Hi friends.

I've been trying to find docker-compose.yaml for pihole+unbound so I can use pihole as both a recursive dns server and as local dns alongside Nginx Proxy Manager. But since v6 of pihole all the old files I could find don't work properly or at all.

Does anyone here use pihole+unbound in docker?

I have all these services in docker as well (although not with the docker compose file here) and they run perfectly fine with a very low resource footprint.

0K that's cool. I love docker. I would like to upgrade to k8s but I haven't yet plumbed the depths of docker. I was just with the overhead of docker, since Pi-Hole/Unbound is a dedicated system, I thought maybe it'd get better thru put baked in. I wouldn't listen to me tho, I'm medicated.

As an anecdote: I have one system (x86) with pi-hole and unbound in a docker, and a secondary raspberry pi with pi-hole running on bare metal. The docker system (although much more performant in general) has a lower latency as the raspberry bare metal install.
