Freshrss is a free, self-hostable aggregator for rss feeds.

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/freshrss 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=freshrss \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Europe/London \
  -p 80:80 \
  -v /path/to/data:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/freshrss

docker-compose

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  freshrss:
    image: linuxserver/freshrss
    container_name: freshrss
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - /path/to/data:/config
    ports:
      - 80:80
    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
80 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 Local storage for freshrss site files.

Environment variables from files Docker secrets

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.

As an example:

-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 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:

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

Application Setup

Access the webui set up wizard at http://serverIP:port

For external databases, create a user and database in your mysql/mariadb server not root and then follow the setup wizard in the webui. Use the IP address for "host" of your database server.

Additional extensions can be dropped into /config/www/freshrss/extensions and will be active after container restart.

Docker Mods

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:
