About

What Jackett does

Jackett is an API bridge for PVR apps (Sonarr, Radarr) that queries multiple torrent trackers and returns standardized results. It supports hundreds of public and private trackers, handles authentication, and exposes Torznab endpoints so your apps need only one integration.

Install Flow

How to self-host Jackett

Jackett can be deployed with standard Docker Compose using the Yantr app catalog. This page collects the basic information searchers usually need first: what Jackett does, which Docker image Yantr uses, default ports, dependencies, and where to find the original compose template.

If you searched for Jackett Docker, Jackett Docker Compose, or self-host Jackett, this page is the direct landing page for that app in Yantr's catalog.

After deployment, Yantr also lets you publish additional ports later from the stack page using Docker-style syntax. Use mappings like 8080:8080 for a fixed host port or just 8080 to let Docker assign a random host port for container port 8080.

Use Cases

Enable automated media downloading by connecting Jackett to Sonarr/Radarr.
Search for torrents across multiple trackers from one interface.
Get fresh releases automatically downloaded to your media library.
