It supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH. This container is only the backend server component needed to use The official or 3rd party HTML5 frontends. ## 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/guacd: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 | ✅ | arm32v7-\ | ## Application Setup This is a backend only service, to leverage Guacd server you need to use either the official Java frontend [guacamole-client](https://github.com/apache/guacamole-client) or an open source alternative like [guacamole-lite](https://github.com/vadimpronin/guacamole-lite). ## 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: guacd: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/guacd:latest container_name: guacd ports: - 4822:4822 restart: unless-stopped ``` ### docker cli ([click here for more info](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/)) ```bash docker run -d \ --name=guacd \ -p 4822:4822 \ --restart unless-stopped \ lscr.io/linuxserver/guacd: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 | | :----: | --- | | `4822` | Port Guacamole server listens on | ### Environment Variables (`-e`) | Env | Function | | :----: | --- | ### Volume Mappings (`-v`) | Volume | Function | | :----: | --- | #### 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. ## Docker Mods [![Docker Mods](https://img.shields.io/badge/dynamic/yaml?color=94398d&labelColor=555555&logoColor=ffffff&style=for-the-badge&label=guacd&query=%24.mods%5B%27guacd%27%5D.mod_count&url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Flinuxserver%2Fdocker-mods%2Fmaster%2Fmod-list.yml)](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=guacd "view available mods for this container.")
