Frigate Running in Docker inside LXC on Proxmox

Not having the desire to put frigate on a standalone server of some sort, I wanted it to run as a container in Proxmox. Since Frigate is supplied as a Docker container, and I don't want to run Docker directly on the Proxmox host, there are two choices open to me: run Frigate in a virtual machine - prevents sharing an Nvidia card with other machines or containers, or run Frigate in an LXC or an OCI container - an Nvidia card can be shared with multiple containers, and resource requirements are reduced, at the risk of security issues (which are reduced if the host is a private server) Some installation commands, based upon connecting Frigate to an Nvidia GPU. Some instructions come from Installing the NVIDIA Container Toolkit, which is required for connecting to the Nvidia GPU (commands assume sudo or running as root, which is default in a basic LXC container). The link contains installation, testing and troubleshooting instructions. Continue reading "Frigate Running in Docker inside…
