codeandClaude Fable 5 340866f9f4 complete all stack READMEs to the 9-section template
Existing content preserved and reordered to the canonical section order;
missing sections generated from each stack's compose data (ports, volumes,
env vars, image links). Fixes copy-paste errors in Dockhand sections
(qbittorrent pointed at archivebox; invokeai/thunderbird said SERVICENAME)
and persistant->persistent typos in gatus.

# spotDL
## Overview
spotDL is a command-line music downloader that finds Spotify tracks on YouTube and downloads them with album art, lyrics, and metadata. This stack runs the optional web UI, providing a browser interface where you can paste Spotify links to download tracks, albums, or playlists.
## Project Details
- **Project Repository:** [https://github.com/spotDL/spotify-downloader](https://github.com/spotDL/spotify-downloader)
- **Container Image:** [spotdl/spotify-downloader](https://hub.docker.com/r/spotdl/spotify-downloader)
- **Web UI Port:** `8800`
## Getting Started
Open http://localhost:8800 in your browser:
1. Find a Spotify track, album, or playlist URL
2. Paste it into the spotDL web UI
3. Click download — spotDL finds the song on YouTube and saves it as an MP3 with full metadata
Downloaded files appear in the `/music` volume.
## Environment Variable Notes
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| `SPOTDL_IMAGE` | Container image (default: `spotdl/spotify-downloader:latest`) |
| `SPOTDL_RESTART` | Restart policy (default: `unless-stopped`) |
| `SPOTDL_PORT` | Published port for the web UI (default: `8800`) |
| `VOL_PATH` | Base path for persistent data volumes (default: `/data`) |
## Volume Notes
| Volume | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `${VOL_PATH:-/data}/spotdl/music` | Downloaded music files |

Requires an external `proxy` network. Create it once with:
```bash
docker network create proxy
```
## Docker Run
```bash
docker run -d \
--name=spotdl \
-p 8800:8800 \
-v ${VOL_PATH:-/data}/spotdl/music:/music \
--network proxy \
--restart unless-stopped \
spotdl/spotify-downloader:latest \
web
