Helps caregivers track sleep, feedings, diaper changes, tummy time and more to learn about and predict baby's needs without (as much) guess work. ## Supported Architectures 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/babybuddy:latest` 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 | Available | Tag | | :----: | :----: | ---- | | x86-64 | ✅ | amd64-\ | | arm64 | ✅ | arm64v8-\ | | armhf | ❌ | | ## Application Setup Access the webui at `:8000` (or whichever host port is mapped in docker arguments). The default user/pass are `admin:admin`. By default BabyBuddy uses sqlite3. To use an external database like postgresql or mysql/mariadb instead, you can use the environment variables listed in [BabyBuddy docs](https://github.com/babybuddy/babybuddy#configuration). ## 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: "2.1" services: babybuddy: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/babybuddy:latest container_name: babybuddy environment: - PUID=1000 - PGID=1000 - TZ=Etc/UTC - CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://127.0.0.1:8000,https://babybuddy.domain.com volumes: - /path/to/appdata:/config ports: - 8000:8000 restart: unless-stopped ``` ### docker cli ([click here for more info](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/)) ```bash docker run -d \ --name=babybuddy \ -e PUID=1000 \ -e PGID=1000 \ -e TZ=Etc/UTC \ -e CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://127.0.0.1:8000,https://babybuddy.domain.com \ -p 8000:8000 \ -v /path/to/appdata:/config \ --restart unless-stopped \ lscr.io/linuxserver/babybuddy:latest ``` ## Parameters Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `:` 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 | | :----: | --- | | `8000` | the port for the web ui | ### Environment Variables (`-e`) | Env | Function | | :----: | --- | | `PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation | | `PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation | | `TZ=Etc/UTC` | specify a timezone to use, see this [list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List). | | `CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS=http://127.0.0.1:8000,https://babybuddy.domain.com` | Add any address you'd like to access babybuddy at (comma separated, no spaces) | ### Volume Mappings (`-v`) | Volume | Function | | :----: | --- | | `/config` | Contains all relevant configuration and data. | #### 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. ## 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) ``` ## Docker Mods [![Docker Mods](https://img.shields.io/badge/dynamic/yaml?color=94398d&labelColor=555555&logoColor=ffffff&style=for-the-badge&label=babybuddy&query=%24.mods%5B%27babybuddy%27%5D.mod_count&url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-mods%2Fmaster%2Fmod-list.yml)](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=babybuddy "view available mods for this container.")

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. ## Support Info * Shell access whilst the container is running: * `docker exec -it babybuddy /bin/bash` * To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: * `docker logs -f babybuddy` * Container version number * `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' babybuddy` * Image version number * `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' lscr.io/linuxserver/babybuddy:latest` ## Versions * **25.05.23:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.18, deprecate armhf. * **16.01.23:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.17. * **23.11.22:** - Rebase to Alpine 3.16, migrate to s6v3.
