Installation

Once again, nothing very complex here, the docker image is provided by LinuxServer 🦦.

First thing first, you need to create a folder for this project and put inside your docker-compose.yml file.

version: "2.3"
services:
  freshrss:
    container_name: freshrss
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/freshrss:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 8082:80
    environment:
      - PUID=1026
      - PGID=100
      - TZ=Europe/Paris
    volumes:
      - /home/thelazyfox/docker/freshrss/config:/config

Please remember to create all folders and files before trying to launch your docker-compose.

How does it look like on my server:

freshrss/
      |_ docker-compose.yaml
      |_ config/

And now, you just have to launch your docker-compose file with the following command cd freshrss && docker-compose up -d
