DeFli Docker Installation Guide
This guide will take you through how to install DeFli via Docker Compose
Step 1.
With your SDR UNPLUGGED run this script from your command line, this will install all the pre-requisites.
bash <(wget -q -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdr-enthusiasts/docker-install/main/docker-install.sh)
Step 2.
Now plug your SDR in and run the following command
lsusb
The output will look something like the below text, take note of the BUS number and DEVICE number
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:2832 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL2832U DVB-T
Step 3.
Now we are going to create the docker container for readsb. The first command will create a blank file for you to populate
sudo nano docker-compose-readsb.yml
In to this file we are going to paste the container elements, copy the text in bold below and make sure to change the underlined fields to your own specific requirements. Once you have done this press "ctrl + x" to save it and then "y" to confirm.
version: "2.0"
volumes:
readsbpb_rrd:
readsbpb_autogain:
services:

container_name: readsb
hostname: readsb
restart: always
devices:
- /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb
ports:
- 8080:8080
- 30005:30005
environment:
- TZ=Australia/Perth
- READSB_DCFILTER=true
- READSB_DEVICE_TYPE=rtlsdr

- readsbpb_autogain:/run/autogain
- /proc/diskstats:/proc/diskstats:ro
tmpfs:
- /run/readsb:size=64M
- /var/log:size=32M
Step 4.
We are now going to test this container by using the following command. If everything is working correctly you should see an airport departure style output.
docker exec -it readsb viewadsb
Step 5.
We are now going to create the container for tar1090 first run the command below to create the blank file as with step 3.
sudo nano docker-compose-tar1090.yml
In to the empty file you are going to paste in the text in bold below. Remember to change the fields highlighted to your own specification.
version: "3.8"
services:
tar1090:
image: ghcr.io/sdr-enthusiasts/docker-tar1090:latest
tty: true
container_name: tar1090
restart: always
environment:
- TZ=Australia/Perth
- BEASTHOST=readsb
- LAT=-33.33333
- LONG=111.11111
volumes:
- /opt/adsb/tar1090/globe_history:/var/globe_history
- /opt/adsb/tar1090/timelapse1090:/var/timelapse1090
- /opt/adsb/tar1090/graphs1090:/var/lib/collectd
- /proc/diskstats:/proc/diskstats:ro
# - /run/airspy_adsb:/run/airspy_adsb

- 8078:80
tmpfs:
- /run:exec,size=64M
- /var/log
Viewing Your Maps
If all has installed correctly you will be available to view your data and maps at the following addresses:
http://dockerhost:8078/ to access the tar1090 web interface.
http://dockerhost:8078/?replay to see a replay of past data
http://dockerhost:8078/?heatmap to see the heatmap for the past 24 hours.
http://dockerhost:8078/?heatmap&realHeat to see a different heatmap for the past 24 hours.
http://dockerhost:8078/graphs1090/ to see performance graphs
Step 6.
The final step is to send your data to our servers. Please follow the docker instructions here
