Installation

Docker 🐋

Docker is the preferred way to run AdventureLog on your local machine. It is a lightweight containerization technology that allows you to run applications in isolated environments called containers. Note: This guide mainly focuses on installation with a linux based host machine, but the steps are similar for other operating systems.

Prerequisites

• Docker installed on your machine/server. You can learn how to download it here.

Getting Started

Get the docker-compose.yml file from the AdventureLog repository. You can download it from here or run this command to download it directly to your machine:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/seanmorley15/AdventureLog/main/docker-compose.yml

Configuration

Here is a summary of the configuration options available in the docker-compose.yml file:

Frontend Container (web)

PUBLIC_SERVER_URL	Yes	What the frontend SSR server uses to connect to the backend.	http://server:8000
ORIGIN	Sometimes	Not needed if using HTTPS. If not, set it to the domain of what you will acess the app from.	http://localhost:8080
BODY_SIZE_LIMIT	Yes	Used to set the maximum upload size to the server. Should be changed to prevent someone from uploading too much! Custom values must be set in kiliobytes.	Infinity

Backend Container (server)

Name	Required	Description	Default Value
PGHOST	Yes	Databse host.	db
PGDATABASE	Yes	Database.	database

Proxy Container (nginx) Configuration

In order to use media files in a production environment, you need to configure the nginx container to serve the media files. The container is already in the docker compose file but you need to do a few things to make it work.

1. Create a directory called proxy in the same directory as the docker-compose.yml file.
2. Create a file called nginx.conf in the proxy directory.
3. Add the following configuration to the nginx.conf file:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name localhost;

    location /media/ {
        alias /app/media/;
    }
}

Running the Containers

To start the containers, run the following command:

docker compose up -d
