A dockerized version of PokéSAG by @JoppyFurr!

To run a full stack of pokesag-docker (including a database), you can use the following docker-compose file.

services:
  db:
    image: postgres:15
    container_name: pokesag_db
    environment:
      POSTGRES_USER: pokesag
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: pokesag
      TZ: Pacific/Auckland
    volumes:
      - pokesag_db:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    restart: always

  receiver:
    image: ghcr.io/dmptrluke/pokesag-receiver:latest
    container_name: pokesag_receiver
    environment:
      TZ: Pacific/Auckland
    devices:
      - /dev/swradio0:/dev/swradio0
      - /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb

  pokesag_db:

You can also choose to use an external database by omitting the db container and using the DB_HOST/DB_NAME/DB_USER/DB_PASS environment variables on the web and receiver containers.

Step by Step

If you're new to Docker, below is a step by step guide to running PokéSAG in Docker.

First of all, you'll need to install Docker. Head to the official documentation and select your Linux distro under the "Server" section and follow the instructions on the page.

After that, create a new folder to work in to keep things tidy. In that folder create a file called docker-compose.yml with the text in the previous section, and save it. If you just want a basic install of PokéSAG, you won't need to edit anything.

Finally, run docker compose up to start PokéSAG! This will run in the foreground. When you're happy with how everything is working, you can use docker compose up -d to run everything in the background.

To update to the latest version, just run docker compose pull and then docker compose up -d again.
