A container hosting BicBucStriim 1.5 using Alpine Linux 3.7, Apache 2.4 and PHP 7.

docker create \
        --name bicbucstriim \
        -p 80:80 \
        -p 443:443 \
        -e PUID=<UID> \
        -e PGID=<GID> \
        -e TZ=<timezone> \
        -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
        -v </path/to/config>:/config \
        -v </path/to/books>:/books:ro \
        undergrid/bicbucstriim

The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side.

For example the option -p external:internal defines a port mapping from internal to external of the container. So -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080. Accessing the server on http://192.168.x.x:8080 (replacing 192.168.x.x with your own IP address or fully qualified domain name) would show you what's running INSIDE the container on port 80.

• -p 80 - the non-ssl port
• -p 443 - the ssl port
• -v /config - container configuration
• -v /books - the directory containing the calibre library
• -v /etc/localtime for timesync - see Localtime for important information
• -e TZ for timezone information, Europe/London - see Localtime for important information
• -e PGID for for GroupID - see below for explanation
• -e PUID for for UserID - see below for explanation

It is based on Alpine Linux with S6 overlay.

It is important that you either set -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro or the TZ variable.

Sometimes when using data volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID. Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will "just work" ^TM.

In this instance PUID=1001 and PGID=1001. To find yours use id user as below:

  $ id <dockeruser>
    uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)

With a browser, open https://<your-host>:<ssl-port> where <your-host> is the domain name or IP address where you are hosting the container, and <ssl-port> is the ssl port you assigned on creation of the container. Alternatively use http://<your-host>:<non-ssl-port>.

Log in with the following credentials:

• Username: admin
• Password: admin

In the configuration page, set the "Calibre library path" to /books/. Other settings can be configured as you prefer.

Please note that this container does not support the 'PHP Mail' or 'Sendmail' options for sending email. If you wish to enable 'Allow Send-To-Kindle?' your must select 'SMTP' for sending mail and configure the SMTP settings.

Monitor the logs of the container in realtime docker logs -f apache-webdav.
