(help needed) Guide to new Docker users (Portainer)

[PauFCB]

Hi, I'm new with Docker, is there a step by step guide to install Koel using Portainer? I try with the guide but don't know what to do😅 thank you

What did not work?

Doing it with docker-compose is straight forward:

1. create directory koel wherever u want eg. mkdir ~/DockerCompose/koel and cd ~/DockerCompose/koel
2. Download either docker-compose.mysql.yml or https://github.com/koel/docker/blob/master/docker-compose.postgres.yml from
   https://github.com/koel/docker
3. change passwords <root_password> and <koel_password>
   and ports eg:

ports:
  - 8880:80

and the volume of your music folder eg:

volumes:
  - Enter Your absolute Music PATH:/music
  - covers:/var/www/html/public/img/covers
  - search_index:/var/www/html/storage/search-indexes

delete music volume:

volumes:
  music:
    driver: local

3.1 maybe you need to do sudo chown 33:33 Enter Your absolute Music PATH.
5. rename to docker-compose.yml (easier^^) or leave as is
6. do docker-compose up -d or if you haven't changed the name docker-compose up -d -f docker-compose.mysql.yml

portainer:

1. Go to stacks
2. click add new stack
3. leave Build method on web-editor
4. name: eg. koel
5. In the field Web editor paste content from the above docker-compose.mysql.yml or docker-compose.postgres.yml
6. change password and ports

Find out container name:
in terminal enter:
docker ps
and look for koel without database in it

init:
docker exec --user www-data -it <container_name_for_koel> php artisan koel:init --no-assets

change admin password:
docker exec --user www-data -it <container_name_for_koel> php artisan koel:admin:change-password

sync db:
docker exec --user www-data -it <container_name_for_koel> php artisan koel:sync -v
