Spotweb container

Sources

Base image: Alpine:latest Main software: Spotweb Packages: php7, openssl, apache2

Requirements

You need a separate database server (both MySQL/MariaDB and PostgreSQL are supported through my config) or you can use SQLite within the container.

Usage

Supported modes

The container can be to connect to directly with or without SSL. You can also connect a reverse proxy to the exposed port and setup any sort of connection from there.

Initial installation

When you run the docker image for the first time without optional parameters it will download the master Spotweb branch into the webfolder and install the chosen php7 SQL module.

docker run --restart=always -d -p 80:80 \
		--hostname=spotweb \
		--name=spotweb \
		-e TZ='Europe/Amsterdam' \
		-e SQL='mysql'
		jerheij/spotweb

After this browse to the exposed port and add "install.php" to it to run the configuration wizard.

Permanent version

To make the installation permanent (surviving an upgrade) you need to secure the /var/www/spotweb/dbsettings.inc.php configuration. The best way is to copy that file to your config folder and make a manual mapping:

docker run --restart=always -d -p 80:80 \
		--hostname=spotweb \
		--name=spotweb \
		-v <location_dbsettings.inc.php>:/var/www/spotweb/dbsettings.inc.php \
		-e TZ='Europe/Amsterdam' \
		-e SQL='mysql'
		jerheij/spotweb

The run command will keep the container "permanent".

Docker compose example

The following docker-compose.yml example correspondents to the above:

services:
  spotweb:
    image: jerheij/spotweb:latest
    container_name: spotweb
    restart: always
    ports:
      - "192.168.1.1:80:80"
    environment:
      TZ: Europe/Amsterdam
      SQL: mysql
    volumes:
      - config/dbsettings_spotweb.php:/var/www/spotweb/dbsettings.inc.php

SSL

This will enable the SSL modules and configuration in Apache2 and deploy an Apache2 SSL configuration on port 443. It expects the following files to be available:

• /etc/ssl/web/spotweb.crt
• /etc/ssl/web/spotweb.key
• /etc/ssl/web/spotweb.chain.crt

Suggested method is to mount a local directory with those certificates to /etc/ssl/webfolder:

...
volumes:
  - ssl:/etc/ssl/web:ro
