Donation Edition Docker

Posts: 2 · MrWuf 9 May 2023, 03:26

I recently made a donation to gain access to the Donation Edition. Does anyone have experience or a guide to installing the Donation Edition as a Docker container? I would like to install it on my Unraid server but am relatively new to Docker.

You would have to create your own Docker container with your specific copy of the software. Docker isn't officially supported so you'd be responsible for any of the future updates also

I also want to install the donation version to docker on my NAS.
There is a docker version for the normal FreeFileSync Version: https://github.com/jlesage/docker-freefilesync

and there is also a feature request for it:
https://github.com/jlesage/docker-freefilesync/issues/17

In the ticket this is mentioned:
To my knowledge, the donation version is a different binary and it is not open-source. Probably that the license key doesn't activate new features, but just allows using the binary.
In summary, the key cannot be used with the open-source version this containers implements.
