YacReaderLibraryServer dockerized

No, not yet.

ETA on update to 9.6.2?

Hello,

I'm running LibreELEC in an ARM box (RockPro64) and tried to pull and run your docker container (since I read in one of your posts that you've been using it yourself in an arm environment). It apparently installs, but when I try to exec the library creation command I got an error stating that the container is not running. When I try to see the logs I get a "exec format error" (I've pasted all the steps, as well as the error messages, bellow).

By the way, I've tried each and every variant of the dockerized YACReader containers I found on the docker repository and the result is the same (same error msg, etc). I can confirm that my docker structure works well, since I've got several other containers running without any issues.







Am I maybe doing something wrong? Could you please point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance

Hi,
the docker images aren't build by us but by a user from the community, so our influence and ability to provide support is limited. My guess is that the containers are built for x86 and don't work on ARM architectures. You could either rebuild the images for ARM or ask the provider if he could add an ARM build.

I know you said that you've tried every variant of the docker images. Do you get the same error messages/symptoms when trying to use the image from my fork?

I run this one on a Raspberry Pi 3b (running dietpi as the OS). You may still have issues as this is compiled as an ARMv7 (32-bit) container and I'm not super familiar with how well 32-bit containers run on 64-bit boards. If that doesn't work you may need modify the docker file and build a new container as 64-bit ARMv8.

Hello,

In fact I’d already imagined the error was result of differences of architectures. I took some time to read the docker documentation and learned some basics on image building. It’s not perfect yet (too big, and all) but I got it working. Thank you very much for your suggestion.

Hello,

Thank you so much for your reply. In fact yours was one of the images I tried to use. I imagine that the issue was indeed the difference of architectures. After posting my question I took a look on the Docker manual and with the valuable help of your scripts (as well as the scripts from the other guys who were kind enough to post their images) I successfully built my own image, that’s been working fine for the last couple of hours without errors. I don’t think it’s as optimized as it can be yet, but it’s a start.

Thank you very much for your suggestion.

Hi guys,

I thought I could outsmart the system by running 2 instances of the container image on different ports.
This would theoretically make multi user libraries possible as each container would have its own database .
However, the library is created on the mount path when running YACReaderLibraryServer create-library inside the container.

This means that even when deleting your container, the database still remains on the path you've mounted.
This is a hidden folder named .yacreaderlibrary which contains library.ydb .

My question is, can we have the option to choose the path where the database comes inside the container.
This way, the database depends on the lifecycle of the container instead of the share/volume it is placed on.

I've already went through the code on github, but I could not find anything that defines an extra parameter to create-library.

So I was able to create the YAC library docker container - works great. I can access the comics if I'm at home via the assigned local IP & port.

I was also able to create a reverse proxy website so I can access the library at yac.xxx.xx. However when I click on the read button I only get text - a description of the file itself.

Any ideas?

Same problem here.
