Pi-Hole on Raspberry Pi all models using Docker

In this segment, we are going to show you how to “Install Pi-Hole on Raspberry Pi B Plus with the help of Docker “

What is Pi-Hole?

Pi-hole is a Linux network-level advertisement and Internet tracker blocking application which acts as a DNS sinkhole (and optionally a DHCP server), intended for use on a private network. It is designed for use on embedded devices with network capability, such as the Raspberry Pi, but it can be used on other machines running Linux and cloud implementations.
Pi-hole can block traditional website adverts as well as adverts in unconventional places, such as smart TVs and mobile operating system adverts.

Docker installation guide on Raspberry Pi

Docker on Raspberry Pi All models – [2020]

Pull Pi-Hole Docker Image

To pull the latest Pi-Hole docker image, we need to open Terminal and type the below-given command.

 docker pull pihole/pihole

Run Pi-Hole Docker Image

Now we need to use the below-given command to run the docker container.
You have to set the path for docker folders in this command to successfully configure Pi-Hole.

 docker run -d \
    --name pihole \
    -p 53:53/tcp \
    -p 53:53/udp \
    -p 67:67/udp \
    -p 80:80 \
    -p 443:443 \
    -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 \
    -e TZ=Asia/Kolkata \
    -v /mnt/pihole/pihole/:/etc/pihole/ \
    -v /mnt/pihole/dnsmasq.d/:/etc/dnsmasq.d/ \
    -e 127.0.0.1 \
    -e 1.1.1.1 \
    --restart=unless-stopped \
    pihole/pihole:latest

Access Pi-Hole Web Interface

To access the Pi-Hole web interface, we need to use the HTTP://RaspberryPi_IP_Address/admin or just type HTTP://localhost/admin.

 http://IP/admin/

To get random Password

docker logs pihole 2 /dev/null | 'grep password:'

Reset Pi-Hole Password

docker exec -it pihole pihole -a -p

In conclusion

You are all set to use Pi-Hole on your Raspberry Pi with Docker.
