The Stremio streaming Server Docker image

Run the image

docker run --rm -d -p 11470:11470 -p 12470:12470 stremio/server:latest

If you're running stremio-web locally then you should disable CORS on the server by passing NO_CORS=1 to the env. variables:

docker run --rm -d -p 11470:11470 -p 12470:12470 -e NO_CORS=1 stremio/server:latest

Available ports:

• 11470 - http
• 12470 - https

Env. variables:

FFMPEG_BIN - full path to the ffmpeg binary, on platforms where it cannot be reliably determined by the ffmpeg-static package (e.g. darwin aarch64)

FFPROBE_BIN - full path to the ffprobe binary

APP_PATH - custom application path for storing server settings, certificates, etc

NO_CORS - if set to any value it will disable the CORS checks on the server.

Build image

Docker image can be easily built using the included Dockerfile.

By default, the image has ffmpeg installed with a specific version of ffmpeg-jellyfin, for more information check the Dockerfile.

For the desktop build (currently, the only supported platform) do not pass the BUILD argument.

Example: Build a Docker image with Server v4.20.1

If you're cross-building the image from x86 to arm, you need to either use a QEMU binary or multiarch/qemu-user-static (see below)

• Platform: linux/amd64 (also used for linux/x86_64):

docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64 --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:latest .

• Platform: linux/arm64 (alias of linux/arm64/v8):

docker buildx build --platform linux/arm64 --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:latest .

• Platform linux/arm/v7:

docker buildx build --platform linux/arm/v7 --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:latest .

Cross building

Cross building the image from an x86 to arm architecture, you need to either use QEMU emulation binary or the multiarch/qemu-user-static docker image.

Using QEMU

1. Setup QEMU:

   apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends qemu-user-static binfmt-support
   update-binfmts --enable qemu-arm
   update-binfmts --display qemu-arm
   

   mount binfmt_misc -t binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
   echo ':arm:M::\x7fELF\x01\x01\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x28\x00:\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\x00\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xfe\xff\xff\xff:/usr/bin/qemu-arm-static:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register

2. Build image with attached volume:

• arm/v7 docker buildx build --platform linux/arm/v7 -v /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static:/usr/bin/qemu-arm-static --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:latest .

• arm64 / arm64/v8 docker buildx build --platform linux/arm64 --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:latest .

Using multiarch/qemu-user-static image

For more details check https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static.

docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes

• Build a Docker image with a local server.js found in the root of the folder: Note: By passing an empty VERSION argument you will skip downloading the server.js from AWS before overriding it with your local one.

docker buildx build --build-arg VERSION= -t stremio/server:latest .

Arguments

• VERSION - specify which version of the server.js you'd like to be downloaded for the docker image.
• BUILD - For which platform you'd like to download the server.js.

Other arguments:

• NODE_VERSION - the version which will be included in the image and server.js will be ran with.
• JELLYFIN_VERSION - jellyfin-ffmpeg version, we currently require version <= 4.4.1.

Publishing on Docker Hub

1. Update version tag:

docker buildx build --push --platform linux/arm64,linux/arm/v7,linux/amd64 --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:4.20.1 .

2. Update latest tag:

docker buildx build --push --platform linux/arm64,linux/arm/v7,linux/amd64 --build-arg VERSION=v4.20.1 -t stremio/server:latest .
