Set up Jellyfin and Emby - docker-compose

I am showing how Emby and Jellyfin can be hosted locally with docker and what to expect from it.

First I need two docker-compose.yaml files, one for Jellyfin:

Also Dockerhub

version: "3"

services:
  jellyfin:
    image: "jellyfin/jellyfin:latest"
    container_name: jellyfin
    user: 1000:1000
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 8097:8096
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - ./cache:/cache
      - ./media:/media
      # - ./media/share1:/mnt/movies
      # - ./media/share2:/mnt/music

And one for Emby:

Here we go again, running our own services like a boss.I’ve tried out some mail server solutions namely docker-mailserver and citadel.

In the following I want to name and discuss features, set-up procedures and cons.

Citadel

Is easy to set up because it comes with its own installer, completely handling software installation and filesystem tasks for you.

It also has an interactive graphical installation walking you through the setup process, which makes this process even faster.
