linuxserver/fleet
Fleet provides an online web interface which displays a set of maintained images from one or more owned repositories.
Supported Architectures
Our images support multiple architectures such as x86-64, arm64 and armhf. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.
Simply pulling linuxserver/fleet should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.
The architectures supported by this image are:
| Architecture | Tag |
|---|---|
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v7-latest |

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container.

Parameters
Container images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.
| Parameter | Function |
|---|---|
-p 8080 |
Http port |
-e PUID=1000 |
for UserID - see below for explanation |
-e PGID=1000 |
for GroupID - see below for explanation |
-e fleet_admin_authentication_type=DATABASE |
A switch to define how Fleet manages user logins. If set to DATABASE, see the related optional params. Can be set to either DATABASE or PROPERTIES. |
-e fleet_database_url=jdbc:mariadb://<url>:3306/fleet |
The full JDBC connection string to the Fleet database |
-e fleet_database_username=fleet_user |
The username with the relevant GRANT permissions for the database |
-e fleet_database_password=dbuserpassword |
The database user's password. |
-e fleet_dockerhub_username=dockerhub_user |
The username of a member of your repository's owners team. This is used to get the list of your (and only your) namespaces in Docker Hub. |
-e fleet_dockerhub_password=password |
The password for the Docker Hub user. |
-e fleet_refresh_interval=60 |
The time in minutes for how often Fleet should scan the Docker Hub repositories. |
-e fleet_admin_secret=randomstring |
A string used as part of the password key derivation process. Not mandatory. Only used if authentication type is set to DATABASE. |
-e fleet_admin_username=admin |
The name of the sole admin user, if authentication type is set to PROPERTIES. |
-e fleet_admin_password=secretpassword |
The password for the sole admin user, if authentication type is set to PROPERTIES. |
-e fleet_skip_sync_on_startup=true |
A flag to tell the app not to run an initial synchronisation process when it starts up |
-v /config |
The primary config file and rolling log files. |
User / Group Identifiers
When using volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID.
Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.
In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:
$ id username
uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)
Application Setup
Navigate to http://your_ip_here:8080 to display the home page. If DATABASE is selected as the preferred authentication process, ensure that you set up an
initial user via http://your_ip_here:8080/setup. Once done, that page will no longer be available. A restart is preferable as it will remove the page altogether.
Once complete, you can log into the app via http://your_ip_here:8080/login to manage your repositories.
Support Info
- Shell access whilst the container is running:
docker exec -it fleet /bin/bash - To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:
docker logs -f fleet - container version number
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' fleet
- image version number
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' linuxserver/fleet
Updating Info
Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (ie. nextcloud, plex), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the Application Setup section above to see if it is recommended for the image.
Below are the instructions for updating containers:
Via Docker Run/Create
- Update the image:
docker pull linuxserver/fleet - Stop the running container:
docker stop fleet - Delete the container:
docker rm fleet - Recreate a new container with the same docker create parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your
/configfolder and settings will be preserved) - Start the new container:
docker start fleet - You can also remove the old dangling images:
docker image prune
Via Docker Compose
- Update all images:
docker-compose pull- or update a single image:
docker-compose pull fleet
- or update a single image:
- Let compose update all containers as necessary:
docker-compose up -d- or update a single container:
docker-compose up -d fleet
- or update a single container:
- You can also remove the old dangling images:
docker image prune
Via Watchtower auto-updater (especially useful if you don't remember the original parameters)
- Pull the latest image at its tag and replace it with the same env variables in one run:
docker run --rm \ -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \ containrrr/watchtower \ --run-once fleet - You can also remove the old dangling images:
docker image prune
Building locally
If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:
git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-fleet.git
cd docker-fleet
docker build \
--no-cache \
--pull \
-t linuxserver/fleet:latest .
The ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware using multiarch/qemu-user-static
docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static:register --reset
Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with -f Dockerfile.aarch64.
Versions
- 02.07.19: - Stop container if fleet fails.
- 19.05.19: - Use new base images for arm versions.
- 01.04.19: - Initial Release
