Setting Up Bazarr on Nébulaura
Bazarr is a companion application to Sonarr and Radarr that manages and downloads subtitles based on your preferences. Define your requirements for TV shows or movies, and Bazarr takes care of the rest.

To install Bazarr, run the following command:

Configuration
Streamlined Setup
If Sonarr and/or Radarr were installed before Bazarr, the configuration process is streamlined, as connections to these apps are pre-configured. You'll only need to configure your subtitle providers.
First Run
With Sonarr/Radarr Installed
If you have Sonarr or Radarr installed, the setup wizard will be skipped. You’ll need to configure your subtitle providers manually:
- Go to Settings > Subtitles.
- Select a provider and enter your credentials.
- Scroll down to Subtitle Languages and add your preferred languages.
- Click Save. Bazarr is now ready to go!
Without Sonarr/Radarr Installed
If Sonarr or Radarr were not installed, the setup wizard will guide you through the process:
- On the General page, ensure the URL Base field is set to
/bazarr/
(including the leading and trailing slashes). Click Next. - On the Subtitles page, select a provider and set at least one language. You must complete these steps to proceed.
Connecting to *darr Apps
If Sonarr or Radarr weren’t set up when Bazarr was installed, you can manually configure the connection:
Sonarr Configuration
- IP:
<subnet IP>
- Port:
<sonarr port>
- Base URL:
/sonarr
- API Key:
<sonarr API>
Radarr Configuration
- IP:
<subnet IP>
- Port:
<radarr port>
- Base URL:
/radarr
- API Key:
<radarr API>
Tips for Configuration
Subnet IP
To get your subnet IP, SSH into your server and run:
cat ~/.install/subnet.lock
API Key and Port
Forgot your API key or port? Use these commands to retrieve them:
Sonarr:
cat ~/.config/Sonarr/config.xml | grep -e <Api -e <Port
Radarr:
cat ~/.config/Radarr/config.xml | grep -e <Api -e <Port
