Docker image for Hangoutsbot⁠ client.

⁠Running the Container

First create a named data volume to hold the persistent config 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

⁠Optional 'docker run' Arguments

--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.
