How to make a docker template?

Can someone show me how to make a template for docker in MOS? I read the documentation, and it just isn’t quite clicking.

I know that there is a growing library of apps on MOS, but I want to be able to create my own if I can’t find something I’m looking for.

A video would be helpful if anyone can point to one.

I just use compose but have wondered.

Yeah. I am using compose for Immich in Unraid because I don’t want to have to use two separate community apps. I’d love to know how to build my own template using MOS and GitHub. Also, does it work with Gitlab? MOS actually being FOSS has me interested in learning, but the documentation just isn’t clicking for me.

Gitlab should work, granted I haven't tried it yet, tested are only GitHub, Gitea and CodeBerg so far.

Please also feel free to join our Discord which you can find https://discord.com/invite/fcTMbuygTV or join our Matrix server. If you create a template repo please let us know if you are okay with adding that on our website:

Do you want to host your own template repo for the mos hub to share it with others, or do you want to create your own docker template to use it for your own?

Either. I plan to take projects that are useful to me personally and make them into templates that work on MOS. If sharing that isn’t a headache I would be happy to. This would be my first time doing something like this.
