It doesn't provide useless bells and whistles, but focuses on efficiency and ease of use. It provides simple answers to common needs, plus unique useful features for personal users as well as hosting providers.\n\nPureFTPd‘s mantra is ‘Security First.’ This is evident in the [low number of CVE entries][101].\n\n\u003e [www.pureftpd.org](https://www.pureftpd.org)\n\n![Pure-FTPd Logo](https://www.pureftpd.org/images/pure-ftpd.png)\n\n\n\n\n## How to use this image\n\nTo run Pure-FTPd server just start the container: \n```bash\ndocker run -d -p 21:21 -p 30000-30009:30000-30009 instrumentisto/pure-ftpd\n```\n\n\n### Why so many ports opened?\n\nThis is for `PASV` support, please see: [#5 PASV not fun :)][12]\n\n\n### Configuration\n\nBy default it uses [default configuration file][10] `/etc/pure-ftpd.conf`.\n\n1. You may either specify your own configuration file instead.\n\n    ```bash\n    docker run -d -p 21:21 \\\n               -v $(pwd)/my.conf:/etc/pure-ftpd.conf \\\n           instrumentisto/pure-ftpd\n    ```\n\n2. Or specify command line options directly.\n\n    ```bash\n    docker run -d -p 21:21 instrumentisto/pure-ftpd \\\n           pure-ftpd -c 50 -E -H -R\n    ```\n    \n3. Or even specify another configuration file.\n\n    ```bash\n    docker run -d -p 21:21 \\\n               -v $(pwd)/my.conf:/my/pure-ftpd.conf \\\n           instrumentisto/pure-ftpd \\\n           pure-ftpd /my/pure-ftpd.conf\n    ```\n\n\n### Accounts\n\nThis image uses [PureDB][11] for virtual FTP accounts.\n\nIt's just enough to mount `/etc/pureftpd.passwd` file, which will be converted into `/etc/pureftpd.pdb` file on container start.\n\nLocation of `.passwd` file may be changed with `PURE_PASSWDFILE` env var. Location of `.pdb` file may be changed with `PURE_DBFILE` env var.\n\nTo generate `pureftpd.passwd` you may use `pure-pw` binary contained in image:\n```bash\ndocker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/my.passwd:/etc/pureftpd.passwd --entrypoint sh \\\n       instrumentisto/pure-ftpd \\\n           pure-pw useradd joe -u 90 -d /data/joe\n```\n\n\n\n\n## Image tags\n\nThis image is based on the popular [Alpine Linux project][1], available in [the alpine official image][2]. [Alpine Linux][1] is much smaller than most distribution base images (~5MB), and thus leads to much slimmer images in general.\n\nThis variant is highly recommended when final image size being as small as possible is desired. The main caveat to note is that it does use [musl libc][4] instead of [glibc and friends][5], so certain software might run into issues depending on the depth of their libc requirements. However, most software doesn't have an issue with this, so this variant is usually a very safe choice. See [this Hacker News comment thread][6] for more discussion of the issues that might arise and some pro/con comparisons of using [Alpine][1]-based images.\n\n\n### `\u003cX\u003e`\n\nLatest tag of the latest major `X` Pure-FTPd version.\n\n\n### `\u003cX.Y\u003e`\n\nLatest tag of the latest minor `X.Y` Pure-FTPd version.\n\n\n### `\u003cX.Y.Z\u003e`\n\nLatest tag of the concrete `X.Y.Z` Pure-FTPd version.\n\n\n### `\u003cX.Y.Z\u003e-r\u003cN\u003e`\n\nConcrete `N` image revision tag of the concrete `X.Y.Z` Pure-FTPd version.\n\nOnce built, it's never updated.\n\n\n\n\n## Important tips\n\nAs far as Pure-FTPd writes its logs only to `syslog`, the `syslogd` process runs inside container as second side-process and is supervised with [`s6` supervisor][20] provided by [`s6-overlay` project][21].\n\n\n### Logs\n\nThe `syslogd` process of this image is configured to write everything to `/dev/stdout`.\n\nTo change this behaviour just mount your own `/etc/syslog.conf` file with desired log rules.\n\n\n### s6-overlay\n\nThis image contains [`s6-overlay`][21] inside. So you may use all the [features it provides][22] if you need to.\n\n\n\n\n## License\n\nPure-FTPd is licensed under [BSD license][92].\n\nAs with all Docker images, these likely also contain other software which may be under other licenses (such as Bash, etc from the base distribution, along with any direct or indirect dependencies of the primary software being contained).\n\nAs for any pre-built image usage, it is the image user's responsibility to ensure that any use of this image complies with any relevant licenses for all software contained within.\n\nThe [sources][90] for producing `instrumentisto/pure-ftpd` Docker images are licensed under [Blue Oak Model License 1.0.0][91].\n\n\n\n\n## Issues\n\nWe can't notice comments in the [DockerHub] (or other container registries) so don't use them for reporting issue or asking question.\n\nIf you have any problems with or questions about this image, please contact us through a [GitHub issue][3].\n\n\n\n\n[DockerHub]: https://hub.docker.com\n\n[1]: http://alpinelinux.org\n[2]: https://hub.docker.com/_/alpine\n[3]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/pure-ftpd-docker-image/issues\n[4]: http://www.musl-libc.org\n[5]: http://www.etalabs.net/compare_libcs.html\n[6]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10782897\n[10]: https://github.com/jedisct1/pure-ftpd/blob/1.0.47/pure-ftpd.conf.in\n[11]: https://download.pureftpd.org/pure-ftpd/doc/README.Virtual-Users\n[12]: https://github.com/stilliard/docker-pure-ftpd/issues/5\n[20]: http://skarnet.org/software/s6/overview.html\n[21]: https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay\n[22]: https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay#usage\n[90]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/pure-ftpd-docker-image\n[91]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/pure-ftpd-docker-image/blob/main/LICENSE.md\n[92]: https://download.pureftpd.org/pub/pure-ftpd/doc/COPYING\n[101]: https://nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/search-results?query=pure-ftpd\u0026search_type=all\u0026cves=on\n\n[201]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/pure-ftpd-docker-image/blob/main/Dockerfile\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finstrumentisto%2Fpure-ftpd-docker-image","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Finstrumentisto%2Fpure-ftpd-docker-image","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finstrumentisto%2Fpure-ftpd-docker-image/lists"}
