Container Image: Plex Media Server

Plex Media Server in a Fedora 38 (minimal) based container image without systemd.

Building

docker build -f Containerfile .

Usage

docker run -d --net host --volume $APPDATA:/var/lib/plexmediaserver --volume $LIBRARY:/library ghcr.io/jmanero/plex

By default, the Plex Media Server process runs as root in the container. The image includes a plex user with a system UID/GID; add -u plex to docker run commands to run the service without root privileges.

The current image build should provision a plex user with a UID and GID of 999/999. This can be verified with the following:

% docker run --rm --pull always --user plex --entrypoint id ghcr.io/jmanero/plex
uid=999(plex) gid=999(plex) groups=999(plex)
