Hello everyone!

I'm thrilled to be back here again! In case you're not familiar with YAMS, YAMS (Yet Another Media Server) is a powerful script that simplifies the installation of a comprehensive media server. It includes all the essential *arr apps, along with exceptionally detailed documentation. In just a few minutes, you can have a fully functional media server with Sonarr, Radarr, Jellyfin, qBittorrent, and more! To learn more, you can visit the following links:

And now, I'm excited to announce the release of YAMS v2!

What's New in YAMS v2?

  • YAMS v2 introduces a new command: yams upgrade, which allows YAMS to upgrade itself.
  • Adding custom containers is now easier. You can find a step-by-step tutorial here: Add your own containers.
  • On the code side, the documentation has seen significant improvements. If you're interested in how YAMS works under the hood, you can explore the full code documentation here: YAMS Code Documentation.

Upgrading to YAMS v2 is entirely optional! YAMS v1 will continue to work and receive support.

Starting now, every new YAMS installation is automatically YAMS v2!

In other news, I've also established a dedicated forum for all things YAMS related! After noticing that many users were encountering similar issues, we concluded that a forum would greatly enhance troubleshooting, making it more accessible, searchable, and enjoyable.

Feel free to visit the new forums at YAMS Forum. Don't hesitate to drop by and introduce yourself!

For those interested in YAMS, there's a comprehensive tutorial on how to configure all the services together: Services Configuration Tutorial. The tutorial is designed to be platform-agnostic, so even if you're not using YAMS, you might find it useful!

Thank you for taking the time to read this, whether you're already a loyal YAMS user or are considering becoming a new YAMS enthusiast! Your feedback and insights are highly valuable to me, and I'm eager to hear what you think!

If yes why ?

Because it makes deploying a bunch of different services like this very simple and reliable to run?
