Running a Calckey instance with Docker

Pre-built docker container

thatonecalculator/calckey

docker-compose

You can find a docker-compose.yml file in the same folder as this README, along with a folder called .config containing two example files needed to get the instance running:

.config/docker.env (db config settings)
.config/default.yml (calckey instance settings)

configuring calckey

Rename the files:

cp .config/default_example.yml .config/default.yml

cp .config/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 instance at.
host, db, user, pass will have to be configured in the PostgreSQL configuration section - host is the name of the postgres container (eg: calckey_db_1), and the others should match your docker.env.
hostwill need to be configured in the Redis configuration section - it is the name of the redis container (eg: calckey_redis_1)

Everything else can be left as-is.

Running docker-compose

The prebuilt container for calckey 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 calckey tables.

Once the instance 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 calckey instance on).

Securing your instance with a reverse proxy

On its own calckey serves itself with HTTP, and does not support SSL. In order to support encrypted connections via HTTPS - an absolute necessity if you intend to host an instance accessible from the public internet - you need to add a reverse proxy to your setup.
