UniFi is a web based managment software for Ubiquiti devices.</br>
|
|
|
|
|
It is written in Java, utilizing the Spring Framework
|
|
|
|
|
and using MongoDB as a database.

# Migration from UniFi Controller

* Do the backup of your old instance through webgui settings.
|

|
|
* Down the old container.

Previously called [UniFi Controller](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-unifi-controller)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ubiquiti morons decided to change the name to UniFi Network Application.
|
|
|
|
|
Then also tried to go for name UniFi Network Server with claim that it is for
|
|
|
|
|
selfhosted version, when not on their hardware. In docks even in downloads they
|
|
|
|
|
mostly use the `application` name.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Though love that inside the webgui version its just `Network 8.0.28`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With this name change, linuxserver.io also changed the deployment so that
|
|
|
|
|
mongo database is now a separate container.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Would not be a big issue, if mongo would not [suck big time](https://github.com/docker-library/mongo/issues/174)
|
|
|
|
|
at initiating databases in new deployments, making it unnecessary complicated.
|
|
|
|
|
Or if linuxserver.io could make a decision and write
|
|
|
|
|
[cleaner instructions](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-unifi-network-application/issues/13)
|
|
|
|
|
instead of trying to teach to fish.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Also linuxserver.io official stance is to use older version of mongo 3.6 - 4.4<br>
|
|
|
|
|
Raspberry Pi users need to go for that 3.6
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Big help to get this going cleanly was also [this repo](https://github.com/GiuseppeGalilei/Ubiquiti-Tips-and-Tricks),
|
|
|
|
|
from [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/18stenb/unifi_network_application_easy_docker_deployment/)
|
|
|
|
|
reddit post.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
First time Ive seen configs used in compose this way, saved bother of doing
|
|
|
|
|
a separate `mongo-init.js` file that for some reason did not work for me.
|
|
|
|
|
I improved it a bit by using variables.
