Can't install Pihole exporter in docker - raspberry pi 4

[mrtargaryen]

I am trying to install PiHole Exporter on a Raspberry Pi 4 in Docker.

When I try to install the image, it just hangs and moves no further.

This is what I see, and it progresses no further (the ports, LAN Address, and password are all correct):

pi@raspberrypi4:~ $ docker run \
  -e 'PIHOLE_HOSTNAME=192.168.50.168' \
  -e 'PIHOLE_PASSWORD=XXXXXXXX-' \
  -e 'INTERVAL=30s' \
  -e 'PORT=9617' \
  -p 9617:9617 \

Any chance someone could point me in the right direction? I've followed the instructions exactly, I've also attempted to install using the API method with the same results.

Same issue on a fresh install on amd64, even if I use ekofr/pihole-exporter:v0.3.0 existing install is working for one of my instances, but started failing to pull data from a remote pihole instance claiming its timed out within about 2 seconds. I was going to put a local exporter to fix the issue, but ran into this.

Needs to be run with the detached flag or else it will stop when you exit.

docker run -d
-e 'PIHOLE_HOSTNAME=192.168..'
-e "PIHOLE_API_TOKEN=$API_TOKEN"
-e 'PORT=9617'
