Getting docker to work?

[Trentan]

Hi there - all but working (docker install) getting error:

Trying this step from cmd prompt:
docker run --net=host -v /path/to/your/conf:/opt/googolplex-theater/conf ghcr.io/yuzawa-san/googolplex-theater:VERSION

rebranded for my machine- (eg trying to point the C:Temp drive)

C:\Temp>docker run --net=host -v C:/temp yuzawa/googolplex-theater:latest

Returns error:
ParseException: cast-config file does not exist: /opt/googolplex-theater/src/dist/conf/cast_config.json
usage: googolplex-theater [-a ] [-c ] [-h] [-i
<IFACE_NAME_OR_IP>] [-p <PORT_NUM>]
-a,--app-id cast application ID
-c,--cast-config cast config json file
-h,--help show usage
-i,--interface <IFACE_NAME_OR_IP> network interface name or IP address
to use for service discovery
-p,--port <PORT_NUM> server port number

I can see the missing file created in the docker volumes -
- but no luck!

Any help greatly appreciated - thank you.

i think the volume arg needs to take the form /path/on/local/volume:/opt/googolplex-theater/conf but windows uses that : so that may throw it off. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35315996/how-do-i-mount-a-docker-volume-while-using-a-windows-host. so maybe something like this:

docker run --net=host -v /c/temp:/opt/googolplex-theater/conf yuzawa/googolplex-theater:latest

i do not have a windows test environment, so maybe something is broken with the file path discovery within the app itself.

unrelated, but i put off version 2 of this project during the pandemic, but i think maybe given the increased interest i may start testing and preparing for a new release. NOTE: if/when that happens, the config is now a yaml instead of JSON, but no change is needed on your end right now.

Thanks for your help I'll give it a go and let you know (and if I can't get it to work for windows will go to Linux or something else, or look at how the volume is mounted in the code).

I can't believe Google have not done something themselves for this, your concept and code will be so convenient.

Thank you.

Yeah tried that and a few other combos, still no luck - I don't think mounting the file store correctly (where the volume is mapped). Need someone who is a windows expert to get it to work - Looks like i'll invest in a Raspberry Pi. Mind you, I checked and google have allowed streaming from multiple tabs now to separate devices (still can't stream same content to both! need separate tabs!)
