Docker help for qrm2

You have multiple ways to use docker to run an instance of qrm2.

• Docker help for qrm2
  • Using docker-compose and the prebuilt-image (recommended)
  • Using docker-compose and building the image
  • Using pure docker
    • [Optional] Building the image
    • Creating the container

Using docker-compose and the prebuilt-image (recommended)

This is the easiest method for running the bot without any modifications.
Do not clone the repository when using this method!

1. Create a new directory and cd into it.

2. Create the docker-compose.yml file:

   version: '3'
   services:
     qrm2:
       image: "ghcr.io/miaowware/qrm2:latest"
       restart: on-failure
       volumes:
         - "./data:/app/data:rw"
   

3. Create a subdirectory named data.

4. Copy the templates for options.py and keys.py to data/, and edit them.

5. Run docker-compose:

   $ docker-compose pull
   $ docker-compose up -d
   

   Run without "-d" to test the bot (run in foreground).

Using docker-compose and building the image

This is the easiest method to run the bot with modifications.

1. cd into the repository.

2. Create the docker-compose.yml file:

   version: '3'
   services:
     qrm2:
       build: .
       image: "qrm2:local-latest"
       restart: on-failure
       volumes:
         - "./data:/app/data:rw"
   

3. Create a subdirectory named data.

4. Copy the templates for options.py and keys.py to data/, and edit them.

5. Run docker-compose:

   $ docker-compose build --pull
   $ docker-compose up -d
   

   Run without "-d" to test the bot (run in foreground).

Using pure docker

This methods is not very nice to use.
I just wanna run the darn thing, not do gymnastics!

[Optional] Building the image

1. cd into the repository.

2. Run docker build:

   $ docker build -t qrm2:local-latest .
   

Creating the container

1. Be in a directory with a data/ subdirectory, which should contain valid options.py and keys.py files (copy and edit the templates).

2. Run the container:

   $ docker run -d --rm --mount type=bind,src=$(pwd)/data,dst=/app/data --name qrm2 [image]
   

   Where [image] is either of:

   • qrm2:local-latest if you are building your own.
   • ghcr.io/miaowware/qrm2:latest if you want to use the prebuilt image.
