# Seafile Client
# Available tags.
# Purpose
Docker Seafile Client allow you to sync a Seafile library within a container. Essentially, you have the ability to:
* **Share** data from a **Seafile library** as a volume to **other containers**.
## Seafile?
[Seafile is a cloud storage software](https://www.seafile.com/).
# Usage
The *Seafile* daemon is running from `/.seafile/` and `~/.ccnet`.
The library is synced at `/volume/`.
The *Seafile* daemon is managed with *supervisord* since it can't run as a foreground process.
The *supervisord* is running from `/.supervisord/`, the `supervisord.conf`, `supervisord.log` and `supervisord.pid` can be found there.
*supervisord* also manage a shell script, `/seaf-cli-start.sh` which run `seaf-cli start` every hour: the synchronisation might not work properly if the previously is not run from times to times, for an unresolved reason.
## Examples
You would have to share the path `/volume/` to other containers, with the following approaches:
### Docker CLI
`docker run `
### docker-compose
```yaml
version: "3.4"
services:
seafile-sync:
image: registry.gitlab.com/flwgns-docker/docker-seafile-client:latest
volumes:
- your_shared_volume:/volume
environment:
- SEAF_SERVER_URL= # The URL to your Seafile server.
- SEAF_USERNAME= # Your Seafile username.
- SEAF_PASSWORD= # Your Seafile password
- SEAF_LIBRARY_UUID= # The Seafile library UUID you want to sync with.
- UID= # Default is 1000.
- GID= # Default is 1000.
volumes:
your_shared_volume:
```
# Environment variables
The following environment variable are available.
## Seafile
This Docker **must be configured with the following**, **otherwise** it **will not run**:
## SEAF_SERVER_URL
The URL to your Seafile server.
## SEAF_USERNAME
Your Seafile account's username.
## SEAF_PASSWORD
Your Seafile account's password.
## SEAF_LIBRARY_UUID
The Seafile library UUID you want to use.
## User permissions
This Docker is **not running as `root` but as `seafuser`**. You can override the user/group ID used with:
### UID
The user ID defaults to `1000`. You may want to override this variable to prevent permission issues.
### GID
The group ID defaults to `1000`. Similarly, you may want to override this variable to prevent permission issues.
