upSnap on Docker for Win10?

[ljo123]

Does this work on docker for windows? The container looks like its running (default options) but is unreachable from the host machine or local LAN.

I have not tried it yet. What do the logs say? (Rough guess: it might be a windows networking issue. I had other problems with docker network on windows in the past.)

It doesn't work as its currently configured due to windows networking. Its definitely doable but I just installed on linux instead.

Ok, I don't plan to support windows. If you want to make it work, feel free to create a pull request.

So I got it mostly working with some changes to the network config in the compose file. I can reach the webUI, create and save hosts. Some stuff isn't working like network scan and the ability to check the status of a device. The WOL packet is definitely sent and received though. The issue is that network: host doesn't work on Windows or Mac.

Changes: exposed the frontend and backend ports to the host, created a custom network (so REDIS_HOST variable can equal container name) and added the network to both containers. Also removed network_mode: host.

Sample docker compose for SQLite:

services:
  app:
    container_name: upsnap_app
    image: seriousm4x/upsnap:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 8000:8000
      - 8001:8001
    networks:
      - upsnap_net
    environment:
      - FRONTEND_PORT=8000
      - BACKEND_PORT=8001
      - DB_TYPE=sqlite
      - REDIS_HOST=upsnap_redis
      - REDIS_PORT=6379
    depends_on:
      redis:
        condition: service_healthy
  redis:
    container_name: upsnap_redis
    image: redis:alpine
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"
    networks:
      - upsnap_net
    restart: unless-stopped
    command: redis-server --loglevel warning
    healthcheck:
      test: redis-cli ping
      interval: 10s
networks:
  upsnap_net:
    name: upsnap_net

I'll mention it in the readme as a "mostly working" solution for windows. But until it's not fully working, I won't add it. Feel free to update this issue, if you find better working solutions.
