Personally, literally some postit notes for my own selfhosted projects

You will need to review all the required variables and configure as you require. But basically, yeah

EDIT - NO

its not just grab and run. From the docs,

This container requires separate postgres and redis instances to run.

If youre looking for a sample docker-compose,

NPM as in nginx and not Node Package Manager?

When you said Jellyfin streaming isn’t working - are you able to actually get to Jellyfin UI and its the stream failing, or you can’t access Jellyfin at all via nginx?

It depends whether a whole season torrent exists or not. If sonarr can identify one thats a whole season, it should download that when you search at season level. If youve searched individual episode at a time, youll get a single one.

You can do an interactive search and iirc specify full season during that search

Check on activity page to see if its stuck on found/downloading/extracting/importing

Check trackers/sources aren’t down

Check in log.txt for exceptions

Like other commenter said, regardless of podman or docker you will need to handle port forwarding, and any firewall changes.

I don’t want anything outside of my control accessing my host
