Hi everyone,

trying to install Sofie…

Here´s my docker-compose.yaml

# This is NOT recommended to be used for a production deployment. It aims to quickly get an evaluation version of sofie running and serve as a basis for how to setup a production deployment
version: "3.3"
services:
  db:
    hostname: mongo
    image: mongo:4.2.8
    restart: always

    ports:
      - "3001:27017" # Expose mongo on the same port as dev meteor does
    volumes:
      - db-data:/data/db
    networks:
      - sofie

  core:
    hostname: core
    image: sofietv/tv-automation-server-core:master
    restart: always
    ports:
      - "3000:3000" # Same port as meteor uses by default
    environment:
      PORT: "3000"
      MONGO_URL: "mongodb://db:27017/meteor"
      ROOT_URL: "http://localhost:3000"

    restart: always
    command: yarn start -host core -port 3000
    networks:
      - sofie
    depends_on:
      - core

  # Choose one of the following images, depending on which type of ingest gateway is wanted:

   spreadsheet-gateway:
     image: superflytv/sofie-spreadsheet-gateway:develop
     restart: always
     command: yarn start -host core -port 3000
     networks:

     depends_on:
       - core

  #   command: yarn start -host core -port 3000
  #   networks:
  #     - sofie
  #   depends_on:
  #     - core

networks:
  sofie:

volumes:
  db-data:
  snapshots:

but I always get this error when trying to install it…

ERROR: yaml.parser.ParserError: while parsing a block mapping
  in ".\docker-compose.yaml", line 5, column 3
expected <block end>, but found '<block mapping start>'
  in ".\docker-compose.yaml", line 45, column 4

Any ideas whats wrong? I have no experience with Docker so far…

Thanks!

The file looks right (or the same as mine)
I remember that the first time I tried to install Sofie I didnt install the right version of Docker

Sofie also has a good active slack-channel where this question probably would be better suited
sofie slack-channel

Well, I used the Docker link provided in the Wiki, that brought me to here:

https://hub.docker.com/editions/community/docker-ce-desktop-windows

Isn´t this the correct version?

Im not shure
I did never get the spreadsheet-gateway to work so I did turn my focus to other things.
But you should ask in the sofie slack forum.
This isnt really the right place for Sofie support

5

it looks like the yaml isn’t uncommented correctly, try running it through an online formatter maybe?

Can´t access the slack channel, as I´m not a member of one of the companies like BBC, NRK, etc. :confused:

Online validator says it´s fine… the yaml is from the Sofie wiki. Just uncommented the Spreadsheet.

8

It looks like the spreadsheet block is indented by an extra space. yaml is very picky about indentation like that

I had the same problem but it worked with the right spacing.
But i’ve had the next problem on the next step. When i try to use “sudo docker-compose up” i get this error message:

ERROR: The Compose file ‘./docker-compose.yaml’ is invalid because:
Unsupported config option for services.playout-gateway: ‘spreadsheet-gateway’

Does anyone know what to do.
Thanks in advance
