odclive/libretime-docker repository overview

⁠libretime-docker (based on libretime 3.0.0-alpha9)

One way to get libretime to work within a docker container.

This project is only here to simplify the installation of libretime in a single docker container.

⁠installation

Simply run docker pull odclive/libretime-docker:latest to download the image.

To run a standalone none persisting container (for testing purposes) you can use docker run -p 80:80 -p 8000:8000 -p 8001:8001 --name=libretime odclive/libretime-docker:latest.

To run a persisting container, it is strongly recommended you use a docker-compose.yml file coupled with a .env file (you can find an example for both of these in the project directory https://github.com/kessibi/libretime-docker⁠).

Once set up, run docker-compose up. Visiting http://localhost⁠ / your server ip / the domain you're using will now render the basic libretime page. Follow the instructions for installation. At some point, libretime will tell you to run sudo service commands, simply run:

docker exec libretime sh /libre_start.sh and it's done.

An example install is shown here: https://github.com/kessibi/libretime-docker/wiki/Sample-installation⁠

You are done with the installation, running docker-compose down and up again will simply pop you back to your installation (it may needed 15-30 seconds to restart). Enjoy your radio.

⁠HTTPS

It is possible to serve this image via HTTPS using different tools, one option is to use traefik and docker-compose as described in the wiki page⁠

⁠disclaimer

This installation is not secure, the logins and passwords provided are the default ones. It is recommended to change them (icecast, libretime, postgres,..). This work is still in progress.

⁠work of others

The systemctl.py script (and the related operations in the Dockerfile) was not at all developed by me but rather found in the repository https://github.com/gdraheim/docker-systemctl-images⁠

systemctl is needed for the installation script (icecast2, apache2, postgres, ...).

⁠about the image

This Docker image is based on the ubuntu:18.04 base image, runs with postgres 10, php 7 and python 2.7 (libretime has not fully transitionned to python 3 yet).

The version of libretime used is release 3.0.0-alpha.9⁠

⁠having troubles with the image

Feel free to create an issue with your detailed problem, make sure to provide enough information to understand and recreate the problem.

⁠updating stream configurations

Feel free to modify stream configs, just know you will have to run docker exec libretime sh /libre_start.sh afterwards to restart all services. Otherwise, liquidsoap just doesn't start up again. If you find a clever way to tackle this issue, don't hesitate to bring it forward.

⁠upgrade of the image

If you downloaded the image early on (before version 3.0.0-alpha9, you might face these problems:

• When updating the image, it is possible you had an image based on ubuntu 16 (cat /etc/os-release in the Docker container),if it is the case you'll have to make sure your postgresql cluster gets updated from 9.5 to 10 (assuming you use volumes to store data).
• Again, if your image is based on ubuntu 16, it is most probable that you can't upload songs. To fix the issue, please run this command inside the container: chown -R www-data:www-data /srv/airtime/stor. Thanks to @miasmaejuices for pointing that out.
