danielquinn/aletheia repository overview

This is just a simple way to run Aletheia⁠ without having to install exiftool & ffmpeg on your local system. However, as Aletheia operates directly on files, using this container introduces additional complexity as you need to mount the directory containing your target file(s) as a shared volume.

For example, if you have a file in /tmp/for-verification, you need to mount that path as a volume for Aletheia to be able to see & verify it:

$ docker run \
  --rm \
  -v /tmp/for-verification:/tmp/for-verification \
  -t danielquinn/aletheia \
  aletheia verify /tmp/for-verification/file.jpg

Additionally, if you want Aletheia to sign stuff, you'll probably want to mount a path on your host machine as Aletheia's config directory, lest you lose your private key as soon as the docker instance is killed:

$ docker run \
  --rm \
  -v /home/my_user/.config/aletheia:/home/app/.config/aletheia \
  -v /tmp/for-signing:/tmp/for-signing \
  -t danielquinn/aletheia \
  aletheia sign /tmp/for-signing/file.jpg
