[GUIDE] Lidarr - Soularr - Slskd Automation
I have decided to post here my config and share how to make it work. There are some who have failed import problems including me but I finally solved my import problem and permission issue after so many trial and error.
Although, this automation is not perfect, I have found this easier than the other. I also have MeTube container for my backup. Below is the summary of what this automation does.
- You want to download music or albums from an artist, you go to Lidarr and search.
- Lidarr will communicate to soularr and say to slskd "Hey slskd, my buddy lidarr wants to download this, can you please check if this is available to you"
- Slskd will then get the message and say "I got it, I will download it if it is available"
- After it finishes the download, slskd will inform soularr that the download is complete.
- Soularr will inform lidarr that it is ready for import. Lidarr will say "Ok thank you let me save it on my music library then".
For those who have permission issue or have failed import, you need to make the PUID and GUID for both Lidarr and Soularr the same. For example, I have set PUID 99 and GUID 100 for Lidarr, you need to set also in Soularr PUID 99 and GUID 100.
I'm using Unraid and below is my config.
Lidarr => Lidarr unraid config (I'm using LSIO)
Soularr => soularr unraid config (There's no template for unraid, you need to create on your own by going to Docker > Add Container
Slskd => slskd unraid config
Soularr-lidarr connection (config.ini) => config.ini
Soularr-slskd connection (config.ini) => config.ini
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have questions.
