[Docker] [6.12.1] mympd ignores [mpd] host, port, and streamport

[helkaluin]

myMPD version: 6.12.1

Describe the bug

Logs indicate that both mpdworker and mpdclient are using a hard-coded 127.0.0.1:6600 instead of the host and port defined in mympd.conf. mympd.conf is definitely read since webport can be changed. On top of that, setting streamport returns "Unkown config option: mpd - streamport" in the logs.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Use the official docker-compose
2. Edit mympd.conf
3. Run docker-compose up

Server plattform (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu
• OS version: 20.04
• Plattform: x86_64
• MPD version: 0.21.23

Please read the documentation, from https://github.com/jcorporation/myMPD/wiki/Configuration:

myMPD uses /etc/mympd.conf as default configuration file. Path to this file is an optional argument to the mympd executable and can be omitted. Configuration will be overwritten by environment variables and by the settings in the web ui. Settings from the web ui are saved in individual files under /var/lib/mympd/state/. Deleting this files and restarting myMPD resets the web ui configuration.

I know this behavior is not obvious and it will be changed in the 7.1.0 release of myMPD.

If this does not work, please provide debug log files.

Many thanks. I did delete the /state files but then the defaults get propagated again (ignoring the .conf). Manually editing the /state files had the intended results.

The default Dockerfile sets mpd host and port to 127.0.0.1:6600 and overwrite the mympd.conf

streamport is a new setting for myMPD v7.0.0.
