Lyrionmusicserver in a container using the lmscommunity image.

1. setup Docker on gentoo - see: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Docker
2. check the new kernel configuration: /usr/share/docker/contrib/check-config.sh /usr/src/linux/.config

Variables in /etc/lyrionmusicserver.conf (on the host server) allow these settings to be customised:

1. lyrionmusicserver image version
2. hostname to be given to the container
3. directories to mount from the host
4. ports

$ lyrionmusicserver-docker settings
...
$ lyrionmusicserver-docker pull
$ lyrionmusicserver-docker create
$ lyrionmusicserver-docker start
$ lyrionmusicserver-docker logs
...
$ lyrionmusicserver-docker stop
...
$ lyrionmusicserver-docker delete

1. lyrionmusicserver-docker stop
2. lyrionmusicserver-docker pull
3. docker rename lyrionmusicserver lyrionmusicserver-8.2.1 # renames the old container
4. lyrionmusicserver-docker create
5. lyrionmusicserver-docker start

Optional - to remove an old container and/or image:

6. docker rm lyrionmusicserver-8.2.1
7. docker rmi lyrionmusicserver/docker:8.2.1

An existing favorites.opml file can be made available in the container by:

cp /etc/lyrionmusicserver/favorites.opml <lms_config>/prefs/favorites.opml

where <lms_config> is the setting from /etc/lyrionmusicserver.conf.

To have the container start automatically:

rc-config add lyrionmusicserver

The default docker "json-file" logging driver does not do log rotation.

To select the "local" driver, with a max file size of 10MB and four files, add this to /etc/docker/daemon.json:

{
  "log-driver": "local",
  "log-opts": {
    "max-size": "10m",
    "max-file": "4"
  }
}

Note that this change only effects newly created containers and after docker is restarted.
