Docker available?

[MassiPi]

Hello, i've a working mikopbx install, but i'd be glad to test this! However, i'm not sure i understood the available install methods. I see the requirement for docker and docker compose, but no image available, and i'm not sure i can turn the content of the install.sh into a working compose (that's why i'd like to install this through a portainer installation..)
Am i missing something?
Thanks

Hi MassiPi,
I am know expert on this but I just ran the install.sh script from the cli, which installs 4 containers, once installed you can then use Portainer to manage the Containers, screen shot below, hope this helps

[MassiPi]

yesterday i created a test lxc just to try an installation, and it builds up containers so i don't se a direct way to install it without touching the host OS, that i'd like to avoid..
more than that, i've seen the app is fully in german, i can't use it 🤣
and also it seems to me there are very little config options for the trunk, probably i'd not be in the position to take my connection up (and i've not found any way to modify config files directly)
so probably it's not time for me to try this tool :)

yes it is in German but i used google translate on the pages and that worked ok for testing, yes I cant get the trunks to work with my VOIP provider and I can not even call extension but if i dial 1000 which is a group of extensions ext 100 and 101 t then rings them so yes it's not usable at the moment, I just wanted to see how it worked with Home Assistant and that part seems to work but still not usable, maybe one day it will al work

the project is interesting, i had just installed my first pbx, but it's just for fun since i do not use my fixed line and i wanted to create an ivr to troll che spammer. But if this becomes something useful i'm for sure interested, also in testing, proposing and debugging. But honestly i see as a problem being german. I mean, i've seen posts here and there announcing in english this tool and then it's german? not sure it's the best way (in 2026), but those are just my 2 cents :)
the idea of integration with HA however is great

Hi @MassiPi,

thanks for your interest! Let me clarify:

How the installation works

GonoPBX uses local Docker builds (not pre-built images from Docker Hub). The install.sh script is essentially a wrapper that:

1. Generates secure passwords and creates a .env file
2. Runs docker compose up -d --build

That's it. The docker-compose.yml and the Dockerfiles for each service are all in the repository. The installer just makes the initial setup more convenient – it's not required.

Manual install (without install.sh)

If you prefer to do it manually (e.g. for Portainer):

git clone https://github.com/ankaios76/gonopbx.git
cd gonopbx
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env – set EXTERNAL_IP, passwords, etc.
docker compose up -d --build

For Portainer: point a "Stack" at the cloned directory with the docker-compose.yml and set the environment variables from .env.example. The images are built locally from the included Dockerfiles, so Portainer's "build" option needs to be available.

Language

You're right – the UI is currently German-only. Multi-language support (EN/DE) is on the roadmap. For now, browser auto-translate works reasonably well as @crawtechnology mentioned.

Trunk configuration

GonoPBX currently has built-in profiles for German providers (Plusnet, Telekom, dus.net) plus a "Custom Provider" option where you can set any SIP server, username, and password. If your provider uses standard SIP registration, it should work with the custom profile. If you need specific SIP headers or settings, feel free to open a feature request with your provider's details and I'll look into adding support.

Hope that helps!

Can you tell me which provider that is and which product? I'll take a look at it.

it's iliad italy, home contract, they do not expect me to use voip out of their router, but it can be done :) i had a working config on openwrt (plain asterisk), but to have both inboud and outbound call working i had to create a double aor, that i assume is not standard.. but it works :)
i'm not aware of any tech doc from iliad, honestly

Please test this and let me know.

Hello,
just reinstalled and i have some more questions :)

1. debugging -> during install i have a warning. Nothing seems broken.
   => WARN: FromAsCasing: 'as' and 'FROM' keywords' casing do not match (line 2)

2. if i want to use bind mounts in place of volumes i have to manually modify the docker compose right? (so manual install)

3. i manually installed and i have german GUI ahahah ok i had to look to the install script for this :)

4. i see you created a new config for iliad, are you using the "From user" to create a second aor? for reference, today my aors are that easy and basically thei differs for the frequency, so i can't understand the meaning of the field:

[SIP-TRUNK-OUT]
type = aor
contact = sip:voip.iliad.it
outbound_proxy = sip:proxy-voip-2.iliad.it\;lr
qualify_frequency = 0

[SIP-TRUNK-IN]
type = aor
contact = sip:voip.iliad.it
qualify_frequency = 25

5. lastly, the biggest problem. My isp is fully ipv6, no ipv4 for sip connection. Am i wrong or your pbx is totally ipv4? for the other pbx i'm using, i'm using the network: host method, just wondering if i have to try in this way or you have any idea.

(bonus 6: i've installed gonopbx in a lxc under proxmox. in "system information" the memory use gets the information of the proxmox host and not of the lxc, very strange :). The same is the uptime.)
