## Minimalist setup
If you want to use `ultrafeeder` *only* as a SDR decoder but without any mapping or stats/graph websites, without MLAT connections or MLAT-hub, etc., for example to minimize CPU and RAM needs on a low CPU/memory single board computer, then do the following:
- in the `ULTRAFEEDER_CONFIG` parameter, remove any entry that starts with `mlat` or `mlathub`. This will prevent any `mlat-client`s or `mlathub` instances to be launched. If you still want to connect the `mlat-client`(s) to external MLAT servers but you don't want to run the overhead of a MLATHUB, you can leave any entries starting with `mlat` in the `ULTRAFEEDER_CONFIG` parameter, and set `MLATHUB_DISABLE=true`
- Set the parameter `TAR1090_DISABLE=true`. This will prevent the `nginx` webserver and any websites to be launched and no `collectd` (graphs1090) or `rrd` (ADSB message history) data to be collected or retained.
- Make sure to use `ghcr.io/sdr-enthusiasts/docker-adsb-ultrafeeder:latest` and specifically NOT the `ghcr.io/sdr-enthusiasts/docker-adsb-ultrafeeder:telegraf` label as Telegraf adds a LOT of resource use to the container
## Logging
All logs are to the container's stdout and can be viewed with `docker logs -t [-f] container`.
