Run the installer, select all the defaults except for the section called "Adjusting your PATH environment" - here select "Git from the command line and also from 3rd-party software".
Complete the rest of the installation with the default options.
For shell access while the container is running run docker exec -it tautulli bash.
Parameters
Parameters are split into two halves separated by a colon. The left side represents the host and the right side the container. Example: -p external:internal - This shows the port mapping from internal to external of the container. So -p 8181:8181 would expose port 8181 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8181. <host_ip>:8181">http://<host_ip>:8181 would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 8181.
User / Group Identifiers:
When using data volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. To avoid this issue you can specify the user PUID and group PGID. Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify. In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001. To find yours use id user as below:
Synology
You can easily install Tautulli on Synology devices using Docker. Depending on your Synology device you may or may not have Docker pre-installed. If your device is 'unsupported' (i.e. Docker is not pre-installed or downloadable through the Synology Package Center), follow the guide here to install it. Once you have Docker on your Synology, add the official image for Tautulli. This is done by opening the Docker program and searching the Registry tab for Tautulli. At the time of this write-up, the interface looked like this. The official image is named tautulli/tautulli and it may not be the first option listed. Double-click the image entry to download it. Once downloaded you will see the image show up under your Image tab. Before installing the image you will need some additional user information. Depending on your preference, you can create a unique user on your system for Tautulli, or you can use the default admin user created during your first start-up. You will need the UID and GID of whatever user you have chosen. The steps to obtain these are as follows:
SSH into your system using PuTTy (if on Windows) or through Terminal (if on Linux or Mac). Be sure to use the appropriate username when logging in.
If you're having trouble with this, make sure that SSH is enabled in your Terminal and SNMP settings in your Synology Control Panel
Type id
This will return a line with the uid of that user and their primary group gid.
Next, you will want to make sure that you have the prerequisite folders for Tautulli to save config files to. Here's an example general/simplified setup: Optional: If you want to be able to view the Plex logs inside Tautulli you will need to add the folder containing those logs to the Tautulli container. You will likely not see the Plex folder under your shares. This is because (for some reason) the folder is hidden by default. To unhide the folder:
Go to Control Panel - Shared Folders
Edit the Plex share.
Add your username as R permission
Save the changes
Obviously, the important folder here is /root/docker/tautulli/config. You should ensure that the permissions on this folder allows the user you picked earlier, and will set later, has full rights to the folder. You can fix the permissions by right-clicking on your folders and going to Properties and then the Permission tab. Assign the appropriate user/group Full Control and if necessary Enable the option Apply to this folder, sub-folders and files. You may need to restart your DiskStation for the change to take effect. Next, back in the Docker window, double click your tautulli/tautulli:latest image to open the Create Container window. On the first menu, name your container whatever you want as long as it is identifiable to you. Next, click Advanced Settings to open a new window. Next, follow the instructions for the following tabs:
Advanced Settings:
Enable Enable auto-restart
If you wish, create a shortcut on the desktop
Volume:
Click Add Folder and add the following paths and corresponding Mount Paths. Only enable read-only on the Plex logs mount.
Port Settings:
Change the Local Port to 8181 to match the Container Port. For some reason the default vale of Auto almost never works.
Environment:
Add the following variables and their respective value
Finalize the container by applying the advanced settings and then following the remaining prompts. If your container doesn't immediately run, launch it from the Docker window and give it a few dozen seconds to start completely. Your Tautulli installation should now be accessible via port 8181 on your DiskStation's local IP address. You can find this under Control Panel -> Network -> Network Interface under LAN1 or LAN2. For example if it shows 192.168.0.5, then Tautulli can be found at http://192.168.0.5:8181/.
