Docker image to run a Pokemon Go Bot from https://github.com/jabbink/PokemonGoBot (develop)

Based on anapsix/alpine-java:8_jdk

Install Docker

Follow these instructions to get Docker running on your server.

Tags

Two versions of image exist :

• 1.0.0: no privilege needed, pull develop Pokemon Go Bot and run it from source
• 1.0.0-tc: extended privileges needed to control traffic and limit requests/secondes, pull develop and run it from source

Thanks to fixes of requests spamming in bot stack, latest is now without traffic control.

Download

Get the trusted build from the Docker Hub registry:

docker pull babfrag/docker-pokemongobot

or download and compile the source yourself from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/babfrag/docker-PokemonGoBot.git
cd docker-PokemonGoBot
docker build -t babfrag/docker-pokemongobot .

How to use this image

Environment variables

This Docker image uses mandatory environment variables that override the bot config.properties defaults values, that can be declared in an env file (see pogobot.env.example file):

pogo_username=<google or ptc login>
pogo_password=<google or ptc password>
pogo_latitude=<starting latitude like 1.50>
pogo_longitude=<starting longitude like 1.50>

You can specify any other variables to override properties using pattern :

pogo_<property_to_override>=<custom value>

Example : if you want to override transfer_cp_threshold setting, add the following env variable:

pogo_transfer_cp_threshold=<your custom value>

Start a new Docker container with the following command (replace ./pogobot.env with your own env file) :

This command uses defaults gui ports, of course you can customize them.

This container needs to run w/ privileged so the traffic control trick can be done (-d --privileged) tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 300ms rate 56kbit

This avoids "RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted" error.

docker run \
    --name pogobot \
    --env-file ./pogobot.env \
    -d --privileged \
    -p 8001:8001 \
    babfrag/docker-pokemongobot

docker-compose

This command uses defaults gui ports, of course you can customize them.

pogobot:
    image: babfrag/docker-pokemongobot
    privileged: true
    env_file:
     - <path_to_env_file>
    ports:
     - 8001:8001
    volumes:
     - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro

Where did the GUI go?

The GUI is now hosted on http://pogo.abb.ink/RocketTheme/

This URL is also shown in the console when you launch the bot.

Let's catch some of them ! ✨🎉🚀✨
