         restart: always
         volumes:
             - '/etc/alist:/opt/alist/data'
         ports:
             -'5244:5244'
         environment:
             -PUID=0
             - PGID=0
             - UMASK=022
         container_name: alist
         image: 'xhofe/alist:latest'

If you need to pre-install Aria2, you can use:

If you use a proxy such as v2rayA to access Google Drive, you need to add --net=host to use the host network, for example:

1

docker run -d --restart=always -v /etc/alist:/opt/alist/data -p 5244:5244 -e PUID=0 -e PGID=0 -e UMASK=022 --net=host --name ="alist" xhofe/alist:latest

2.2, development version

A key installation:

1

docker run -d --restart=always -v /etc/alist:/opt/alist/data -p 5244:5244 -e PUID=0 -e PGID=0 -e UMASK=022 --name="alist" xhofe /alist:main

         environment:
             -PUID=0
             - PGID=0
             - UMASK=022
         container_name: alist
         image: 'xhofe/alist:main'

Other parameters are the same as the release version.

3. Use

Reverse proxy 127.0.0.1:5244, you can access.

After startup, you need to view the default password:

1

docker exec -it alist ./alist admin

After obtaining the password, you can access

https://your.alist.website/@login

log in page.

As I write this, I remember the first time I did it, because I didn’t know that I could see “login” when I scrolled down to the bottom, and I spent a long time looking for where the login page is XD

4. Avoid pits

In the Docker environment, access to 127.0.0.1 is the container, not the host, so if Aria2 runs on 127.0.0.1:6800, and the network segment used by Docker is 172.17.0.1/24, then Aria2 should be The address is set to 172.17.0.1:6800.

5. Experience

After the test, I think the user experience is much better than programs such as Oneindex (old antique, almost unusable), Olaindex (good-looking, but not very friendly configuration), which is reflected in the following aspects:

1. Can be mounted in a subdirectory

I use /OneDrive as the root directory of all OneDrive accounts, so it can be accessed through /OneDrive/1 without putting everything in the root directory.

2. Many types are supported

Alist supports so many storage types that I don't even have time to explore them all...

3. Native support for Aria2
4. Easily copy and move across storage policies
5. Automatically refresh the token

I think this is the most important point. If you don’t visit Olaindex for a period of time, the visit will become 500. After looking at it, you will find that the Refresh_Token has expired. And Alist will automatically refresh every 2 hours, no need to manually refresh.
