@tomasz2101 Try to set ipWhitelist to [ "127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1" ]. If you want to access the mirror from your Linux or Mac machine add their respective IPs too.

@raywo I know that this is strange behaviour of MM and your fix is not according to documentation. I tried that but that fix doesn’t work at all. Additional think is that I’am running container on my mac and i cannot access MM from mac. 192.168.1.176 is my mac local ip. I want to develop new module but i don’t want to do this on rpi.

var config = {
	address: "localhost",
	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: [ "127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "192.168.1.176"],
	language: "en",
	timeFormat: 24,
	units: "metric",

	modules: [
		{
			module: "alert",
		},
		{
			module: "updatenotification",
			position: "top_bar"
		},
		{
			module: "clock",
			position: "top_left"
		},
	]

};

/*************** DO NOT EDIT THE LINE BELOW ***************/
if (typeof module !== "undefined") {module.exports = config;}

@tomasz2101 Why is that not according to documentation?
I have a simliar setup like you. I run docker on my mac and access the mirror instance via my mac it works just fine.

Maybe you should try it without creating your own docker image. Try the solution as described in the MagicMirror documentation.

@raywo i tried

docker run  -d \
                        --publish 8080:8080 \
                        --restart always \
                        --volume ~/magic_mirror/config:/opt/magic_mirror/config \
                        --volume ~/magic_mirror/modules:/opt/magic_mirror/modules \
                        --name magic_mirror \
                        bastilimbach/docker-magicmirror

docker ps

cat config.js

var config = {

};

When im trying to access url http://localhost:8080/ in incognito i got always “localhost didn’t send any data” and there is no information in container about trying to access pare.

@tomasz2101 This looks okay to me. Although the log states "WARNING! Could not find config file. Please create one. Starting with default configuration.".
Where did you put your config.js file? Is it in ~/magic_mirror/config on your mac?

tomasz2101

@raywo The config.js.sample was created automatically. After that i copy it to config.js and restarted container but logs show:

@tomasz2101 And? Does it work?

tomasz2101

@raywo no

@tomasz2101 In my config.js I put "" in the address setting. I also have "::ffff:192.168.2.1/120" included in my ipWhitelist. My home network is 192.168.2.0.

my config.js

var config = {
	address: "", // - "", "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
	             // Default, when address config is left out, is "localhost"
	port: 8080,
	ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.2.1/120", "192.168.2.110", "172.17.0.1"]

  /* module config */
}
