Gazee is a WebApp Comic Reader for your favorite digital comics. Reach and read your comic library from any web connected device with a modern web browser.

Supported Architectures

Our images support multiple architectures such as x86-64, arm64 and armhf. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker here and our announcement here.

Simply pulling linuxserver/gazee should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

Architecture Tag
x86-64 amd64-latest
arm64 arm64v8-latest
armhf arm32v6-latest

Usage

Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container from this image.

docker

docker create \
  --name=gazee \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -p 4242:4242 \
  -v </path/to/appdata/config>:/config \
  -v <path to comics>:/comics \
  -v <path to mylar data>:/mylar \
  -v <path to SSL certs>:/certs \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/gazee

docker-compose

Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas.

---
version: "2"
services:
  gazee:
    image: linuxserver/gazee
    container_name: gazee
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
    volumes:
      - </path/to/appdata/config>:/config
      - <path to comics>:/comics
      - <path to mylar data>:/mylar
      - <path to SSL certs>:/certs
    ports:
      - 4242:4242
    restart: unless-stopped

Parameters

Docker images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate <external>:<internal> respectively. For example, -p 8080:80 would expose port 80 from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port 8080 outside the container.

Ports (-p)

Parameter Function
4242 WebUI

Environment Variables (-e)

Env Function
PUID=1000 for UserID - see below for explanation
PGID=1000 for GroupID - see below for explanation

Volume Mappings (-v)

Volume Function
/config Where Gazee should store config files.
/comics Path to comics folder.
/mylar Path to Mylar DB.
/certs Where SSL certs should be stored.

User / Group Identifiers

When using volumes (-v flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:

  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)

Application Setup

Webui can be found at your-ip:4242

Default username and password for the web interface:

  • Username: admin
  • Password: gazee

Click the gear icon to go to the settings page.

Change the default admin password or add a new admin and remove the admin user altogether.

Comic path should be set to /comics

Optional Mylar DB path should be set to /mylar

Optional path for certificates and keys should be set to /certs

After you update the settings, Gazee will restart and begin an intial scan of your comic library.

Happy Reading!
