Asterisk PBX Docker image

REFACTOR! I started massive refactor, considering comments received in the issues and private emails. Thank you all for the feedback! Once ready, This readme will be updated, right away please look to the existing docker tags on hub

The smallest Docker image with Asterisk PBX https://hub.docker.com/r/andrius/asterisk/

This image is based on Alpine Linux image, which is only a 5MB image, and contains Asterisk PBX.

Total size of this image for latest tag (based on Alpine linux) is:

And for debian-stretch-slim-15-current .

Custom UID/GID

By default, Asterisk will run as default user (asterisk) with UID and GID assigned by alpine linux, but it's possible to specify then through environment variables:

  • ASTERISK_UID
  • ASTERISK_GID (note, GID is not supported in debian releases)

Default asterisk user will be re-created with new UID and GID

In given example, ID's of current host user will be used to start, that will fix permissions issues on logs volume:

docker run -ti --rm \
  -e ASTERISK_UID=`id -u` \
  -e ASTERISK_GID=`id -g` \
  -v ${PWD}/logs:/var/log/asterisk \
  andrius/asterisk

Alternative user

It is possible to specifty other than asterisk user to start through environment variable ASTERISK_USER:

docker run -ti --rm -e ASTERISK_USER=root andrius/asterisk
