I thought it might be useful to have a general docker/container thread.
I have slowly fallen more and more in love with containers (I run them on my Mikrotik as well as on my media server).

On my Mikrotik I run Adguard Home and on my server (located on a different network) I run Adguard Home (for those users), Overseerr, Tautulli and NGINX Proxy Manager. And yes, I am a masochist... I run Docker Desktop on Windows.

So what containers are you guys running?
 
Gitea, PostreSQL, MS SQL Server and YouTrack on my home lab.
ASP Net Core for our various services at the office.
 
A lot, some highlights include:
  • Adguard Home - recently moved from PiHole.
  • Postgres for database stuff
  • GitLab, so I can keep my code away from you all
  • Gitlab runners - for ci/cd things
  • SWAG for https
  • cloudflared - for things that need external access.
  • unifi controller
  • watchtower for auto updates
  • sonarr, sabnzbd, radarr, qbittorrent etc.
  • jellyfin
  • netbootxyz for booting over the network
  • mariadb, mongo-db & elasticsearch as dependencies for other services...
mostly running on protected ZFS storage :giggle:

something is telling me a beautiful little NAS runs this all for you.

This is why I made this thread... I didn't know about watchtower but now I will be using it after I read up on it.
 
Server #1
VM 1
7x *arr
portainer_agent
kavita
sabnzbd
ombi
rdtclient
emby

VM 2:
nextcloud

VM 3 (switched off):
homeassistant supervised as a vm (so technically not a docker)

VM 4 (mostly off):
metabase

Baby Server #2, so no VMs
nginx-proxy-manager
goaccess-for-nginxproxymanager
adguardhome
watchtower

Server #3 (I rarely switch this on these days):
VM 1:
A full BABY 'virtual' hadoop cluster

VM 2:
emoncms

Subbed, I have about 15 or 16 containers running on a Tiny. I’ll post up deets a little later, but it's nothing out of the ordinary

Two services that I used to have on Docker but moved to LXC containers, are Adguard Home and Unifi Network Server.
you know... you and containers might be the reason that I move my media server over to linux. But I will be damned if I do it next year since I am getting married. I will just have to move everything to containers and have them running in Windows... just need to figure out how to give the containers access to my windows server drives.

Because Windoze, create your shares and access it as SAMBA shares from the container(s).
Or just map the folder(s) to the container(s), not sure if this can be done using your unfortunate OS choice

ok, will try that.

Yeah, I am a Windows guy unfortunately, but I run two Debian VMs because the Windows versions of those solutions suck.

It should be easy enough to mount the shares as SMB in Linux, and then just point the containers to it with a mount point.

Take note that I said should, so expect some headaches with NTFS compatibility, permissions and deep delves with chown and chmod commands :laugh:

I have OpenMediaVault running on Proxmox, with a 5TB HDD connected via passthrough (formatted to ext4). Then on OMV I have the majority of my containers setup. The only stuff I have as LXC containers are my 'network' containers so that if I lose or fiddle with the OMV VM, nothing on the network side should be affected.

All of this is running on a Tiny with a core i5-8500T, 8GB DDR4 RAM and a 250GB nVME drive.
