GL4_Secure_Chat (WIP)

Projet Protocoles de sécurité GL4

Overview

How to start

I have tried sooo many variations that I have conflicts when starting docker containers, that's why I need to delete the containers and volumes each time :

• docker rm $(docker ps -a -q)
• docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -q)

After that :

1. Start the authentication services

   docker-compose up ldap phpldapadmin database adminer

   • phpLDAPAdmin (LDAP management) will be available at https://localhost:8081
   • adminer (PostgreSQL management) will be available at http://localhost:8082

2. Create your first user by accessing phpLDAPAdmin at https://localhost:8081

   • login with DN: cn=admin,dc=insat,dc=com Password: adminpwd
   • create a Generic : Posix Group in dc=insat,dc=com named Users
   • create a Generic : User Account with a GID Number Users

3. NGINX reverse-proxy

   We are using NGINX as a reverse proxy so we can have a unique endpoint for our app and API. Else, we would have to open two endpoints : one for the app, the other for the API.

   docker-compose up --build -d nginx

   NGINX will auto restart until you have started the app and API below.

4. Run the API

   The database will be automatically set-up thanks to Flask Migrate and any future modification brought to models will be automatically applied when the API is restarted.

   You might wait some time before the database get updated after starting the API :

   docker-compose up --build -d api

   For development, go to http://localhost:5000 to access the API documentation

5. Run the web app

   # Expect several minutes for first launch (npm install)
   docker-compose up --build -d app

   ℹ️ If you want to add a NPM package, just stop & re-launch docker-compose up app.

   Open the app at http://localhost:8080

CA

generate authority key :

openssl genrsa -out AUTH_key -des3 4092

generate the certificate for the authority

openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -key AUTH_key -out AUTH_cert
