Synology NAS systems supports docker and provides an easy UI. In that way you can simply install Phobox on your NAS using docker without command-line knowledge. Do the following steps to install docker and phobox.

Installation

  • Install docker on your Synology NAS via "Package Center"
  • Start the docker app
  • Open the registry section and find "milchreis/phobox"
  • Download the version with tag "latest" (this could take a few minutes)

  • Now, open the image section and first click on "phobox:latest" and second on "Launch"
  • Choose a name for the container (f.e. "phobox")
  • Open the "advanced settings"
  • Set "Enable auto-restart"
  • To setup your photo storage path click on "Volume" and "Add Folder". Choose an existing photo directory or create new one. The "mount path" has to be "/src/phobox"
  • Phobox runs on port 8080. If you want to change it, open "Port Settings" and change "Auto" under "Local port" to your favorite one.

  • Click "Apply" to confirm the settings
  • Click "Next" and "Apply" the summary

Now a docker container with phobox is running on your Synology NAS. You can access phobox on a webbrowser. Use the NAS IP address and the selected port to open it (f. e. http://192.168.1.10:8080)
