Docker image for Hangoutsbot client.

First create a named data volume to hold the persistent config data:

docker volume create --name hangoutsbot-data

First run & authentication

The first time you run the bot you have to authenticate it manually. To do this run the bot interactively and follow the instructions given:

docker run -it --rm -v hangoutsbot-data:/etc/hangoutsbot phlak/hangoutsbot

Running the bot

Once authenticated you can use Ctrl + C to kill the running container and run a daemonized instance of the bot image:

docker run -dt -v hangoutsbot-data:/etc/hangoutsbot --name hangoutsbot phlak/hangoutsbot

-e TZ=America/Phoenix - Set the timezone for your server. You can find your timezone in this list of timezones. Use the (case sensitive) value from the TZ column. If left unset, timezone will be UTC.

--restart unless-stopped - Always restart the container regardless of the exit status, but do not start it on daemon startup if the container has been put to a stopped state before. See the Docker restart policies for additional details.
