Pi-Hole + Unbound - 1 Container

Description

This Docker deployment runs both Pi-Hole and Unbound in a single container.

The base image for the container is the official Pi-Hole container, with an extra build step added to install the Unbound resolver directly into to the container based on instructions provided directly by the Pi-Hole team.

Usage

First create a .env file to substitute variables for your deployment.

Pi-hole environment variables

Vars and descriptions replicated from the official pihole container:

Variable	Default	Value	Description
TZ	UTC	<Timezone>	Set your timezone to make sure logs rotate at local midnight instead of at UTC midnight.
WEBPASSWORD	random	<Admin password>	http://pi.hole/admin password. Run docker logs pihole | grep random to find your random pass.
FTLCONF_LOCAL_IPV4	unset	<Host's IP>	Set to your server's LAN IP, used by web block modes and lighttpd bind address.
REV_SERVER	false	<"true"|"false">	Enable DNS conditional forwarding for device name resolution

REV_SERVER_TARGET	unset	Router's IP	If conditional forwarding is enabled, set the IP of the local network router

Using Portainer stacks?

2022-3-11: I'm being told that the advice below is no longer true in Portainer. If you're using Portainer, first try it without removing the volumes declaration and see if it works.

Portainer stacks are a little weird and don't want you to declare your named volumes, so remove this block from the top of the docker-compose.yaml file before copy/pasting into Portainer's stack editor:

volumes:
  etc_pihole-unbound:
  etc_pihole_dnsmasq-unbound:

Running the stack

docker-compose up -d

If using Portainer, just paste the docker-compose.yaml contents into the stack config and add your environment variables directly in the UI.
