Threafin Setup Guide

This is my original Threafin which is responsible for managing linked IPTV files and EPGBest in MediaCore.

Threadfin Setup Documentation

Container Configuration

The Threadfin container is configured as follows:

  • Container Name: fyb3roptik-threadfin-1
  • Container ID: dd0fa76ce2236f496d3826e1fcbd9880c576f2a540920225c13a8981ec43afd3 (this is due to change)
  • Image: fyb3roptik/threadfin:latest
  • Port Mapping: 34400/tcp → 34401

File System Layout

Docker Container

The Threadfin application is installed inside the Docker container with the following directory structure:

  • Home Directory: /home/threadfin
    • Binary Files: /home/threadfin/bin
    • Configuration: /home/threadfin/conf
    • Cache: /home/threadfin/cache
    • Temporary Files: /tmp/threadfin

Volume Mounts

The container has a volume mount configured:

  • Source: /volume3/Data2
  • Destination: /Docker
  • Mode: rw (read-write)

However, the Docker directory appears to be empty, suggesting that the application may not be using this volume for persistent storage as expected.

Accessing Configuration Files

To access the Threadfin configuration files:

  1. SSH into your Synology NAS
  2. Execute a shell inside the container: 
    docker exec -it dd0fa76ce2236f496d3826e1fcbd9880c576f2a540920225c13a8981ec43afd3 (yours is different) /bin/sh
  3. Navigate to the configuration directory: 
    ls -la /home/threadfin/conf

Important Environment Variables

The container has the following environment variables set:

  • PATH: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/home/threadfin/bin
  • THREADFIN_BIN: /home/threadfin/bin
  • THREADFIN_CONF: /home/threadfin/conf
  • THREADFIN_HOME: /home/threadfin
  • THREADFIN_TEMP: /tmp/threadfin
  • THREADFIN_CACHE: /home/threadfin/cache
  • THREADFIN_UID: 31337
  • THREADFIN_GID: 31337
  • THREADFIN_USER: threadfin

Functional Configuration:

This theradfin is configured by using the direct link provided by your IPTV service provider for both m3u and the EPG guide XML data.

With this solution you can also use EPGBest to filter a m3u or EPG data

Notes

  • The configuration files are stored within the container at /home/threadfin/conf, but this setup uses the IPTV provider supplied link instead.
  • For future container recreations, you may need to manually back up and restore the configuration from within the container
