Thank you!!

Could I impose on someone to please write directions how to set this up? Can the template be re-written so that one can enter our login information as variables...? I have no-ip and would love to get this going. Thanks, H.

Skaknk did you figure this out yet?

How do you build the Dockers in this fashion? I create a repo in Github, start with a similar dockerfile and add anything needed. I then create a new Auto Build repo in dockerhub. There is a lot of trial and error... If there is a better work flow, I would love to know about it.

Bummer... thank you for considering though. I have already disabled all the things I don't want to see in the Settings page. I wish I could understand php enough to see how its reading and outputting the data... and in which order, and insert a <br> between things or sets of things.

For the Tray Number

Any suggestions would be welcome and considered. Hi Theone, Sorry for not getting back sooner. I have some suggestions for the "visuals" of the plugin. I find the "continuous line" description w/ the alternating white and black, very hard to read and discern. I suggest something like wht I mocked up below: As you can see in the middle drive, I have grouped some of the more important info together and larger. I have also split other lines. This could be a 2 column table. If some lines get too long (like HDD model number) you could either make font smaller, or truncate the string. What (for me) are the most important lines that can go together and on their own could be something like: DiskNo. - DiskSD# - DiskSize (top hierarchy larger font, bold) Manufacturer - Model (small font) SerialNumber (on its own line) If needed, you can also make the grey rectangles a little larger to accommodate the better formatted text. The whole thing does NOT need to be exactly like my mockup, but the idea is to make the info easy to read. For the Vertical oriented drive layou, I would strongly consider not rotating the font. Very hard to read. Here as well, you could make the drive rectangle containers a little larger and/or split the text info into various lines. While not a big deal, I am also offering icon alternatives. These icons are more in-line with the icons in unRAID's Setting page. The icon you have is a little more modern, in the "flat" style of the latest iOS, Win 8 Metro, etc. http://i.imgur.com/RzFq1CP.png http://i.imgur.com/bhsBHRH.png Please let me know your thoughts. Many thanks again for this plugin!! ps. Maybe the Tray Number can go directly below the LED light, in a larger font... in dark grey...

Just found out about this plugin... really nice.... long gone are the days of having to take out each drive to read serial numbers. Thank you so much for this. Would you be interested in some design (visual) suggestions?

It should not be hard to build based on a Phusion image... I am having a hard time grasping how this works... Is it like your own personal MediaFire or Fileshare, or is it more community share base.

Love the Plugin.... Easy as can be... using it for first time to pre-clear a 4TB drive. I do have one enhancement suggestion: There is the drop-down list that lest you choose the different actions to perform (clear, test, ?, etc.). It would be very helpful to have a description that clearly states what each of these options do. When, why, and how you would use each of the options listed. This is more of a reference than a functional feature. It would really help the non-power-experts. Thanks for this!!

BTW, I just ordered a new drive so I can test it.... and add more storage... who doesn't need more storage?

Thank you for this... long overdue. Its not often that I add new drives to my array... thus I have to -re-learn how to do it every time. The blond-pressure level goes up, trying to make sure I don't mess up. It looks like this will certainly ease things up.

I wish my brain could grasp what this does and what I can do with it...

I have created my own "portal" page which is like a Maraschino on super steroids. One of the things it does, it goes to the various NZB indexing sites I am a member of, and it parses the RSS feed to show me the latest releases. It then presents them on my portal. Because you only get a limited amount of API hits on those sites, I have a script that reads the rss feed, stores the info in a mySQL database table. Then when load the portal page, it reads the stored value in the database and not directly from the indexer websites. The script runs every 30 minutes, so that is 48 API hits per day. The info then is at worse, 29 minutes or less behind. This is totally fine for my perusal purpose. It do not need real time like that. Thus the cron... it runs the script that loads the data in the db. I also scrape the NY Times bestseller book list and stores it. I have a page that lists the weeks list. I was getting the cron job error you listed... and someway, somehow they went away. Unfortunately I cannot figure out what causes it. My guess is that it was a conflict with another docker. As you know, I am far from an expert.

I just upped a logo and changed the xml.... I want something that shows php, apache and database.. Not great... but not sure what else to try. Apache feather is a little too boring for my taste. EDIT - fixed earlier problem.

I will fix the template in Github... Gotta come up w/ a better logo though...

It worked... Thank you all.... I am psyched to exercise my brain and come up with ideas what to do. I will edit OP to mark questions done. Thanks again, H.

Thanks again Sparkly... seem very straight forward. It is taking a long time to Autobuild. I will let you know how it works out.

I assume I can change to... env CALUSER='myusername' env CALPASSWORD='mypassword' script exec /usr/bin/calibre-server --with-library $LIBRARY_PATH --auto-reload \ --username $CALUSER --password $CALPASSWORD end script How do I go about setting the variable in the template.xml? Or an example you can point me to... Ideally it would be great if one could enter both values like we enter the port and Host Paths when creating a new container in the unRAID webui. For your second suggestion, the variable(s) I set in Advanced View, are these the same variables used by the string --username $CALUSER --password $CALPASSWORD? This is the fist time I ever ever heard of environment variables. Thank you Sparkly!

I am glad.... Thank you.... The cron seems easier based on the example than what I thought.

Hi Guys, January 26, 2022 I have added a new docker: CloudCommander. It is a modified version of coderaiser's CloudCommander. I have modified the Docker itself to improve on the GUI. I have also added a way to manually modify the shortcut links to your own requirements. Here is the GUI. I hope you get good use out of this guy. =========================================================== ORIGINAL POST Thanks to all the help from you guys, I have managed to make a couple of Dockers. They are basically modifications of the work by smdion, CHBMB, and Aptalca. PLease note that I am NOT an expert at any of this... including Github. Apache-PHP This includes PHP and Apache to server some simple web pages.. I added Midnight Commander to the install (and created a quick logo). Calibre Server I took Aptalcas, and made some changes. First I am storing the location of the server files (which would ordinarily remain in the container) and put them in one of my unRAID shares /mnt/users/appdata/calibre. The reason for this is that I have edited the look and feel of the Calibre web page. I do not want to loose those edits every time I reinstall the container. Question: ANSWERED by Sparklyballs Password login feature is implemented!! A feature I would like is to password protect the Web site interface if I open the port on my router. Via script (in Ubuntu in /etc/init/calibre-server.conf) one can start the Calibre Server via this command: env USER='myusername' env PASSWORD='mypassword' env LIBRARY_PATH='/home/hernando/Dropbox/Calibre' env MAX_COVER='400x500' env PORT='8080' script exec /usr/bin/calibre-server --with-library $LIBRARY_PATH --auto-reload \ --max-cover $MAX_COVER --port $PORT \ --username $USER --password $PASSWORD end script As you can see you can pass a a username and password variables that it uses to password protect the site. How can I make this happen so I do not have to hard code the unername/password in the Dockerfile? Can something be done within the template where you enter these variables as part of the configuration? Another feature I added, was to add my unRAID downloads folder to the container. When I download books, I have them automatically be copied from either rTorrent or Sab into /mnt/user/downloads/complete/books. I want to create a cron job that has the following code: */10 * * * * xvfb-run /opt/calibre/calibredb add /downloads/complete/Books/ -r --with-library /config && rm -rf /mnt/user/downloads/complete/Books/* This will execute an update of the library and any new books will automatically land in the Calibre library without any intervention. Question Automatic Cron feature is implemented!! Watch out for the paths. Can someone please guide me how I can automatically add this cron to the container?. Feature should be added and working. Any help is greatly appreciated as always. Thanks, Here is the repo: https://github.com/hernandito/docker-templates

Got it working!! Many thanks... Now all I need to do is listen for Mario to know it is running.

Curretnly mine beeps when Unraid starts booting and when it starts to load Samba. It does not beep once system is ready.

Thank you guys.... I will test tonight when I get home!!!!

Hi, Perhaps this is a dumb request, but I want to make my Unraid a headless system. No keyboard, no monitor. The only thing is that I will not be able to tell when the Unraid finishes booting up, and if SABnzbd has also successfully loaded. Perhaps "something" at the end of the Go script to sound successful boot process, and another "something" within the SABnzd dependencies script (in the Go file) that signals it loaded SABnzbd. The "somethings" would be a series of beeps that makes a unique "song" when each event occurs. One could be like the Valkrie "Charge" series of beeps, and the other could be a separate identifiable series of beeps. My motherboard does make beeping sounds... I am not a Linux expert, am I being crazy? Thanks. H.
