Newbs guide to using Emby in Docker

[telemarker7 1]

I've just given up trying to get Emby working in Docker (I'm a docker newb) and got it working as a stand alone install on my server in minutes. I'm happy to write a tutorial on how to get things working but the docker hub guide just leaves me at a loss. 

 

I've installed the latest docker and I easily got Portainer up and running. I can manage the pull from the docker hub.

docker pull emby/embyserver:latest

However when faced with the next step I'm at a loss

docker run -d \
    --volume /path/to/programdata:/config \ # This is mandatory
    --volume /path/to/share1:/mnt/share1 \ # To mount a first share
    --volume /path/to/share2:/mnt/share2 \ # To mount a second share
    --device /dev/dri/renderD128 \ # To mount a render node for VAAPI
    --publish 8096:8096 \ # To expose the HTTP port
    --publish 8920:8920 \ # To expose the HTTPS port
    --env UID=1000 \ # The UID to run emby as (default: 2)
    --env GID=100 \ # The GID to run emby as (default 2)
    --env GIDLIST=100 \ # A comma-separated list of additional GIDs to run emby as (default: 2)
    emby/embyserver:latest

I can manage the first line, but what is my path to programdata? I know where my mounts are, but the : syntax separating the source from the mount is confusing. I guess that the VAAPI line doesn't need to change, but after the three volume lines I don't know. The port lines make sense, but someone more newb than me would need help. I can manage the UID and GIDs but once again I'm sure there are plenty who would be stumped.

 

I'm happy to write a guide for the ignorant like me, but I need help getting Emby to work in docker first.

I'm having the same issues so I'm gonna follow this like a hawk. (Also new to docker.)

I'm my case I'm using the Gooby script here. https://github.com/TechPerplexed/Gooby/wiki

 

It's pretty awesome but just will not update Emby at all.

Why not just use the default values that are listed there in the doc?
