Docker container for AirSpy SpyServer, with support for x86 and arm32.
The container provides you with the SpyServer application running on port 5555. It has been tested with an RTL-SDR R820T2 RTL2832U device on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. There is a docker-compose.yml file should you want to see how to correctly mount the USB device.
All configuration for this Docker container is done via environmental variables with sane defaults. To change a setting, simply set the appropriate environment variable.
