Github Config for RTL-SDR Streaming on Linux with Docker

[mzac]

Not sure if anyone else has posted anything like this but I had to re-build my streaming Raspberry Pi today so I decided to dockerize the setup so it would be easier if I had to set it up again.

Please feel free to try it out and submit any issues or PRs on Github

This works great on my old Raspberry Pi 2!

thanks for posting this. I am giving it a try. Stumbled through a couple little issues early on but now I am at this point:

pi@raspberrypi:/opt/docker-rtl_sdr-broadcastify $ docker build -t "docker-rtl_sdr-broadcastify:latest"

"docker build" requires exactly 1 argument.

See 'docker build --help'.



Usage: docker build [OPTIONS] PATH | URL | -



Build an image from a Dockerfile



Is there something amiss in the build command listed in your instructions? I copied and pasted it.

I think you forgot the period (.) at the end

docker build -t "docker-rtl_sdr-broadcastify:latest" .

docker build -t "docker-rtl_sdr-broadcastify:latest" .

You are correct, thanks. Never seen a line with a dot like that before.

You are correct, thanks. Never seen a line with a dot like that before.

The dot tells it place the image nto the current directory.
