How to Install Conreq on Your Synology NAS

Conreq is an application for managing requests for your media library. It integrates with your existing services such as Sonarr and Radarr. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Conreq on your Synology NAS using Docker.

💡Note: This guide works perfectly with the latest Conreq v0.20.51 release.

STEP 2

Install Container Manager via Synology “Package Center”. If you run an older DSM version (under 7.2), search for Docker instead of Container Manager.

STEP 3

Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it conreq. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

STEP 4

Go to Control Panel / Task Scheduler / Create / Scheduled Task / User-defined script. Follow the instructions in the image below.

STEP 5

Once you click on User-defined script, a new window will open. Follow the instructions below:

General: In the Task field type in Install Conreq. Uncheck the “Enabled” option. Select root User.
Schedule: Select Run on the following date then select “Do not repeat“.
Task Settings: Check “Send run details by email“, add your email then copy paste the code below in the Run command area. After that, click OK.

docker run -d --name=conreq \
-p 5347:8000 \
-e PUID=1026 \
-e PGID=100 \
-e TZ=Europe/Bucharest \
-v /volume1/docker/conreq:/config \
--restart always \
ghcr.io/roxedus/conreq

Note: Before you paste the code above in the Run command area below, change the value numbers for PUID and PGID with your own values. (Follow my step by step guide on how to do this.)
Note: Before you paste the code above in the Run command area below, change the value for TZ. (Select your current Time Zone from this list.)

STEP 6

After you click OK, type in your DSM Password then click Submit. Follow the instructions in the image below.

STEP 7

After you click Submit on STEP 6, select your “Install Conreq” Task then click the “Run” tab. You will be asked to run Install Conreq – click OK. Follow the instructions in the image below.
