DEPRECATION NOTICE

This image is deprecated. We will not offer support for this image and it will not be updated.
We recommend switching to the official container image https://github.com/owntone/owntone-container

linuxserver/daapd

Daapd (iTunes) media server with support for AirPlay devices, Apple Remote (and compatibles), Chromecast, MPD and internet radio.

Supported Architectures

We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.
Simply pulling lscr.io/linuxserver/daapd:latest should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.
The architectures supported by this image are:

Architecture	Available	Tag
x86-64	✅	amd64-\
arm64	✅	arm64v8-\
armhf	❌

Application Setup

Map your music folder, open up iTunes on the same LAN to see your music there.
The web interface is available at http://<your ip>:3689. The default credentials are admin/changeme.
For further setup options of remotes etc, check out the daapd website, Owntone.

Enable spotify connect server

Enable the spotify connect server by creating a pipe named 'spotify' in the root of your mounted music folder (not possible on most network mounts):

mkfifo <music_folder>/spotify

The spotify connect server should show up as the 'forked-daapd' device in your Spotify application.
It is recommended to set the pipe_autostart option to true in your forked-daapd config.

Usage

To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.
>!NOTE >Unless a parameter is flaged as 'optional', it is mandatory and a value must be provided.

docker-compose (recommended, click here for more info)

---
services:
  daapd:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/daapd:latest
    container_name: daapd
    network_mode: host
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
    volumes:
      - /path/to/daapd/data:/config
      - /path/to/music:/music
    restart: unless-stopped

docker cli (click here for more info)

docker run -d \
  --name=daapd \
  --net=host \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e TZ=Etc/UTC \
  -v /path/to/daapd/data:/config \
  -v /path/to/music:/music \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  lscr.io/linuxserver/daapd:latest

Parameters

Containers are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

Parameter	Function
--net=host	Shares host networking with container.
-e PUID=1000	for UserID - see below for explanation
-e PGID=1000	for GroupID - see below for explanation
-e TZ=Etc/UTC	specify a timezone to use, see this list.
-v /config	Where daapd server stores its config and dbase files.
-v /music	Map to your music folder.

Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)

You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend FILE__.
As an example:

-e FILE__MYVAR=/run/secrets/mysecretvariable

Will set the environment variable MYVAR based on the contents of the /run/secrets/mysecretvariable file.

Umask for running applications

For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional -e UMASK=022 setting. Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up here before asking for support.

User / Group Identifiers

When using 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 any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.
In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id your_user as below:

id your_user

Example output:

uid=1000(your_user) gid=1000(your_user) groups=1000(your_user)

Docker Mods

We publish various Docker Mods to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.

Support Info

• Shell access whilst the container is running:

```bash
docker exec -it daapd /bin/bash
```

• To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:

```bash
docker logs -f daapd
```

• Container version number:

```bash
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' daapd
```

• Image version number:

```bash
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' lscr.io/linuxserver/daapd:latest
```

Updating Info

Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (noted in the relevant readme.md), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the Application Setup section above to see if it is recommended for the image.
Below are the instructions for updating containers:

Via Docker Compose

• Update images:

* All images:

    ```bash
    docker-compose pull
    ```

* Single image:

    ```bash
    docker-compose pull daapd
    ```

• Update containers:

* All containers:

    ```bash
    docker-compose up -d
    ```

* Single container:

    ```bash
    docker-compose up -d daapd
    ```

• You can also remove the old dangling images:

```bash
docker image prune
```

Via Docker Run

• Update the image:

```bash
docker pull lscr.io/linuxserver/daapd:latest
```

• Stop the running container:

```bash
docker stop daapd
```

• Delete the container:

```bash
docker rm daapd
```

• Recreate a new container with the same docker run parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your /config folder and settings will be preserved)
• You can also remove the old dangling images:

```bash
docker image prune
```

Image Update Notifications - Diun (Docker Image Update Notifier)

>!TIP >We recommend Diun for update notifications. Other tools that automatically update containers unattended are not recommended or supported.

Building locally

If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:

git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-daapd.git
cd docker-daapd
docker build \
  --no-cache \
  --pull \
  -t lscr.io/linuxserver/daapd:latest .

The ARM variants can be built on x8664 hardware and vice versa using lscr.io/linuxserver/qemu-static

docker run --rm --privileged lscr.io/linuxserver/qemu-static --reset

Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with -f Dockerfile.aarch64.
