Publish: 2022-09-02 | Modify: 2022-09-02

OneNav is an open-source and free bookmark (navigation) management program developed by xiaoz using PHP + SQLite 3. It has a simple interface, easy installation, and convenient usage. OneNav can help you centralize and manage your browser bookmarks, solve the difficulties of synchronization and access across devices, platforms, and browsers, and achieve deployment in one place and access anywhere.

Below, I will share how to use Docker to build OneNav on QNAP NAS.

Building OneNav with Docker on QNAP NAS

First, open the "Container Station" suite on your QNAP NAS, then select "Create" and search for the keyword "onenav". Click the install button.

Container Station

After clicking install, you will be prompted to choose the image version. Select the default "latest" version and click Next.

Image Version

Next, create the container. You can keep the default name or modify it as you like. Then click on advanced settings, where we need to set some additional necessary parameters.

Advanced Settings

Switch to Advanced Settings - Network - Port Forwarding. Fill in any unused port for the Host Port, and the Container Port must be set to 80, as shown in the screenshot below:

Port Forwarding

  • Network Mode: NAT
  • Host Port: Fill in any unused port, for example, 1080
  • Container Port: Must be set to 80
  • Protocol: TCP

Switch to Advanced Settings - Shared Folders - Mount Local Shared Folders and fill in the requirements below.

  • Mount Local Shared Folders: Create a directory to save OneNav data on your local machine and select this directory.
  • Mount Path: Fixed to /data/wwwroot/default/data (do not modify)

Shared Folders

Finally, click Create and confirm.

Create Container

Wait a few minutes (depending on the network conditions) for the system to pull the image and complete the creation. After the creation is complete, you can see it in the Container Station Overview.

Initialization

After creating the container, access http://IP:Port to initialize OneNav. Note:

  • IP: The IP address of your QNAP NAS
  • Port: The host port set above (in my screenshot, I set it to 1080)

Initialization

After initialization, you can enjoy using OneNav.
