[diskover](https://github.com/diskoverdata/diskover-community) is an open source file system indexer that uses Elasticsearch to index and manage data across heterogeneous storage systems.
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/).
The default username is diskover with the password of **darkdata**, access the container at `http://<host-ip>/`. The UI may be unusable until a valid index has been created.
The default diskover-web Constants.php file located at `/config/diskover-web.conf.d/Constants.php` will need to be edited to allow diskover-web to communicate with the ElasticSearch container. The following entries will need to be edited:
The application doesn't start an index by default. A crontab is created inside of the `/config` directory and can be set up to run automated indexes of `/data`. Changes to this crontab file require a restart to apply. You can also manually run an index by executing `/app/diskover/diskover.py` either in interactive or detached mode:
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.
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.
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`.

We 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.
* **31.10.21:** - Added xpack.security variable to ElasticSearch; added instructions to edit Constants.php in diskover; corrected command needed to manually generate an index in diskover
