I struggled with this for a little while, too, because I was completely new to both Docker and unRAID. But I just got it working and I wanted to share so that hopefully it would help you, too!
I'm going to write out all steps in hopes that this might also help someone who hasn't gotten as far as you already have.
But you can skip down to step 7.
----
These steps assume that you already have a library. Mine is set up so that YAC Reader Library and YAC Reader Library Server are both referencing the same directory/library on a share within the unRAID array. So my YAC Reader Library on my Mac handles adding comics, and the Server Docker dishes 'em out.
1. First thing's first, follow
unRAID's directions
on getting Docker up and running
2. Select "Add Container" from the Docker tab
"Add Container" Screen:
3a. Give it a name (What it is doesn't matter much, but don't use spaces, I think that was my issue at first)
3b. Set the Repository to: muallin/yacreaderlibrary-server-docker
3c. I have my network type set to host. Honestly, not sure what this setting is, but Plex is set to a host, so I followed.
Steps 4 and 5 are to map the path used within the app in the Docker container ("/comics") to a real path in your array.
4. Select "Add another path, port, variable, label or device"
"Add Configuration" Screen:
5a. Config type should be "path"
5b. Name doesn't matter, I used "Comics"
5c. Container Path should be /comics (
important: all lowercase)
5d. Host Path is wherever your comics library is stored on your array
5e. Access Mode should be Read/Write
5f. Select Add.
6. Click Apply
If everything went swimmingly, you should see a readout that results in a success message. Hurray! it's up and running. Now we need a library.
7. Click on ">_ Terminal" up in the upper right of the unRAID menu bar (not the console for the docker)
8 In the terminal, enter the following:
Code:
docker exec <name of your container from step 3a> YACReaderLibraryServer add-library <library-name> /comics
You should get a success message if everything works correctly. You can then connect to the server from the IP address for your server box and port 8080.
To update your library on the server, enter the following into the unRAID Terminal:
Code:
docker exec <name of your container from step 3a> YACReaderLibraryServer update-library /comics
you'll notice that in both terminal commands, you're using the /comics path referenced in the Docker container, NOT the real path in your array, this is important to remember.

Hopefully that helps! I'll do my best to help with any other questions you might have, but I'm learning this along with you, haha.
