using .env in a docker container

[albinger]

First off, Great app!

I have pulled down the repo and set it up in a local docker container. Works great!
However, I cannot seem to get it to default to my callsign and gridsquare/location for new browsers on my network. I'd love to be able to pull it up on a smart tv or tablet or whatever and since it is connecting to my instance and not a public instance it should have my info pre-populated instead of N0CALL.

after a bit of troubleshooting I had some success adding VITE_ to the variables in the .env file:

Your amateur radio callsign

VITE_CALLSIGN=XXXX

Your Maidenhead grid locator (4 or 6 character)

VITE_LOCATOR=XX99xx

That at least got my callsign into the index-monolithic.html on the running container but there are still a lot of references to N0CALL in there and the default first load behavior still leads to the code standard N0CALL and gridsquare.

Probably a lot of work to re-code all of those N0CALL hard codes to a default config file but I'd find it useful.

See my other post. you need to make sure your docker compose file is loading the .env file.
