# unRAID Walkthrough
Thankfully, getting Plex Meta Manager working on unRAID is a fairly simple task. unRAID works mostly with docker containers, so the pre-built container available on docker hub works perfectly with a little configuration.
To install a container from docker hub, you will need community applications - a very popular plugin for unRAID servers. If you don't already have this installed, you can install it [here](https://forums.unraid.net/topic/38582-plug-in-community-applications/)
## Basic Installation
1. Head to the `Apps` tab of unRAID (Community Applications), and search `plex-meta-manager` in the upper right search box. No results will show, because plex-meta-manager has not been added to community applications yet. No need to fear, however, because the pre-built docker container is on docker hub. Click `Click Here To Get More Results From DockerHub`.
2. Click the download icon on the `plex meta manager` container by `meisnate12`.
3. Create your [Docker values](../../home/environmental) using `Add another Path, Port, Variable, Label or Device`. Example config:
| Config Type | Name | Key | Value | Container Path | Host Path | Access Mode | Description |
|:------------|:--------------------|:--------------|:-------|:---------------|:--------------------------------------|:------------|:----------------------------------------------------|
| Variable | Time to Run | `PMM_TIME` | `6:00` | N/A | N/A | N/A | Time to update each day. Format: HH:MM |
| Variable | Divider Character | `PMM_DIVIDER` | `=` | N/A | N/A | N/A | The character that divides the sections |
| Variable | Screen Width | `PMM_WIDTH` | `100` | N/A | N/A | N/A | An integer between 90 and 300 |
| Path | Config Storage Path | N/A | N/A | `/config` | `/mnt/user/appdata/plex-meta-manager` | Read/Write | Translation from docker container path to host path |
* Full list of docker values can be found on the [Run Commands & Environmental Variables Page](../../home/environmental).
* If you wish to enable one-time [Run]([Run Commands & Environmental Variables Page](../environmental.md#run)), add `-r` to `Post Arguments` by enabling Advanced View in the top right of unRAID.
* The Image below shows the above values in the unRAID WebUI.

4. Hit `Apply`, and allow unRAID to download the docker container.
5. Navigate to the `Docker` tab in unRAID, and stop the `plex-meta-manager` container if it has auto-started.
6. Create `config.yml` and `library.yml` files as-per the [documentation](../../config/configuration) in the Host Path you set (/mnt/user/appdata/plex-meta-manager in the example)
7. Once finished, run the container. Voila! Logs are located in `yourhostpath/logs`.
## Advanced Installation (Authenticating Trakt or MyAnimeList)
Due to how unRAID handles docker containers, it can be a little confusing at first to enable Trakt, MyAnimeList, and other sources. At this time, these sources require you to follow through to a URL, and provide a code or link to Plex Meta Manager. unRAID doesn't have a built-in way to interact with the terminals of docker containers, so a workaround must be used:
1. Stop the Plex Meta Manager docker container if it's currently running.
2. Follow the instructions for either [Trakt](../../config/trakt) or [MyAnimeList](../../config/myanimelist), and add the relevant values to your `config.yml`
3. Edit the `Time to Run` variable to reflect a time that is NOT the current time. We don't want the script to be running right now. Set `Run` to `false` if you've chosen to add that variable. Then, start the container.
4. Click the Terminal button in the upper right corner of the unRAID WebUI (`>_`)
5. Run `docker exec -it plex-meta-manager /bin/bash`
Note: this name is case-sensitive. If this gives you an error like "Error: No such container: plex-meta-manager"; check the container config to see if you've named it something like "Plex-Meta-Manager", If that's the case, change the name in the command to match your container.
6. Run `ls` to make sure you're in the same directory as `plex_meta_manager.py`. If you don't see the script, run `cd /`
7. Run `python plex_meta_manager.py -r`, and watch as the script comes to life.
8. You'll now notice, as per the [configuration documentation](../../config/configuration) on these sources, the script will ask you to click a URL and return an input. Go ahead and do so in this terminal window.
9. Once finished, and the script succeeds in connecting to your source, press `Ctrl + C` to cancel the script - and close out of the terminal window. Go ahead and stop the docker container, restore your container settings to your original preferences (restore `Time to Run`), and start the container.
