Support Docker

Louies89 opened this issue · 5 comments

Hi,
Thank you for the wonderful work.
I am trying to run this in docker container. But unable to do so.

Can anyone can help please?

Could you elaborate on your setup? Is it supposed to backup contents within the docker container while also running within the container?
Also: what seems to be the problem exactly?

Yes if we volume mapping in docker it can take files from the volume mapped to specific backup service. Docker is easy to maintain and easy to spin up. So it is better to have Docker option too.

@Louies89
could you show me what the problem is? Do you get any kind of output?

Hi,
I was implementing it 2/3 weeks ago, but later I moved to Duplicati, So now I cannot provide any info about the problem.

But my suggestion is, Dockerise the library, so that people can use directly, instead of they trying to Dockerise it.

I feel, when we make a library we do lot of research and make it available to public, so the user of the library should not do same research make it workable.

So I suggest try to Dockersise so people shall directly use the library.

EDIT:
Now I remember, I don't have enough experience with Docker and Python, PyPi etc.
So I was having hard time to make all these things Dockerised. So if you have less experience with Docker mention in Documentation, so that some one can help.

Well...
a) it's not a library, it's a command line utility.
b) thanks for the suggestion but I currently don't care about Docker.
c) "so that people can use directly" - they can, just pip install runrestic, I think that's pretty straight forward.

cheers.
