How to install on unraid?

[simondsmason]

Hi, I was using Birdcage on unraid but the project is no longer maintained. I managed to install it using portainer with lot of help from the community. I would like to switch to birdnet-go but as a neophyte on this stuff I could use some pointers? Thanks.

I haven't used unraid nor Birdcage, but as I would expect that BirdNET-Go container would be installed pretty much same way as you did with Birdcage.

@simondsmason did get it working on Unraid ? If so could you share how you did it. I'm having no luck.

I haven't given it much attention yet. I had a challenging time getting the original installed - going back and forth with a Good Samaritan on GitHub to get it working. Hopefully there is someone here who could offer step by step in Unraid?

Ok thanks, if I figure it out I'll post here

An easy way to make this work on Unraid would be to simply create a VM with Debian or Ubuntu as the OS. Then, use the "Quick Install Script" found here. (You could also do a manual docker install, or a fully compiled build too.) I did a similar thing with my Proxmox based install, although was able to use a container in this case. I went through the entire install.sh script prior to installing it and it's totally benign.
