Docker Spotweb image

An image running ubuntu/16.10 Linux and Spotweb.

Requirements

You need a seperate MySQL / MariaDB server. This can of course be a (linked) docker container but also a dedicated database server.

Usage

docker run --restart=always -d -p 80:80 \
	--hostname=spotweb \
	--name=spotweb \
	-v <hostdir_where_config_will_persistently_be_stored>:/config \
	-e TZ='Europe/Amsterdam'
	-e SPOTWEB_DB_TYPE=pdo_mysql \
	-e SPOTWEB_DB_HOST=<database_server_hostname> \
	-e SPOTWEB_DB_NAME=spotweb \
	-e SPOTWEB_DB_USER=spotweb \
	-e SPOTWEB_DB_PASS=spotweb \
	jgeusebroek/spotweb

You should now be able to reach the spotweb interface on port 80, and you can configure Spotweb. The install URL: 'http://yourhost/install.php'

Automatic retreiving of new spots

To enable automatic retreiving, you need to setup a cronjob on the docker host.

*/15 * * * * docker exec spotweb /usr/bin/php /var/www/spotweb/retrieve.php >/dev/null 2>&1

This example will retrieve new spots every 15 minutes.

Updates

The container will try to auto-update the database when a newer version image is released.

Environment variables

• TZ The timezone the server is running in. Defaults to Europe/Amsterdam.
• SPOTWEB_DB_TYPE Database type. Use pdo_mysql for MySQL.
• SPOTWEB_DB_HOST The hostname / IP of the database server.
• SPOTWEB_DB_NAME The database used for spotweb.
• SPOTWEB_DB_USER The database server username.
• SPOTWEB_DB_PASS The database server password.
