Usage

Required configuration

SEAF_SERVER_URL, SEAF_USERNAME, SEAF_PASSWORD, SEAF_LIBRARY_UUID
Provide your Seafile server URL, username, password and library UUID to synchronise your library at /library, then share it as a volume.

The seaf-cli is ran within the container as the user seafuser.

Optional configurations

SEAF_2FA_SECRET
Two factor authentication is supported but your secret key must be provided. That key can be found on your Seafile web interface, only at the 2FA setup, when the QR code is shown. The secret key is embedded in the QR or available as a cookie.

SEAF_LIBRARY_PASSWORD
Password protected librairies can be sync provided with the password.

SEAF_UPLOAD_LIMIT, SEAF_DOWNLOAD_LIMIT
Upload and download speeds are configurable as absolute bytes.

SEAF_SKIP_SSL_CERT
Skip SSL certificates verifications. Any string is considered true, omit the variable to set to false. Enable this if you have synchronization failures regarding SSL certificates.

UID, GID
Override the UID and GID for volume read/write permissions.
