JetLog is a self-hostable personal flight tracker and viewer. You can easily import data from MyFlightRadar24 in CSV format in JetLog. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install JetLog on your Synology NAS using Docker and Portainer.

💡Note: This guide works perfectly with the latest JetLog v1.1.0 release.

• STEP 1

Please Support My work by Making a Donation.

• STEP 2

Install Portainer using my step by step guide. If you already have Portainer installed on your Synology NAS, skip this STEP. Attention: Make sure you have installed the latest Portainer version.

• STEP 3

Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it jetlog. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

• STEP 4

Log into Portainer using your username and password. On the left sidebar in Portainer, click on Stacks then + Add stack. Follow the instructions in the image below.

• STEP 5

In the Name field type in jetlog. Follow the instructions in the image below.

Note: Copy Paste the code below in the Portainer Stacks Web editor.

services:
  jetlog:
    image: pbogre/jetlog:latest
    container_name: JetLog
    healthcheck:
      test: timeout 10s bash -c ':> /dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/3000' || exit 1
      interval: 10s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 3
      start_period: 90s
    environment:
      PUID: 1026
      PGID: 100
      JETLOG_PORT: 3000
      SECRET_KEY: q9TAW5pK5O9DqAWhY18XupmtlZk0ULRmjroiZcfvJkvZduSYzrzc0FtM2yfHEeyB
    ports:
      - 3347:3000
    volumes:
      - /volume1/docker/jetlog:/data:rw
    restart: on-failure:5

Note: Before you paste the code above in the Web editor area below, change the value numbers for PUID and PGID with your own values. (Follow my step by step guide on how to do this.)
Note: Before you paste the code above in the Web editor area below, change the value for SECRET_KEY. (Generate your own 64 length SECRET_KEY.)

• STEP 6

Scroll down on the page until you see a button named Deploy the stack. Click on it. Follow the instructions in the image below. The installation process can take up to a few minutes. It will depend on your Internet speed connection.

• STEP 7

If everything goes right, you will see the following message at the top right of your screen: “Success Stack successfully deployed“.

• STEP 8

Go back to STEP 1 or you will deal with karma 🙂.

• STEP 9

The installation process can take up to a few seconds/minutes. It will depend on your Internet speed connection. Now open your browser and type in http://Synology-ip-address:3347 Type in the default Username and Password, then click Login. Follow the instructions in the image below.

⚠️Warning: the default username is admin and the default password is admin
