Docker-Compose for Nextcloud about coturn-docker-image HOT 10 CLOSED

@weltmaister

the "-n" flag is necessary?

No it's not. It's added by default as Docker image has no config file inside. You're free to override container args to match your use case.

Or how can I solve this when needing "--external-ip=$(detect-external-ip)" for nonstatic IP via DynDNS?

You can mix config file and container args. For example:

services:
  coturn:
    container_name: myproj-coturn
    image: instrumentisto/coturn:4.5
    command:
      - --log-file=stdout
      - --external-ip=$$(detect-external-ip)  # <- notice $$ to omit Docker Compose expansion
      #- --Verbose
    volumes:
      - ./_dev/coturn/turnserver.conf:/etc/coturn/turnserver.conf:ro
      - ./.cache/coturn/data:/var/lib/coturn
    network_mode: host

from coturn-docker-image.

I had the same problem.

The Dockerfile in this repo has the following command line:

CMD ["-n", "--log-file=stdout", "--external-ip=$(detect-external-ip)"]

In the coturn wiki it says:

-n Do not use configuration file, use only command line parameters.

To override the Dockerfile's command in your docker-compose.yml just use:

coturn:
    image: instrumentisto/coturn
    command: turnserver

command: turnserver allows the turnserver to read the config in /etc/coturn/turnserver.conf but does not have the log-file and external-ip flags therefore you will also have to set these in your turnserver.conf:

log-file=stdout
external-ip=0.0.0.0

Replace 0.0.0.0 with your turn server's public ip address.

@tyranron

services:
  coturn:
    image: instrumentisto/coturn:latest
    command:
      - -c=/etc/coturn/turnserver.conf
      - --log-file=stdout
      - --external-ip=$$(detect-external-ip)
    volumes:
      - ./_dev/coturn/turnserver.conf:/etc/coturn/turnserver.conf:ro
    network_mode: host

with '- -c=/etc/coturn/turnserver.conf'
and '$$' works for me.

... - --external-ip=$(detect-external-ip) ...

with '$' didn´t.
Thanks a lot.

PS: Should be there a hint in the README.md, that a volume-linked turnserver.conf always has to be in conjunction with the "- -c=" command option?

@bd8392 we've never used NextCloud talk plugin, so barely we can help you with that.

However, you can provide here your Docker Compose specs you've done already and we can help you to find out what is wrong.

There is an Issue with specifying the config file...
Mounting own config under /etc/coturn/turnserver.conf does not work...It only works with the command option specifying the location of the config file, but when the turnserver restarts, the command is ignored. Also ther is no way provided to specify the commands directly in docker compose...That was the problem why it was not working with nextcloud...here my working docker-compose (till the service restarts)

coturn:
container_name: coturn
image: instrumentisto/coturn
restart: unless-stopped
depends_on:
- nextcloud
network_mode: host
volumes:
- /your/cool/configlocation:/my
command:
-c /my/turnserver.conf

Mounting own config under /etc/coturn/turnserver.conf does not work

Why? It works for us pretty well.

I don't know... tried it multiple times...

Could you find the reason why it's maybe not working for me?

Hi,
in

CMD ["-n", "--log-file=stdout", "--external-ip=$(detect-external-ip)"]

the "-n" flag is necessary?
AFAIU, with it, an individual turnserver.conf could never work or how does it?
Or how can I solve this when needing "--external-ip=$(detect-external-ip)" for nonstatic IP via DynDNS?
Tried already the Dockerfile with setting everything as command line parameters:

CMD ["-n", "--log-file=stdout", "--external-ip=$(detect-external-ip)", "--listening-port=3478", "--lt-cred-mech", "--use-auth-secret", "static-auth-secret=xxxxxxxx", "--realm=xxx.xxxx.xx", "--total-quota=100", "--bps-capacity=0", "--stale-nonce", "--no-loopback-peers", "--no-multicast-peers"]

didn´t work neither as

CMD ["-c=/etc/coturn/turnserver.conf", "--log-file=stdout", "--external-ip=$(detect-external-ip)"]

both produce same result in log:

standard_init_linux.go:211: exec user process caused "no such file or directory"

sorry for reopening

notice $$ to omit Docker Compose expansion

which is wrong. It still gets expanded to one $.
