linuxserver/ngircd

Ngircd is a free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server for small or private networks, developed under the GNU General Public License GPL. It is easy to configure, can cope with dynamic IP addresses, and supports IPv6, SSL-protected connections as well as PAM for authentication. It is written from scratch and not based on the original IRCd.

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 and our announcement here.

Simply pulling linuxserver/ngircd 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

Usage

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.

docker

docker create \
  --name=ngircd \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -p 6667:6667 \
  -v </path/to/ngircd/config>:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/ngircd

docker-compose

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

---
version: "2"
services:
  ngircd:
    image: linuxserver/ngircd
    container_name: ngircd
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - </path/to/ngircd/config>:/config
    ports:
      - 6667:6667
    restart: unless-stopped

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
`6667`	ngircd port

Environment Variables `-e`

Env	Function
`PUID=1000`	for UserID - see below for explanation
`PGID=1000`	for GroupID - see below for explanation
`TZ=Europe/London`	Specify a timezone to use e.g. Europe/London

Volume Mappings `-v`

Volume	Function
`/config`	Where `ngircd.conf` is stored

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:

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

Application Setup

To setup ngircd you will need to edit /config/ngircd.conf which is created the first time the container is run, edit the file and restart the container to implement any config changes.
For information see the ngircd site here.

Support Info

Shell access whilst the container is running:
- docker exec -it ngircd /bin/bash
To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:
- docker logs -f ngircd
Container version number
- docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' ngircd
Image version number
- docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' linuxserver/ngircd
