This is a plug-and-play solution bundling Transmission and the most common VPN configurations in a Docker container, ensuring that all torrent traffic goes via an active VPN connection. After configuring it, you just run "docker-compose up" and can then access Transmission via its web UI. It could be nice to have this built into the client, but using a container feels safer.

I’ve been using this for a while now, and it has been working like a charm!

For me, the real power of containers is that all the mistakes I could've made during the install are in ~a single file instead of a long forensic goose chase

This is a great container! Been using this for years. (I've contributed!)

The only downside is that @haugene has gone missing for sometime now, as such there are no firm releases. If you want new features/bug fixes, you have to pull dev, which isn't very ideal. Otherwise the maintainers are doing a great job (shout out to @pkishino!)
