Image: crazymax/firefox-syncserver:latest
* Manifest List: Yes
* Supported platforms:

```

## Environment variables

* `TZ`: The timezone assigned to the container (default `UTC`)
* `PUID`: Process UID (default `1000`)
* `PGID`: Process GID (default `1000`)
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_ACCESSLOG`: Display access log (default `false`)
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_LOGLEVEL`: Log level output (default `info`)
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_PUBLIC_URL`: Must be edited to point to the public URL of your server (default `http://localhost:5000`).
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_SECRET`: This is a secret key used for signing authentication tokens. It should be long and randomly-generated.
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_ALLOW_NEW_USERS`: Set this to `false` to disable new-user signups on the server. Only request by existing accounts will be honoured (default `true`).
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_FORCE_WSGI_ENVIRON`: Set this to `true` to work around a mismatch between public_url and the application URL as seen by python, which can happen in certain reverse-proxy hosting setups (default `false`).
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_SQLURI`: Defines the database in which to store all server data (default `sqlite:///data/syncserver.db`).
* `FF_SYNCSERVER_FORWARDED_ALLOW_IPS`: Set this to `*` or an IP range if you use an Nginx reverse proxy (optional).

> 💡 `FF_SYNCSERVER_SECRET_FILE` can be used to fill in the value from a file, especially for Docker's secrets feature.

## Volumes

* `/data`: Contains SQLite database if `FF_SYNCSERVER_SQLURI` is untouched

> :warning: Note that the volumes should be owned by the user/group with the specified `PUID` and `PGID`. If you don't give the volume correct permissions, the container may not start.

## Ports

* `5000`: Gunicorn port

## Usage

### Docker Compose

Docker compose is the recommended way to run this image. You can use the following [docker compose template](examples/compose/docker-compose.yml), then run the container:

```bash
docker-compose up -d
docker-compose logs -f
```

### Command line

You can also use the following minimal command:

```bash
$ docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --name firefox_syncserver \
-e TZ="Europe/Paris" \
-e FF_SYNCSERVER_SECRET="5up3rS3kr1t" \
-v $(pwd)/data:/data \
crazymax/firefox-syncserver:latest
```

## Notes

### Use with MySQL database

Set `FF_SYNCSERVER_SQLURI=pymysql://user:password@mysql_server_ip/db_name`

### Use with PostgreSQL database

Set `FF_SYNCSERVER_SQLURI=postgresql://user:password@postgresql_server_ip/db_name`

## Upgrade

Recreate the container whenever I push an update:

```bash
docker-compose pull
docker-compose up -d
```
