breakyboy/seafile repository overview

⁠seafile-docker

A repo for building a personal sqlite3-backed Seafile instance

⁠Configuration

You'll want to change the environment variables under the "Options" section of the Dockerfile:

# Options
ENV SEAFILE_SERVER_NAME MySeafile
ENV SEAFILE_URI localhost
ENV SEAFILE_DATA_DIR /seafile/seafile-data
ENV SEAHUB_ADMIN_EMAIL [email protected]
ENV SEAHUB_ADMIN_PASS baz

⁠Installation

Build your image:

docker build -t foo/seafile

Run as a daemon:

docker run -p 8000:8000 -p 8082:8082 -p 10001:10001 -p 12001:12001 -d foo/seafile

⁠Logging

Seafile's startup scripts don't provide any logging, so to both keep the container running as a daemon and provide a barebones look into if the Seafile processes are actually running, I provided some basic output to the container's stdout.

Starting seafile server, please wait ...
Seafile server started

Done.

Starting seahub at port 8000 ...

Seahub is started

Done.

Running Seafile processes:
  PID COMMAND
   28 seafile-control
   30 ccnet-server
   32 seaf-server
  104 python2.7
  107 python2.7
  108 python2.7
  109 python2.7

That will be the extent of it unless the script detects a change in the running process list. In that case, it will alert that a change was detected, and will show the "Running Seafile processes" again.

⁠Development

If you want to know why I built this the way I did, and why I didn't just go with any of the existing Seafile images up on Docker Hub, you can read about it here:
