Start docker server on boot

[IZeeLikeEyeZee]

Hey is there any way to set the docker container to start on boot? Since it seems that if snap cam is started on boot and docker isnt that I need to start docker, then restart snap cam for everything to work.

Replace line 25-26 in docker-compose.yml with this code

  webproxy:
    restart: always
    image: nginx

That should do the trick.

Hi, sorry to reopen an old discussion, just wanted to ask why this doesn't work for mine? I still have to open Docker desktop and manually start the containers when I open my computer. I also find that Snap camera takes a little long to start whenever I quit then reopen the shortcut, take maybe 2-3 minutes everytime.

Docker Desktop -> Settings -> Open Docker Dashboard at startup

Ok, try this:

Open a new Terminal inside your server directory and run the command below to update the docker-compose.yml configuration:

docker compose up
