Example Docker setup for the LCA Collaboration Server 2.3

This repository contains a setup for running the LCA Collaboration Server 2.3 in a Docker container.

Requirements

To run this setup, you need Docker and Docker Compose:

Environement variables

The setup will use environment variables. These can be set in an .env file. The environement variables will be automatically loaded by the Docker Compose setup.

# Please fill in the following environment variables in this file
MYSQL_URL=collaboration-server-db
MYSQL_PORT=3306
MYSQL_DATABASE=<please_fill_in>
MYSQL_USER=<please_fill_in>
MYSQL_PASSWORD=<please_fill_in>
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=<please_fill_in>
OPENSEARCH_INITIAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD=<please_fill_in>

Running the LCA Collaboration Server with Docker compose

You can start the collaboration server by executing the following command:

cd lca-collaboration-server-docker
docker compose up

If not done yet, this will build the image for the collaboration server and also fetch images for MySQL and OpenSearch. Then it starts containers for these images in interactive mode.

The setup will use two volumes (db-data and server-data) for storing data. These volumes are created if they do not exist yet:

$ docker volume ls
DRIVER    VOLUME NAME
local     collaboration-server-docker_db-data
local     collaboration-server-docker_server-data

The collaboration server will run on port 8080, thus http://localhost:8080 will bring you to the login page of the collaboration server. The initial admin crendentials should be changed, see also the configuration guide.

Username Password
administrator Plea5eCh@ngeMe

For using the search, you first need to enable it in the administration settings under Enabled features: Search. For the URL of the OpenSearch service, you need to set it to http://search:9200:

Schema Url Port
http search # not localhost! 9200

Running in read-only mode with external MySQL Server

To run the collaboration server in read-only mode, build the collaboration-server image with the following command first:

docker build -t collaboration-server .

The MySQL Server parameters can be adapted in the .env file:

The container can be run with the following command (the MySQL server must be up and running) then:

docker compose -f compose.read-only.yaml up

If you want to run the containers in background instead, just add the -d flag to the command.

The setup will use a single volume (server-data) for storing data. This volume is created if it does not exist yet:

$ docker volume ls
DRIVER    VOLUME NAME
local     lca-collaboration-server-docker_server-data

Run a stand alone MySQL container

For testing purposes, a MySQL container with different host name and port can be run with the following command:

docker compose -f compose.mysql.yaml up

The database schema is initialized at start.
