Docker is a prerequisite. On debian and derived distributions (this includes Raspberry Pi OS, DietPi, Moode Audio, Volumio, OSMC), we can install the necessary packages using the following commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y docker.io docker-compose
sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER

The last command adds the current user to the docker group. This is not mandatory; if you choose to skip this step, you might need to execute docker-compose commands by prepending sudo.

Use the included script to build the image:

./build.sh

You can use the published images or the one you build by yourself. See the repo here.

docker run \
    -d \
    --name roon-bridge \
    --restart always \
    --network host \
    --device /dev/snd \
    --label com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=false \
    giof71/roon-bridge:latest

---
version: "3"

services:
  roon-bridge:
    container_name: roon-bridge
    image: giof71/roon-bridge:latest
    network_mode: host
    devices:
      - /dev/snd:/dev/snd
    labels:
      - com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=false
    restart: always

Watchtower is an excellent tool, but it can disrupt your listening experience if an image update can trigger a container recreation.
I am therefore keeping watchtower disabled in my examples.

It is possible to use this solution for easy installation of Roon Bridge on Moode Audio and Volumio.
It is required to have a ssh connection to the Moode/Volumio audio box. In order to enable ssh on Volumio, refer to this page.
Those two platforms do not ship docker out of the box (unsurprisingly), so docker installation is required. See Docker Installation earlier in this page.
