Deploying to Synology and Unraid

The Docker image used to process results from DeepStack.ai can be installed on systems like Synology or Unraid that support loading images from Docker Hub. The configuration is a more manual process than simply using docker-compose.yml but it does work. It also assumes you already have Deepstack AI running (perhaps as another Docker container on the Synology or Unraid server).

1. Download the node-deepstackai-trigger:latest image
2. Configure a container using the image with the correct environment variables and volume mounts

Required environment variables

The following environment variables must be configured on the container:

Environment variable	Description	Example
DEEPSTACK_URI	The URI for the DeepStack AI server.	http://192.168.1.170:5000/
TZ	The timezone of the local machine. A list of valid timezones is available on Wikipedia. Use any value from the TZ database name column.	America/Los_Angeles

Optional environment variables

The following environment variables are optional for the container configuation:

Environment variable	Description	Example
VERBOSE	Controls the level of output logging. If false or omitted then only startup messages, warnings, errors, and successful AI detection are logged.	`true

Required volume mounts

The following volumes must be mounted:

Container mount point	Description	Example
/aiinput	The folder that contains the images to analyze.	docker/aiinput:/aiinput
/config	The folder that contains triggers.json, mqtt.json, and telegram.json.	docker/aiconfig:/config
/datastore	A folder for temporary data storage.	localstore:/datastore
