December 20, 201411 yr Author I do have a question though, i run a vm for building dockers and i was wondering how i can change the user id of nobody and user to match unraids without borxing everything. in the vm itself, not the container/image.
December 20, 201411 yr Author Shout if we can help because I think this could be one of the most popular containers here It fell over first build on getting the right branch name from xbmc git.
December 20, 201411 yr Author I believe you should build from master now they've also rebranded all the source code about 12 hours ago, from xbmc to kodi and the current patch for helix no longer works
December 20, 201411 yr its likely just needing some s/xbmc/kodi love Feels like the stable is coming to me.
December 20, 201411 yr Author its likely just needing some s/xbmc/kodi love Feels like the stable is coming to me. i'm repulling the xbmc git, i''m going to try a kludge with the patch by just replacing kodi for xbmc, i don't expect it to work though, lol.
December 20, 201411 yr Author its likely just needing some s/xbmc/kodi love Feels like the stable is coming to me. i've found the last commit that the current patch still works on and am building from that.
December 20, 201411 yr Author its likely just needing some s/xbmc/kodi love Feels like the stable is coming to me. But sh1t like this is precisely why i was waiting for final.
December 20, 201411 yr Since the patches are unofficial and not related to final your actually better to do as much as you can now or you run the risk of final not being able to be patched.
December 20, 201411 yr Author Since the patches are unofficial and not related to final your actually better to do as much as you can now or you run the risk of final not being able to be patched. the patch works and i've built to this stage before, it's just now whether i've made any silly typos and fixing up the start files. it's such a long build though to wait to see if things are working, lol. i'm running a build local so i at least have the cache and changes are minor, vs it rebuilds from scratch everytime a change is made on docker hub.
December 20, 201411 yr Runing out the door but ponder what the purpose of this docker is. For me it would be all about API and library and if thats the case we just need to watch for changes related to that and nothing else. e.g. https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/5950
December 22, 201411 yr Author i'm having a little play with checkinstall, it will probably come to naught but i was toying with the idea of trying to make a .deb for headless xmbc.
December 26, 201411 yr Author Sparky I saw you updated your docker, does this mean full kodi now? it was final code kodi about 2 hours after it went final, i just changed one of the startup arguments and added --nolirc assume we are talking about the one available in my repo.
December 26, 201411 yr Author on the docker website as opposed to the docker tab in the unraid gui there are several things, some of which aren't intended for use just yet and are test builds for myself.
December 27, 201411 yr Author So I take that as an indirect way of saying don't use that one yet pretty much, lol. everything there other than what's in my repo are either unfinished or just stuff i'm testing out.
December 27, 201411 yr I need to get in on this docker container game. Work some of these issues myself
December 28, 201411 yr Talk to me about "dockerfile" I was looking at yours and saw where you set the permissions. What would be involved to take that out and let it be a variable that is passed through so I can make it user 1001 like I use with my other docker containers.

What would be involved to take that out and let it be a variable that is passed through so I can make it user 1001 like I use with my other docker containers. TBH i'm not that au-fait with variables, this is where i got my info from and this would be a good place to start and it explains things better than i possibly could. http://serverascode.com/2014/05/29/environment-variables-with-docker.html Although having said that, if you want it just to have the same permissions as your other containers just change it to suit in the dockerfile and no need to mess about with variables at all.
December 28, 201411 yr Author Would that mean creating my own container? Image* there's a very important distinction between images and containers. images are static base installs of your apps etc... and containers are the runtime part of the whole docker thing.
