Docker - Whats inside your container?

[PsyWulf]

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

Nah it's not that bad these days

Mount your path on the host
sudo mount -t cifs -o rw,vers=3.0,credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,file_mode=0700,dir_mode=0700,uid=1000,gid=1000 //server/files /mnt/shares/server/files

Then just add the mount as a volume in docker - all you need to make sure of is your credentials file is correct,and the container is running same uid that has access to the mount,and your NTFS user has the permissions for the SMB share

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.

you know the problem with docker is that it makes me use copilot, and then this whole LLM AI idea starts to appeal to me... a lot.

And it turns out that mounting your local windows folder as the volume is as easy as: "C:/Downloads:/downloads"
and then NZBget sees all the contents of C:/Downloads in /downloads.
Sometimes this container **** is too damn simple for its own good.

Lets us all raise a glass for the beauty that is docker compose.

@PhireSide Are you happy with yourself?
Qbittorrent, NZBget, and Sonarr are now all in containers. Just need to do add all the letters of the alphabet to the Radarr compose file before I can get it to see all my movies.

What upsets me is how bloody simple the networking works between the containers... Just put the name of the container and the other container instantly knows its there!!! Like excuse me! I did not spend the last 25+ years of my life learning this black magic we collectively call IT, to have my life made so ****ing easy that it requires no brain cells at all to get two different systems to see each other. I am irked.

One of us...one of us...one of us!

Do yourself a favour and install Bazarr as well. Having all your items subtitled (especially with the horrible sound mixing of media lately) is a godsend nowadays.

There is one thing that I want to get working but I just couldn't was Zerotier. I couldn't get it to let traffic breakout to the internet

I tried Zerotier a while back and also battled.

I ended up installing Tailscale that works brilliantly.

EDIT: You could also try Twingate

Two services that I used to have on Docker but moved to LXC containers, are Adguard Home and Unifi Network Server.

Lxc has its advantages.

 

[killerbyte]

So this is the final list before I go to bed...

Adguard Home
Watchtower
NGINX Proxy Manager
Radarr
Sonarr
Bazarr
Jackett
Flaresolverr
Tautulli
Overseerr
Qbittorrent
NZBget

 

[RedViking]

Plex on my Synology which doesn't support Plex. But haven't used it much.

Can I run Qbittorrent on Synology ?

 

[kolaval]

Portainer - https://www.portainer.io/
Mongo
Postgress
RabbitMQ
Supabase
Minecraft server
Various apps that I have written

Supabase is a cloud service?

They offer it as such for their business model but the software is open source and you can self-host it.

Also Netbird is the nee hotness for mesh VPNs. Very similar to Tailscale but all software is open source and can be self hosted. Plenty of videos from various Tech Tubers on the set up.

Yes but you can host it yourself as well, which is useful when developing stuff

Host Supabase on your own infrastructure.

Netbird on Mikrotik is not very mature it seems, so it is of no use to me.

You can run netbird on containers or in a vps.

yes, but the issue is that the container on Mikrotik has limitations which makes it useless to me.

 

[schuits]

My containers come and go depending on which project I'm working on.
Currently only postgres.

On WSL I'm running lighttpd, fr24feed and dump1090-mutability.

 

[InvisibleJim]

Currently running (Docker in an LXC container)
Dockge
Change Detection
IT-Tools
Netbird
Ollama
OpenWebui
Stirling PDF

In a separate VM I have KASM

All these are for testing and breaking. I don't run any services I really use except that I do have PiHole running in an LXC which I'm planning to move to Docker on a Pi - I might start playing with HA and/or add Octoprint on the PI
