# Running a Firefish server with Docker
|
|
|
|
## Pre-built docker container
|
|
[registry.firefish.dev/firefish/firefish](https://firefish.dev/firefish/firefish/container_registry)
|
|
|
|
## `docker-compose`
|
|
|
|
There are example config files that you can use to build the container from source
|
|
|
|
- docker-compose.example.yml (**compose file**)
|
|
- .config/docker_example.env (**db config settings**)
|
|
- .config/default.yml (**firefish server settings**)
|
|
|
|
## Configuring
|
|
|
|
Copy the files:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cp docker-compose.example.yml docker-compose.yml
|
|
cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml
|
|
cp .config/docker_example.env .config/docker.env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
then edit them according to your environment.
|
|
You can configure `docker.env` with anything you like, but you will have to pay attention to the `default.yml` file:
|
|
- `url` should be set to the URL you will be hosting the web interface for the server at.
|
|
- `host`, `db`, `user`, `pass` will have to be configured in the `PostgreSQL configuration` section - `host` is the name of the postgres container (eg: *firefish_db_1*), and the others should match your `docker.env`.
|
|
- `host`will need to be configured in the *Redis configuration* section - it is the name of the redis container (eg: *firefish_redis_1*)
|
|
- `auth` will need to be configured in the *Sonic* section - cannot be the default `SecretPassword`
|
|
|
|
Everything else can be left as-is.
|
|
|
|
## Running docker-compose
|
|
|
|
The [prebuilt container for firefish](https://firefish.dev/firefish/firefish/container_registry) is fairly large, and may take a few minutes to download and extract using docker.
|
|
|
|
Copy `docker-compose.yml` and the `config/` to a directory, then run the **docker-compose** command:
|
|
`docker-compose up -d`.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This will take some time to come fully online, even after download and extracting the container images, and it may emit some error messages before completing successfully. Specifically, the `db` container needs to initialize and so isn't available to the `web` container right away. Only once the `db` container comes online does the `web` container start building and initializing the firefish tables.
|
|
|
|
Once the server is up you can use a web browser to access the web interface at `http://serverip:3000` (where `serverip` is the IP of the server you are running the firefish server on).
