Samba Docker container for Raspberry Pi

Samba Docker container for Raspberry PI

This project builds a Raspberry PI Docker container embedding a Samba server. This container allows you to share files over network using SMB protocol, used by Windows clients.

Build instructions

Install Docker on a Raspberry PI host.

Build a Docker image using this command:

$ make

A Docker image named 'rpi-samba' is now available. Create a new Docker container from this image:

$ sudo docker create --name rpi-samba --restart always -v $PWD/public:/data/share -p 445:445 -p 139:139 -p 137:137/udp -p 138:138/udp rpi-samba

You are now ready to start this container:

$ sudo docker start rpi-samba

The Docker container exports a public network share named 'Public', linked to a local directory using a Docker volume. The Samba share is using the directory /data/share in the Docker image. Tweak the command line argument -v /your/local/dir:/data/share to set a specific directory.
