### Clone the CouchPotato GitHub Repo

Run `git clone https://github.com/CouchPotato/CouchPotatoServer.git /opt/CouchPotato`

|
### User Management
|
|
|
|
|
For security it is best to run a service with a specific user and group. You can create one using the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
Add to the `couchpotato` group any users you wish to be able to easily manage or access files downloaded through Deluge, for example:
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
|
|
sudo adduser --system --gecos "Couch Potato Service" --disabled-password --group --home /var/lib/couchpotato couchpotato
|
|
|
|
|
sudo adduser tanshu couchpotato
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
### Autostart with systemd
|
|
|
|
|
Create the file `/etc/systemd/system/couch-potato.service` containing the following:
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
|
|
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/couch-potato.service
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
```
