(a fork of shoutIRC) is a web IRC client that you host on your own server.\n\n[![thelounge](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/thelounge/thelounge/master/client/img/logo-vertical-transparent-bg.svg?sanitize=true)](https://thelounge.github.io/)\n\n## Supported Architectures\n\nWe utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://distribution.github.io/distribution/spec/manifest-v2-2/#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).\n\nSimply pulling `lscr.io/linuxserver/thelounge:latest` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.\n\nThe architectures supported by this image are:\n\n| Architecture | Available | Tag |\n| :----: | :----: | ---- |\n| x86-64 | ✅ | amd64-\\\u003cversion tag\\\u003e |\n| arm64 | ✅ | arm64v8-\\\u003cversion tag\\\u003e |\n\n## Version Tags\n\nThis image provides various versions that are available via tags. Please read the descriptions carefully and exercise caution when using unstable or development tags.\n\n| Tag | Available | Description |\n| :----: | :----: |--- |\n| latest | ✅ | Stable releases. |\n| next | ✅ | Next Pre-Releases. |\n| nightly | ✅ | Nightly images from commits in master. |\n\n## Application Setup\n\n* When the application first runs, it will populate its /config\n\n* Stop the container\n\n* Now from the host, edit `/config/config.js`, wherever you've mapped it\n\n* In most cases you want the value `public: false` to allow named users only\n\n* Setting the two prefetch values to true improves usability, but uses more storage\n\n* Once you have the configuration you want, save it and start the container again\n\n* For each user, run the command\n\n* `docker exec -it thelounge s6-setuidgid abc thelounge add \u003cuser\u003e`\n\n* You will be prompted to enter a password that will not be echoed.\n\n* Saving logs to disk is the default, this consumes more space but allows scrollback.\n\n* To log in to the application, browse to `http://\u003chostip\u003e:9000`\n\n* You should now be prompted for a username and password on the web interface.\n\n* Once logged in, you can add an IRC network. Some defaults are preset for Freenode\n\n## Read-Only Operation\n\nThis image can be run with a read-only container filesystem. For details please [read the docs](https://docs.linuxserver.io/misc/read-only/).\n\n## Usage\n\nTo help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.\n\n\u003e[!NOTE]\n\u003eUnless a parameter is flagged as 'optional', it is *mandatory* and a value must be provided.\n\n### docker-compose (recommended, [click here for more info](https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/docker-compose))\n\n```yaml\n---\nservices:\n  thelounge:\n    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/thelounge:latest\n    container_name: thelounge\n    environment:\n      - PUID=1000\n      - PGID=1000\n      - TZ=Etc/UTC\n    volumes:\n      - /path/to/thelounge/config:/config\n    ports:\n      - 9000:9000\n    restart: unless-stopped\n```\n\n### docker cli ([click here for more info](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/))\n\n```bash\ndocker run -d \\\n  --name=thelounge \\\n  -e PUID=1000 \\\n  -e PGID=1000 \\\n  -e TZ=Etc/UTC \\\n  -p 9000:9000 \\\n  -v /path/to/thelounge/config:/config \\\n  --restart unless-stopped \\\n  lscr.io/linuxserver/thelounge:latest\n```\n\n## Parameters\n\nContainers are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `\u003cexternal\u003e:\u003cinternal\u003e` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container.\n\n| Parameter | Function |\n| :----: | --- |\n| `-p 9000:9000` | Application WebUI |\n| `-e PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation |\n| `-e PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation |\n| `-e TZ=Etc/UTC` | specify a timezone to use, see this [list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List). |\n| `-v /config` | Persistent config files |\n| `--read-only=true` | Run container with a read-only filesystem. Please [read the docs](https://docs.linuxserver.io/misc/read-only/). |\n\n## Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)\n\nYou can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend `FILE__`.\n\nAs an example:\n\n```bash\n-e FILE__MYVAR=/run/secrets/mysecretvariable\n```\n\nWill set the environment variable `MYVAR` based on the contents of the `/run/secrets/mysecretvariable` file.\n\n## Umask for running applications\n\nFor all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional `-e UMASK=022` setting.\nKeep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask) before asking for support.\n\n## User / Group Identifiers\n\nWhen using volumes (`-v` flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user `PUID` and group `PGID`.\n\nEnsure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.\n\nIn this instance `PUID=1000` and `PGID=1000`, to find yours use `id your_user` as below:\n\n```bash\nid your_user\n```\n\nExample output:\n\n```text\nuid=1000(your_user) gid=1000(your_user) groups=1000(your_user)\n```\n\n## Docker Mods\n\n[![Docker Mods](https://img.shields.io/badge/dynamic/yaml?color=94398d\u0026labelColor=555555\u0026logoColor=ffffff\u0026style=for-the-badge\u0026label=thelounge\u0026query=%24.mods%5B%27thelounge%27%5D.mod_count\u0026url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-mods%2Fmaster%2Fmod-list.yml)](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=thelounge \"view available mods for this container.\") [![Docker Universal Mods](https://img.shields.io/badge/dynamic/yaml?color=94398d\u0026labelColor=555555\u0026logoColor=ffffff\u0026style=for-the-badge\u0026label=universal\u0026query=%24.mods%5B%27universal%27%5D.mod_count\u0026url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-mods%2Fmaster%2Fmod-list.yml)](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=universal \"view available universal mods.\")\n\nWe publish various [Docker Mods](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-mods) to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.\n\n## Support Info\n\n* Shell access whilst the container is running:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker exec -it thelounge /bin/bash\n    ```\n\n* To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker logs -f thelounge\n    ```\n\n* Container version number:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels \"build_version\" }}' thelounge\n    ```\n\n* Image version number:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels \"build_version\" }}' lscr.io/linuxserver/thelounge:latest\n    ```\n\n## Updating Info\n\nMost of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (noted in the relevant readme.md), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the [Application Setup](#application-setup) section above to see if it is recommended for the image.\n\nBelow are the instructions for updating containers:\n\n### Via Docker Compose\n\n* Update images:\n    * All images:\n\n        ```bash\n        docker-compose pull\n        ```\n\n    * Single image:\n\n        ```bash\n        docker-compose pull thelounge\n        ```\n\n* Update containers:\n    * All containers:\n\n        ```bash\n        docker-compose up -d\n        ```\n\n    * Single container:\n\n        ```bash\n        docker-compose up -d thelounge\n        ```\n\n* You can also remove the old dangling images:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker image prune\n    ```\n\n### Via Docker Run\n\n* Update the image:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker pull lscr.io/linuxserver/thelounge:latest\n    ```\n\n* Stop the running container:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker stop thelounge\n    ```\n\n* Delete the container:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker rm thelounge\n    ```\n\n* Recreate a new container with the same docker run parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your `/config` folder and settings will be preserved)\n* You can also remove the old dangling images:\n\n    ```bash\n    docker image prune\n    ```\n\n### Image Update Notifications - Diun (Docker Image Update Notifier)\n\n\u003e[!TIP]\n\u003eWe recommend [Diun](https://crazymax.dev/diun/) for update notifications. Other tools that automatically update containers unattended are not recommended or supported.\n\n## Building locally\n\nIf you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-thelounge.git\ncd docker-thelounge\ndocker build \\\n  --no-cache \\\n  --pull \\\n  -t lscr.io/linuxserver/thelounge:latest .\n```\n\nThe ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware and vice versa using `lscr.io/linuxserver/qemu-static`\n\n```bash\ndocker run --rm --privileged lscr.io/linuxserver/qemu-static --reset\n```\n\nOnce registered you can define the dockerfile to use with `-f Dockerfile.aarch64`.\n\n## Versions\n\n* **27.07.25:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.22.\n* **06.06.24:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.20.\n* **23.12.23:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.19.\n* **25.05.23:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.18, deprecate armhf.\n* **18.12.22:** - Rebasing master to alpine 3.17.\n* **24.10.22:** - Fix sqlite3 build.\n* **12.04.22:** - Install from source using yarn.\n* **11.04.22:** - Rebasing to alpine 3.15 and switching from python2-dev to python3-dev for building node sqlite on arm.\n* **23.01.21:** - Rebasing to alpine 3.13.\n* **02.06.20:** - Rebasing to alpine 3.12.\n* **19.12.19:** - Rebasing to alpine 3.11.\n* **28.06.19:** - Rebasing to alpine 3.10.\n* **15.05.19:** - Update Arm variant images to build sqlite3 module.\n* **23.03.19:** - Switching to new Base images, shift to arm32v7 tag.\n* **22.02.19:** - Rebasing to alpine 3.9.\n* **28.01.19:** - Add pipeline logic and multi arch.\n* **25.08.18:** - Use global install, simplifies adding users.\n* **20.08.18:** - Rebase to alpine 3.8.\n* **06.01.18:** - Rebase to alpine 3.7.\n* **26.05.17:** - Rebase to alpine 3.6.\n* **06.02.17:** - Rebase to alpine 3.5.\n* **14.10.16:** - Bump to pickup 2.10 release.\n* **14.10.16:** - Add version layer information.\n* **11.09.16:** - Add layer badges to README.\n* **31.08.16:** - Initial Release.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-thelounge","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-thelounge","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-thelounge/lists"}
