The daemon reads the key with seafile_session_config_get_bool, which is a case sensitive g_strcmp0(value, "true"), so the capitalised True stored by released images up to 0.0.13 was read as false and verification stayed on for anyone who asked to disable it. The default was never affected, since any value other than "true" is false. Rendering booleans in lower case fixed this; this only writes down what the change actually repaired, for anyone who reported the flag as broken.

# docker-seafile-client
|
|
Docker image for [Seafile CLI client](https://help.seafile.com/syncing_client/linux-cli/).
|
|
|
|
Image on Docker Hub:
|
|
[snegov/seafile-client](https://hub.docker.com/r/snegov/seafile-client).
|
|
|
|
### Docker-compose example:
|
|
Also available as a ready-to-use [`compose.example.yaml`](compose.example.yaml).
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
services:
|
|
seafile-client:
|
|
restart: always
|
|
image: snegov/seafile-client:0.0.13
|
|
environment:
|
|
LIBRARY_ID: "79867cbf-2944-488d-9105-852463ecdf9e:my_library"
|
|
SERVER_HOST: seafile.example.com
|
|
USERNAME: user
|
|
PASSWORD: password
|
|
SEAFILE_UID: 1000
|
|
SEAFILE_GID: 100
|
|
hostname: dsc
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- /home/johndow/seafile:/dsc/seafile
|
|
- sync-data:/dsc/seafile-data
|
|
container_name: seafile-client
|
|
|
|
volumes:
|
|
sync-data:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Environment variables:
|
|
- `LIBRARY_ID` - library to sync, ID or name. Multiple libraries could be
|
|
separated by colon `:`.
|
|
- `SERVER_HOST` - hostname of your Seafile server, eg: _seafile.example.com_.
|
|
If you're using non-standard port, you can specify it here,
|
|
eg: _seafile.example.com:8080_.
|
|
- `USERNAME` / `PASSWORD` - credentials to access Seafile server.
|
|
- `PASSWORD_FILE` - path to a file holding the password, for Docker Compose
|
|
and Swarm secrets. Use either `PASSWORD` or `PASSWORD_FILE`, never both.
|
|
- `TOKEN` / `TOKEN_FILE` - an API token to authenticate with instead of a
|
|
password. A token takes precedence over a password and can be revoked on the
|
|
server. Use either `TOKEN` or `TOKEN_FILE`, never both.
|
|
- `SEAFILE_UID` / `SEAFILE_GID` - UID/GID of user inside container. You can
|
|
use it to set permissions on synced files. Default values are _1000_ / _1000_.
|
|
- `DELETE_CONFIRM_THRESHOLD` - represents the number of files that require
|
|
confirmation before being deleted simultaneously. Default value is _500_.
|
|
- `DISABLE_VERIFY_CERTIFICATE` - set to _true_ to disable server's certificate
|
|
verification. Default value is _false_. Booleans accept _true_/_false_,
|
|
_1_/_0_, _yes_/_no_ and _on_/_off_, in any case. Note that this setting had no
|
|
effect in released images up to and including 0.0.13: the value reached the
|
|
Seafile daemon capitalised, which it does not recognise, so verification
|
|
stayed on even when the variable was set. The default was never affected.
|
|
- `UPLOAD_LIMIT` / `DOWNLOAD_LIMIT` - upload/download speed limit in B/s
|
|
(bytes per second). Default values are _0_ (unlimited).
|
|
|
|
Numeric variables must be whole, non-negative numbers. A malformed or negative
|
|
value stops the container at startup with a message naming the variable,
|
|
rather than being passed on to the Seafile client.
|
|
|
|
### Using Docker secrets:
|
|
Mount the secret and point `PASSWORD_FILE` at it, so the password never enters
|
|
the environment:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
services:
|
|
seafile-client:
|
|
environment:
|
|
PASSWORD_FILE: /run/secrets/seafile_password
|
|
secrets:
|
|
- seafile_password
|
|
|
|
secrets:
|
|
seafile_password:
|
|
file: ./seafile_password.txt
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A trailing newline in the file is ignored; everything else, including
|
|
surrounding spaces, is part of the secret.
|
|
|
|
The client authenticates `seaf-cli` with an API token rather than the account
|
|
password, so the password never appears in a command line. The token does
|
|
appear there, and command lines are visible to any process in the container.
|
|
This is a limitation of `seaf-cli`, which accepts credentials only as
|
|
arguments. A token can at least be revoked on the server.
|
|
|
|
### Volumes:
|
|
- `/dsc/seafile-data` Seafile client data directory (sync status, etc).
|
|
- `/dsc/seafile` Seafile libraries content.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Some notes
|
|
`LIBRARY_ID` could be library ID or library name. Library ID is a 36-character
|
|
string, which is a part of URI when you open library in webUI. Library name is
|
|
a name you gave to library when you created it.
|
|
|
|
Libraries will be synced in subdirectories of `/dsc/seafile` directory inside
|
|
container. You can mount it to host directory to access files.
|
|
|
|
The subdirectory is named after the library, with whitespace replaced by
|
|
underscores. A library is skipped with a warning when its name cannot be a
|
|
directory of its own: an empty name, `.`, `..`, or a name containing `/`. Two
|
|
libraries whose names would produce the same directory both get their library
|
|
ID appended, so they never share one. Everything is created under the
|
|
libraries directory (`/dsc/seafile`, or the deprecated `/data` when that
|
|
exists); a library name can never place it elsewhere.
|
|
|
|
The container stops gracefully on `docker stop`: it shuts the Seafile daemon
|
|
down and exits with code 0. It exits with a nonzero code and an explanatory
|
|
message when the daemon fails to start or stop within its timeout, instead of
|
|
waiting forever.
|
|
|
|
`hostname` parameter is optional, but it's recommended to set it to some unique
|
|
value, it will be shown in Seafile webUI as client name (`terminal-dsc` in
|
|
given example).
|
|
|
|
`sync-data` volume is optional too, but it's recommended to use it. Otherwise,
|
|
sync status will be lost when container is recreated.
|
|
|
|
At the moment there is no suitable way to confirm deletion of large number of
|
|
files. So, if you're going to delete a lot of files, you should set
|
|
`DELETE_CONFIRM_THRESHOLD` to some larger value.
