Getting Started using Docker

One option to get your receiver up and running quickly is to pick one of the available docker images. They come preloaded with all the requirements and openwebrx itself, and if you already have a running docker setup, they should get you started very easily.

I am currently providing specialized images for each of the supported hardware types, and I also have a "full" variant that includes support for all hardwares.

Check out my docker hub page for more information.

In order to download and run the full image, simply use these commands:

docker volume create openwebrx-config
docker run --device /dev/bus/usb -p 8073:8073 -v openwebrx-config:/config jketterl/openwebrx

When using docker, the config will be stored inside a docker volume, so in order to edit the config you will need to find out the filesystem path that is used by docker:

docker volume inspect openwebrx-config|grep Mountpoint
