#running OpenThread Border Router (otbr) with docker compose and a SLZB-MR1 over TCP

So far I am unable to get the otbr running with docker compose and a SLZB-MR1 (configures as thread) over TCP. Using the official docker image it is quite confusing what kind of environment vars to use as the names seem to be different from tutorial to tutorial. I've also tried the docker container ghcr.io/ownbee/hass-otbr-docker but this one seems to be untested with tcp radio url and I haven't got it to work.

Is there a good documentation about otbr using with docker and a tcp radio url? I haven't found this combination.

Or should I simply run it without docker on the host?

different names for env vars that I've found so far:
OTBR_RADIO_URL=spinel+hdlc+tcp://192.168.86.31:6638
RADIO_URL=spinel+hdlc+tcp://192.168.86.31:6638
OT_RCP_DEVICE=spinel+hdlc+tcp://192.168.86.31:7638

You’ll likely need socat or similar that’s how the OTBR addon handles tcp based radios. OTBR doesn’t natively support tcp://
