# Docker Container for Syncthing
Use the Dockerfile in this repo, or pull the `syncthing/syncthing` image
2019-02-25 20:37:59 +00:00
from Docker Hub.

2019-02-25 20:37:59 +00:00
Use the `/var/syncthing` volume to have the synchronized files available on the
host. You can add more folders and map them as you prefer.

Note that Syncthing runs as UID 1000 and GID 1000 by default. These may be
altered with the ``PUID`` and ``PGID`` environment variables.

## Example Usage
2018-04-09 08:48:37 +00:00
```
$ docker pull syncthing/syncthing
$ docker run -p 8384:8384 -p 22000:22000 \
-v /wherever/st-sync:/var/syncthing \
syncthing/syncthing:latest
```
2019-02-25 20:37:59 +00:00
Note that local device discovery will not work with the above command, resulting in poor local transfer rates if local device addresses are not manually configured.
2018-04-09 08:48:37 +00:00
To allow local discovery, the docker host network can be used instead:
```
$ docker pull syncthing/syncthing
$ docker run --network=host \
-v /wherever/st-sync:/var/syncthing \
syncthing/syncthing:latest
```
Be aware that syncthing alone is now in control of what interfaces and ports it
listens on. You can edit the syncthing configuration to change the defaults if
there are conflicts.
