Simple rsync server running in a docker container
This is based off of https://github.com/nabeken/docker-volume-container-rsync with a few modifications. That project provides a volume for a docker mount, where as this provides just a simple, unauthenticated rsync server.
This is meant to be a temporary, disposable rsync storage. Do NOT use for backups.
Launch the container via docker:
docker run -d -p 873 -e "USERNAME:myuser" -e "PASSWORD:mypassword" bfosberry/rsync
You can connect to rsync server inside a container like this:
$ rsync rsync://<docker>:<port>/
data data directoryTo sync:
$ rsync -avP /path/to/dir rsync://<docker>:<port>/data/In default, rsync server accepts a connection only from 192.168.0.0/16 and 172.12.0.0/12 for security reasons.
You can override via an environment variable like this:
$ docker run -d -p 873 -e ALLOW='10.0.0.0/8 x.x.x.x/y' bfosberry/rsync
