alestrix / unifi-protect

An Ubuntu based Docker image for Unifi Protect

This image does not have a future

It looks like release of the 1.12.5 package was not intentional... again. And future versions won't be public, the installations won't be upgradable and may eventually only work on Ubiquity hardware.

This image works w/ a macvlan network

You'll need to run this image on your lan w/ a real IP, using Docker's macvlan. It doesn't use dhcp and it doesn't watch for ip address conflicts, so be sure to account for that like the example below.

docker network create -d macvlan \
    --subnet 192.168.1.1/24 \
    --gateway 192.168.1.1 \
    --ip-range 192.168.1.16/28 \
    -o parent=eth0 lan

Note that you'll need to use the correct subnet, gateway, ip-range and network interface for your network and server. These example IPs may or may not be correct.
