sgtvarmint / ghostsync2

GhostSync 2.0

Prerequisites

• Docker Desktop (At least for Windows)
  • You will also need WSL 2, but the above guide has resources on how to get that installed as well.

Setting up your dev environment with Docker

Copy docker-compose-template.yml to docker-compose.yml and set the following keys to the appropriate values. If you need an access key, message SgtVarmint.

(Also make sure docker-compose.yml is getting ignored by .gitignore.)

• MOUNTED_VIDEO_ROOT is going to be the absolute path on your dev machine to the directory that holds your media (e.g C:\Users\Blowfish\Videos).

• ACCESS_KEY is going to be the authentication key that users will have to input to be able to gain access to the site itself.

• VIDEO_ROOT is where on the server the media is going to live.

Running the server in Docker

In the root directory of the project, you run the following command: docker-compose up -d. This will start your docker container called ghostsync2.

At this point, the server will be accessible at localhost:9000 (and, obviously, the port is modifiable so...)
