Create work directories:
mkdir -p /opt/traccar/logs
-
Get default traccar.xml:
docker run \ --rm \ --entrypoint cat \ traccar/traccar:latest \ /opt/traccar/conf/traccar.xml > /opt/traccar/traccar.xml
-
Edit traccar.xml: https://www.traccar.org/configuration-file/
-
Create container:
docker run \ --name traccar \ --hostname traccar \ --detach --restart unless-stopped \ --publish 80:8082 \ --publish 5000-5150:5000-5150 \ --publish 5000-5150:5000-5150/udp \ --volume /opt/traccar/logs:/opt/traccar/logs:rw \ --volume /opt/traccar/traccar.xml:/opt/traccar/conf/traccar.xml:ro \ traccar/traccar:latest
The default when executing the above docker run
command is an internal H2 database but this should only be for basic use.
The docker run
command also doesn't create a mount point on the host for the data folder which will cause the database to be lost when the container is recreated. This point can be mitigated by adding the line -v /var/docker/traccar/data:/opt/traccar/data:rw \
after -v /var/docker/traccar/traccar.xml:/opt/traccar/conf/traccar.xml:ro \
but it will still be using the H2 database.
The recommended solution for production use is to link to an external MySQL database and update the configuration .xml
-file according to the Traccar MySQL documentation and using the docker run
command as-is.
