docker-HTPC Manager

A nice and easy way to get a HTPC Manager instance up and running using docker. For help on getting started with docker see the official getting started guide. For more information on HTPC Manager and check out it's website.

Building docker-htpcmanager

Running this will build you a docker image with the latest version of both docker-htpcmanager and HTPC Manager itself.

docker build -t captnbp/docker-htpcmanager git://github.com/captnbp/docker-htpcmanager.git

Running HTPC Manager

You can run this container with:

sudo docker run -d -p 8085:8085 -v /myconfigfolder/userdata:/srv/htpc-manager/userdata captnbp/docker-htpcmanager

From now on when you start/stop docker-htpcmanager you should use the container id with the following commands. To get your container id, after you initial run type sudo docker ps and it will show up on the left side followed by the image name which is captnbp/docker-htpcmanager:latest.

sudo docker start <container_id>
sudo docker stop <container_id>

Notes on the run command

• -v is the volume you are mounting -v host_dir:docker_dir
• `-d allows this to run cleanly as a daemon, remove for debugging
• -p is the port it connects to, -p=host_port:docker_port`
