You might be able to convince other hosts to work as well but you are entering uncharted waters on your own risk ;) ...\n\n[![pulls](https://img.shields.io/docker/pulls/moritzf/virtualhere.svg)](https://hub.docker.com/r/moritzf/virtualhere/)\n\n[VirtualHere](https://www.virtualhere.com/) is a piece of software that allows you to share USB-devices (Scanner, Printer, Mouse, Keyboard etc.) over the network.\n\nVirtualHere itself is not included in the docker-image directly but rather gets downloaded from the authors website upon the first start of the container. It should also auto-update on every restart.\n\nFor VirtualHere to work correctly you have to ensure that you run the container with access to your hosts USB-devices. This can for example be achieved by running in privileged mode (--privileged). \n\nWhile the default port 7575 is exposed per default with this image, the usual Auto-Discovery based on Bonjour will not work unless you run the container on the host network. You can however enter the IP and port in the [Client](https://www.virtualhere.com/usb_client_software) manually if you choose not to do so.\n\nMap the /data folder of this container to a folder on your host to get access to the config.ini file that allows you to enter your license information, change different parameters, choose which usb-devices to share etc.\n\nTo run on host network use: \n~~~~\n$ docker run -d -v /host/directory:/data --network=host --privileged --name moritzf-virtualhere moritzf/virtualhere:latest\n~~~~\nOtherwise use:\n~~~~\n$ docker run -d -v /host/directory:/data -p 7575:7575 --privileged --name moritzf-virtualhere moritzf/virtualhere:latest\n~~~~\n(Replace \"/host/directory\" with a valid directory on your host machine)\n\nThe trial-license allows you to share one usb-device. For multiple devices and more advanced features (such as traffic-encryption, user-authentication etc.), you will have to purchase a license from the author of VirtualHere. Always support a developers hard work if you think it is worth it!\n\n# Publish\n\n```bash\ndocker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64,linux/arm -t moritzf/virtualhere ./\ndocker push moritzf/virtualhere\n```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmoritzfl%2Fdocker-virtualhere","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmoritzfl%2Fdocker-virtualhere","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmoritzfl%2Fdocker-virtualhere/lists"}
