I have copy&paste your docker compose script into TrueNAS Scale as an custom installation via a compse YAML file:

services:
  netalertx:
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
      - NET_RAW
      - NET_BIND_SERVICE
      - CHOWN
      - SETUID
      - SETGID
    cap_drop:
      - ALL
    container_name: netalertx
    cpu_shares: 512
    environment:
      GRAPHQL_PORT: ${GRAPHQL_PORT:-20212}
      LISTEN_ADDR: ${LISTEN_ADDR:-0.0.0.0}
      PORT: ${PORT:-20211}
    image: ghcr.io/netalertx/netalertx:latest
    logging:
      options:
        max-file: '3'
        max-size: 10m
    mem_limit: 2048m
    mem_reservation: 1024m
    network_mode: ${NETALERTX_NETWORK_MODE:-host}
    pids_limit: 512
    read_only: True
    restart: unless-stopped
    tmpfs:
      - >-
        /tmp:uid=${NETALERTX_UID:-20211},gid=${NETALERTX_GID:-20211},mode=1700,rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,async,noatime,nodiratime
    volumes:
      - read_only: False
        source: netalertx_data
        target: /data
        type: volume
      - read_only: True
        source: /etc/localtime
        target: /etc/localtime
        type: bind
volumes:
  netalertx_data: Null

Is working for me since a couple of weeks.

Describe the solution you'd like

It will be great to include your app to official TrueNAS app store.

Am I willing to test this? 🧪

• I will do my best to test this feature on the netlertx-dev image when requested within 48h and report bugs to help deliver a great user experience for everyone and not to break existing installations.

Can I help implement this? 👩‍💻👨‍💻

• Yes
• No

Hi @heinemannj and thanks for the suggestion.

@adamoutler what do you think? Looking at https://github.com/truenas/apps/blob/master/CONTRIBUTIONS.md it doesn't seem too difficult I just worry about the support overhead - I don't run TrueNAS and worry I can't debug issues efficiently.

@heinemannj would you be willing to help with maintaining it (mostly version bumps + testing?

[heinemannj]

a) TrueNAS can be installed as a VM on any 64Bit hypervisor. For PROXMOX there will be a community installation helper-script available during the next weeks.

I use two TrueNAS boxes:

• Main system: VM on PROXMOX
• Backup system: Bare Metal on a Beelink ME mini, with 6 * 2 TB NVMe SSD inside this little box

b) Helping by testing of new versions is no problem
c) Supporting with debugging should also not a big issue, if you will guide me

d) Potential issue at my side: I'm on the way to deploy NetAlertX as an LXC at PROXMOX (the hot Bare Metal topic ...)
