Docker for Gazee
This is a docker image for the WebApp Comic Reader Gazee.
It is a modified version of the author's Docker image that removes the linuxserver.io base, as they don't use automated builds with public Dockerfiles. Instead, it uses a plain python-alpine base. Below is a slightly modified version of the original readme.
Docker Container
Dockerfile associated in this repository allows you to containerize the service. It installs all dependencies and required python packages automatically. You can find the docker image here in docker hub.
Step 1A: Build Docker image for Gazee locally (recommended)
You can build your own Docker image locally by cloning this repository and running the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/andreipoe/docker-gazee.git
cd docker-gazee
docker build -t andreipoe/gazee .Step 1B: Pull Docker image for Gazee
Alternatively, you can pull the image directly from DockerHub:
docker pull andreipoe/gazee
Step 2: Run docker container
To run the container:
docker run -d --restart-always --name=gazee \
-v ${local-comics-dir}:/comics \
-v ${local-gazee-dir}:/config \
-v ${local-mylarDB-dir}:/mylar \
-v ${local-certs-dir}:/certs \
-e PUID=${local UID}
-e PGID=${local GID}
-p 4242:4242 \
andreipoe/gazee
Note:
-v ${local-comics-dir}:/comics is a volume mount from your local host directory where you have stored your comicbook files ${local-comics-dir} to the /comics directory within the container.
-v ${local-gazee-dir}:/config is a volume mount from your local host directory to expose the configs inside the docker container to your host file system for easy log parsing, app configuration and backup ability.`
-v ${local-mylarDB-dir}:/mylar Optional Flag is a volume mount from your local host directory where you have stored your mylar db ${local-mylarDB-dir} to the /mylar directory within the container.
-v ${local-certs-dir}:/certs Optional Flag is a volume mount from your local host directory where you have stored your server certificate ${local-certs-dir} to the /certs directory within the container.
-e PUID/PGID:${local UID/GID} is a flag for setting the user id and group id of the user within the container running Gazee to match the local user that owns the mounted volumes above. This assures that the whole app 'Just Works' and that there will be no permission issues when attempting to write gazee's configs and logs, or when attempting to scan your library.
Step 3: Logon to Gazee's Web UI
You can use the above volume mounts to configure the settings of the app and dictate where to find you comic library, Mylar DB, and certificates.

It is a very good idea to set up a reverse proxy with SSL in front of this Gazee container.
