0.9.6,latest
Update Jun 13 2017
The container now removes the apache.pid file and the rtorrent.lock upon startup.
Should fix some issues when restarting the container.
This is a container running Rtorrent with Rutorrent as WebUI. Rutorrent comes with 16 of my favorite plugins.

Simply run
docker run --name rtorrent \
-v /home/kerwood/Downloads:/downloads \
-p 8181:80 \
-p 51001:51001 \
-d kerwood/rtorrent-lxc
Change rtorrent port
By default rtorrent uses port 51001-51001. You can change these ports with the RTORRENT_PORT environmental variable. Remember to publish the port(s) to. And yes, even if you specify only one port, you will have to write it as it was a range, 52002-52002. You can specify a range of ports, but its recommended to only use one. And remember that Docker will make as many iptables entries as there are ports in the range.
docker run --name rtorrent \
-v /home/kerwood/Downloads:/downloads \
-e RTORRENT_PORT=52002-52002 \
-p 52002:52002 \
-p 8181:80 \
-d kerwood/rtorrent-lxc
Authentication
To get authentication use HTUSER and HTPASS.
docker run --name rtorrent \
-v /home/kerwood/Downloads:/downloads \
-e HTUSER=Admin \
-e HTPASS=Passw0rd \
-p 8181:80 \
-p 51001:51001 \
-d kerwood/rtorrent-lxc
Rtorrent watch folder
Rtorrent has a cool feature where it watches a folder for torrent files and starts them automatically. Just mount the volume /watch
docker run --name rtorrent \
-v /home/kerwood/Downloads:/downloads \
-v /home/kerwood/Watch:/watch \
-p 8181:80 \
-p 51001:51001 \
-d kerwood/rtorrent-lxc
Consistent torrents
If you want to make your torrents consistent (being able to create a new container with the same torrents), just mount the volume /home/rtorrent/rtorrent-session
Be sure to make the session directory on the host writable by uid/gid 1000 or by everyone. If rtorrent cannot write to the folder, rtorrent will not start.
When ever you recreate a new container with existing session files, make sure to delete rtorrent.lock in the host session directory before running the new one. Or else rtorrent will fail to start.
docker run --name rtorrent \
-v /home/kerwood/Downloads:/downloads \
-v /home/kerwood/rtorrent-sessions:/home/rtorrent/rtorrent-session \
-p 8181:80 \
-p 51001:51001 \
-d kerwood/rtorrent-lxc
