Running Linkwarden in a Docker

General system Applications
1

Have any of you ever worked with linkwarden? Do you have any experience?

I would like to test it, but I have no idea what a Docker is or does. I have no experience with this. Can someone explain to me what a Docker does?

Docker is a container, it runs whatever (pi-hole, mariadb, web server etc), with limited access to your main system, sort of like a jail.

I run my own home page (Homaar), Google free Google search (Whoogle) and a pi-hole instance (TBH I am thinking of dumping this, browser extensions are much better, in the last 6 months, it blocked under a hundred requests).

With Docker you can run Applications in a Container. And as @xircon said with limited access to the host system (that all is configured in the yaml file)

Thank you very much for your explanation. That makes a lot of things clearer for me :enos:

I’m going to bed smarter today :rofl:

If you wait until I get home, I can share a simple docker-compose install script that just runs Whoogle, you will need to install docker and docker compose, but it doesn’t interfere with anything (you just point your browser to localhost:<port>).

That would be great! I have to read up on the article first so that I know how to install Docker and Linkwarden

  • Create a directory say ~/linkwarden cd into it.
  • Install docker and docker compose
yay -S docker docker-compose

Run:

docker compose up -d

And that should get it up and running, then follow their instructions to access.
