Docker Pulls Docker Stars Build Status

Snipe-it makes asset management easy. It was built by people solving real-world IT and asset management problems, and a solid UX has always been a top priority. Straightforward design and bulk actions mean getting things done faster.

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/snipe-it 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 arm32v6-latest

Usage

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

docker

docker create \
  --name=snipe-it \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e APP_URL=<hostname or ip> \
  -e MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=<mysql host> \
  -e MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT=<mysql port> \
  -e MYSQL_DATABASE=<mysql database> \
  -e MYSQL_USER=<mysql pass> \
  -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=changeme \
  -p 8080:80 \
  -v <path to snipe-it data>:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/snipe-it

docker-compose

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

version: "3"
services:
  mysql:
    image: mysql:5
    container_name: snipe_mysql
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - <path to mysql data>:/var/lib/mysql
    environment:
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=<secret password>
      - MYSQL_USER=snipe
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=<secret user password>
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=snipe
  snipeit:

    depends_on:
      - mysql
    volumes:
      - <path to data>:/config
    environment:
      - APP_URL=< your application URL IE 192.168.10.1:8080>
      - MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=mysql
      - MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT=3306
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=snipe
      - MYSQL_USER=snipe
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=<secret user password>
      - PGID=1000
      - PUID=1000
    ports:
      - "8080:80"

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
80 Snipe-IT Web UI

Environment Variables `-e`

Env Function
PUID=1000 for UserID - see below for explanation
PGID=1000 for GroupID - see below for explanation
APP_URL=<hostname or ip> Hostname or IP and port if applicable IE :8080
MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_ADDR=<mysql host> Mysql hostname or IP to use
MYSQL_PORT_3306_TCP_PORT=<mysql port> Mysql port to use
MYSQL_DATABASE=<mysql database> Mysql database to use
MYSQL_USER=<mysql pass> Mysql user to use
MYSQL_PASSWORD=changeme Mysql password to use

Volume Mappings `-v`

Volume Function
/config Contains your config files and data storage for Snipe-IT

Optional Parameters

This container also generates an SSL certificate and stores it in

/config/keys/cert.crt
/config/keys/key.crt

To use your own certificate swap these files with yours. To use SSL forward your port to 443 inside the container IE:

-p 443:443

The application accepts a series of environment variables to further customize itself on boot:

Parameter Function
-e APP_TIMEZONE= The timezone the application will use IE US/Pacific
-e APP_ENV= Default is production but can use testing or develop
-e APP_DEBUG= Set to true to see debugging output in the web UI
-e APP_LOCALE= Default is en set to the language preferred full list [here][localesurl]
-e MAIL_PORT_587_TCP_ADDR= SMTP mailserver ip or hostname
-e MAIL_PORT_587_TCP_PORT= SMTP mailserver port
-e MAIL_ENV_FROM_ADDR= The email address mail should be replied to and listed when sent
-e MAIL_ENV_FROM_NAME= The name listed on email sent from the default account on the system
-e MAIL_ENV_ENCRYPTION= Mail encryption to use IE tls
-e MAIL_ENV_USERNAME= SMTP server login username
-e MAIL_ENV_PASSWORD= SMTP server login password

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

Access the webui at <your-ip>:8080, for more information check out Snipe-it.
