services:

    transmission-music:
        image: strm/transmission
		ports:
			- "8090:9091"
        volumes:
            - /music-downloaded:/downloads
            - /music-incomplete:/incomplete
        environment:

            - TRANSMISSION_DOWNLOAD_QUEUE=1

	gmusic-uploader:
		image: strm/gmusic-uploader
		volumes:
			- /music-downloaded:/data
		environment:
			- UPLOADER_MAC=00:00:00:00:00:00
			- AUTH_TOKEN=A_VERY_VERY_LONG_STRING

Configuration

There are two variables:

• UPLOADER_MAC - Set any valid MAC address, is required by the library and by the protocol to authenticate you
• AUTH_TOKEN - Is your authentication token

How to get the AUTH_TOKEN ?

This is the token to connect to your Google Music account, you will need to generate it only once, run a shell in the container as following

docker run --rm -it --entrypoint /bin/bash strm/gmusic-uploader

Then run

/upload.py --cred /auth ; cat /auth.cred | base64

You will be asked to access an URL, where you will have to approve this application to access your account. After that, paste the code returned in the console. The result will be a Base64 encoded string (representing the key file), in just one line, use it as the value for AUTH_TOKEN variable

WARNING

• Don't download pirated music
• Your local music will be deleted after it is successfuly uploaded
