Arr, my friends. I have an old laptop already running some servoces on docker 24/7 at home and looking to extend it’s functionalities to become torrent downloader with media server for TV. Need VPN for obvious reasons.
I was wondering if there are already all-in-one solutions to just run docler compose file and get 2 containers: one running torrent client with all traffic via VPN in another?
I plan to use Mullvad VPN.
Upd. Updated title to highlight it’s a request. Not sure why getting downvotes, please elaborate :)
I recently went through setting this up. I can give you a base compose.yaml based on the one I have
For the wireguard config, you would throw your .conf file to /path/to/wireguard/config, like so: /path/to/wireguard/config/wg0.conf
This setup assumes you have ipv6 working and enabled. The wg0.conf would also have the VPNs ipv6 address. I use Mullvad too btw.
You can access Qbittorrent’s web UI through http://localhost:8090.
I’d like to note that the image I use for Qbittorrent has support built in for VPN, but with the setup I have I basically have the wireguard container with its network, and multiple containers on that same network. In theory it should work with other bittorrent clients.
And the docker images for reference:

Don‘t run privileged images! Drop all CAPS, enable no-new-privileged, use non-privileged users only.
