docker support

[drizzt09]

Does anyone have good documentation steps for selfhost docker ?

What's the best clone to use for future updates?

Hi @drizzt09 , so far as I am aware, no one has published a docker for self-hosting. However setting up TImeTracker is pretty relatively straight forward and you can either host on a basic Apache/Mariadb/PHPv8 stack or possibly there is a generic docker AMP container that you can start with.

I am using TimeTracker daily and it meets my needs better than any other open source time tracking app I have found, although it is not being maintained since the death of the developer 2-1/2 years ago . There may be a fork that is being maintained, possibly adding features although I last searched 2025-02-24 and found only https://github.com/Ben0it-T/timetracker . I stayed with the original code here because using Ben0it's fork would require modifying my server config due to changed in the file structure.

My server revolves around docker and the vertical and domain are tied to the reverse proxy within the docker environment. I am sure there is a way for non docker installs to use that but i am not at place in time to learn that so I'm hoping for a proper docker solution to tie in nicely to my existing system.

I am not interested in docker but you could learn enough to create a docker container using the code here that would be similair to the other docker containers you are running. Possibly Ben0it would be interested in working with you (albeit likely a very long shot).

Ya I used copilot last night and finally got it up and running using docker compose.

Got done at 2:30am and only get as far as the dbsetup launched. Have not gone through the setup of that yet.
