/kodi-server-profile

  2. Use prebuild docker image (see here)

For the last stable version,

    $ docker pull celedhrim/kodi-server

For a specific version,

    $ docker pull celedhrim/kodi-server:branchname
branchname Kodi branch Kodi version Ubuntu version
lastest ( default) krypton 17.3 Archlinux
helix helix 14.2 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)
isengard isengard 15.2 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)
jarvis jarvis 16.1 16.04 (Xenial Xerus)
krypton krypton 17.3 Archlinux
experimental krypton 17.0rc2 Archlinux

  1. Run the image ( change the /path/to/kodi-server-profile)

     $ docker run -d --restart="always" --net=host -v /path/to/kodi-server-profile:/opt/kodi-server/share/kodi/portable_data celedhrim/kodi-server

    or if use specific branch

     $ docker run -d --restart="always" --net=host -v /path/to/kodi-server-profile:/opt/kodi-server/share/kodi/portable_data celedhrim/kodi-server:branchname

Build the container yourself

$ git clone https://github.com/Celedhrim/docker-kodi-server.git
$ git checkout branchname
$ docker build --rm=true -t $(whoami)/kodi-server .

Then proceed with the Quick start section.
