[Snipe-it](https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it) makes asset management easy. It was built by people solving real-world IT and asset management problems, and a solid UX has always been a top priority. Straightforward design and bulk actions mean getting things done faster.

## Supported Architectures

Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).

Simply pulling `lscr.io/linuxserver/snipe-it` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

| Architecture | Tag |
| :----: | --- |
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v7-latest |

## Application Setup

Access the webui at `<your-ip>:8080`, for more information check out [Snipe-it](https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it).

## Usage

To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.

### docker-compose (recommended, [click here for more info](https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/docker-compose))

```yaml
version: "3"
services:
  mysql:
    image: linuxserver/mariadb
    container_name: snipe_mysql
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - <path to mysql data>:/config
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=<secret password>
      - MYSQL_USER=snipe
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=<secret user password>
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=snipe
  snipeit:
    image: linuxserver/snipe-it:latest
    container_name: snipe-it
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      - mysql
    volumes:
      - <path to data>:/config
    environment:
      - NGINX_APP_URL=< your application URL IE 192.168.10.1:8080>
      - MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=mysql
      - MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT=3306
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=snipe
      - MYSQL_USER=snipe
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=<secret user password>
      - PGID=1000
      - PUID=1000
    ports:
      - "8080:80"

```

### docker cli ([click here for more info](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/))

```bash
docker run -d \
  --name=snipe-it \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e NGINX_APP_URL=<hostname or ip> \
  -e MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=<mysql host> \
  -e MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT=<mysql port> \
  -e MYSQL_DATABASE=<mysql database> \
  -e MYSQL_USER=<mysql pass> \
  -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=changeme \
  -p 8080:80 \
  -v <path to snipe-it data>:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  lscr.io/linuxserver/snipe-it
```

## Parameters

Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `<external>:<internal>` 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.

### Ports (`-p`)

| Parameter | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `80` | Snipe-IT Web UI |

### Environment Variables (`-e`)

| Env | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation |
| `PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation |
| `NGINX_APP_URL=<hostname or ip>` | Hostname or IP and port if applicable IE <ip or hostname>:8080 |
| `MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=<mysql host>` | Mysql hostname or IP to use |
| `MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT=<mysql port>` | Mysql port to use |
| `MYSQL_DATABASE=<mysql database>` | Mysql database to use |
| `MYSQL_USER=<mysql pass>` | Mysql user to use |
| `MYSQL_PASSWORD=changeme` | Mysql password to use |

### Volume Mappings (`-v`)

| Volume | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `/config` | Contains your config files and data storage for Snipe-IT |

#### Miscellaneous Options

| Parameter | Function |
| :-----:   | --- |

## Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend `FILE__`.

As an example:

```bash
-e FILE__PASSWORD=/run/secrets/mysecretpassword
```

Will set the environment variable `PASSWORD` based on the contents of the `/run/secrets/mysecretpassword` file.

## Umask for running applications

For 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.
Keep 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.

## Optional Parameters

This container also generates an SSL certificate and stores it in
```
/config/keys/cert.crt
/config/keys/key.crt
```
To use your own certificate swap these files with yours. To use SSL forward your port to 443 inside the container IE:

```
-p 443:443
```

The application accepts a series of environment variables to further customize itself on boot:

| Parameter | Function |
| :---: | --- |
| `-e APP_TIMEZONE=` | The timezone the application will use IE US/Pacific|
| `-e APP_ENV=` | Default is production but can use testing or develop|
| `-e APP_DEBUG=` | Set to true to see debugging output in the web UI|
| `-e APP_LOCALE=` | Default is en set to the language preferred full list [here][localesurl]|
| `-e MAIL_PORT_587_TCP_ADDR=` | SMTP mailserver ip or hostname|
| `-e MAIL_PORT_587_TCP_PORT=` | SMTP mailserver port|
| `-e MAIL_ENV_FROM_ADDR=` | The email address mail should be replied to and listed when sent|
| `-e MAIL_ENV_FROM_NAME=` | The name listed on email sent from the default account on the system|
| `-e MAIL_ENV_ENCRYPTION=` | Mail encryption to use IE tls |
| `-e MAIL_ENV_USERNAME=` | SMTP server login username|
| `-e MAIL_ENV_PASSWORD=` | SMTP server login password|

## User / Group Identifiers

When 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`.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance `PUID=1000` and `PGID=1000`, to find yours use `id user` as below:

```bash
  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)
```
