wiorca / docker-pia Goto Github PK

I was trying to use this along with transmission-qt inside of a docker-compose stack:

---
version: "3.5"

services:
  docker-pia:
    image: wiorca/docker-pia
    container_name: docker-pia
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000

      - PIA_PASSWORD=<REDACTED>
      - PIA_DEBUG_LOGGING=false
      - PIA_PROTOCOL=openvpn
      - PIA_PORT_FORWARD=false
      - PIA_REGION=auto
    volumes:
      - /location/on/host:/config
    dns:
      - 8.8.8.8
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    ports:
      # for transmission
      - 9091:9091
      - 51413:51413
    restart: unless-stopped

  transmission:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/transmission:latest
    container_name: transmission
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=America/Los_Angeles

I couldn't seem to access transmission's port 9091. I'm guessing that PIA is doing something to block local network access. Is there a setting to overcome this? Thanks!

The README.md lists ways to mount config in and states:

The home directory of docker_user, and where configuration files will live

What configuration files go here? I tried running this image with an empty directory here and nothing was ever written to this. Does piactl read from it somehow?

Or is this direction just meant so that the docker user can have persistence across restarts, and users can use it however they please?

Would it be possible to add an Open Source license to this repo so that others may more easily use / extend it? The MIT or GPLv3 licenses are common choices but if you are interested in exploring the options I recommend checking out: https://choosealicense.com/

I am running the container through docker compose.
It works fine on first use but if I restart the container it then just is in a constant loop of restarting.
The message the container spits out when attached is:
Already logged into account {account name}
