Customizing ports

[shizenyasuya]

I'm having trouble viewing the web UI, and I think since I refreshed my image, it may be having trouble with other ports as well.

The default web UI uses port 5000, but this is the same port that's used by Blue Iris's code project AI. I can try changing that port, but I know I had it working before on port 5001 using the following docker-compose.yml text (password / username redacted obviously)

version: '2.4'
services:
wyze-bridge:
container_name: wyze-bridge
restart: unless-stopped
image: mrlt8/wyze-bridge:latest
ports:
- 1935:1935 # RTMP
- 8554:8554 # RTSP
- 8888:8888 # HLS
- 8889:8889 #WebRTC
- 8189:8189/udp # WebRTC/ICE
- 5001:5001 # WEB-UI
environment:
# [REQUIRED] Fill the following two lines:
- WYZE_EMAIL=email
- WYZE_PASSWORD=password
# [OPTIONAL] IP Address of the host to enable WebRTC e.g.,:
# - WB_IP=192.168.1.122

I recently had to purge my containers and images and I re-installed my wyze cam under a new name, and docker appears to show the bridge working, but it looks like it's trying to use the default port 5000 as well, and I don't understand why. Below is the output in my docker desktop log.

Edit: I have tried using the info from https://github.com/mrlt8/docker-wyze-bridge/wiki/WebUI#custom-ports but it hasn't made any difference, even after deleting my container and re-building.

You should be able to ignore that in the log messages as that's the internal port that it's listening on.

You'll need to update your yaml to point to the internal port:

- 5001:5000 # WEB-UI

Note that the second port is 5000 as that's the port on the container which is listening on port 5000.

Thank you so much for this suggestion. I am re-installing docker desktop right now just to try it out. I thought there might have been something wrong with the port configuration, and I guess I must have over-written my previous working version with the generic version at some point. I'll update if this works or not.

You're amazing. Thank you. It's up and running now. It's silly I only have one wyze cam but thanks to the sunk-cost fallacy, I can't bring myself to get rid of it even though it takes this much extra effort and system resources to get running in blueiris.

this change (5001:5000) was also necessary to run the sever on a macOS since port 5000 is already used by ControlCenter
