linuxserver/thelounge

Thelounge (a fork of shoutIRC) is a web IRC client that you host on your own server.

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/thelounge 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=thelounge \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -p 9000:9000 \
  -v </path/to/appdata/config>:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/thelounge

docker-compose

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  thelounge:
    image: linuxserver/thelounge
    container_name: thelounge
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - </path/to/appdata/config>:/config
    ports:
      - 9000:9000
    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
9000	Application WebUI

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 EG Europe/London.

Volume Mappings (-v)

Volume	Function
/config	Configuration files.

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 log in to the application, browse to https://:9000.
• To setup user account(s) edit /config/config.json
• Change the value public: true, to public: false,
• restart the container and enter the following from the command line of the host:
• docker exec -it thelounge thelounge add <user>
• Enter a password when prompted, refresh your browser.
• You should now be prompted for a password on the webinterface.

Docker Mods

We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) can be accessed via the dynamic badge above.

Support Info

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