Executing the full standalone Cloudlog stack

This Docker Compose script makes sure all the services are ready to run the Cloudlog installation. Persistency is enabled by default on both MySQL and Cloudlog

Step 1: Create docker-compose.yml

1. Connect to the machine where you want to deploy Cloudlog
2. Create a new docker-compose.yml
3. Paste the following code

version: '3'
services:
  cloudlog-mysql:
    image: mysql:latest
    container_name: cloudlog-mysql
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: password-segreta # <- Use a strong password here
    #ports:
      #- "3306:3306" # <- Uncomment these lines only if you need to expose the MySQL container to the network
    volumes:
      - cloudlog-dbdata:/var/lib/mysql
    restart: unless-stopped

  phpmyadmin:
    image: phpmyadmin:latest
    container_name: cloudlog-phpmyadmin
    depends_on:
      - cloudlog-mysql
    environment:
      PMA_HOST: cloudlog-mysql
      PMA_PORT: 3306
      PMA_ARBITRARY: 1
      PMA_USER: root
      PMA_PASSWORD: password-segreta # <- Put same strong password here
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "8083:80"
      
  cloudlog:
    image: 2m0sql/cloudlog:latest
    container_name: cloudlog-main
    depends_on:
      - cloudlog-mysql
    volumes:
      - cloudlog-config:/var/www/html/application/config
      - cloudlog-backup:/var/www/html/application/backup
      - cloudlog-uploads:/var/www/html/application/uploads
    ports:
      - "8086:80"
    restart: unless-stopped

volumes:
  cloudlog-dbdata:
  cloudlog-config:
  cloudlog-backup:
  cloudlog-uploads:

Important notes

• Make sure to provide a strong password on the MySQL environment variables
• PhpMyAdmin should be stopped after the first setup and executed only for debugging purposes
• MySQL is only accessible from the Docker environment, if you want to expose it please uncomment the ports: lines

Step 2: Execute the stack

1. Execute docker compose up -d

You should see the terminal downloading some stuff and then returning to the normal blinking cursor, if no errors are shown you are good to go!

Step 3: Create a Cloudlog user

1. Access PhpMyAdmin at http://ipaddress:8083
2. Click on Users accounts on the top bar
3. Click on Add a new user
4. Enter a valid username and password (twice). Make sure to remember these parameters, we will need them later!
5. Make sure to tick Create a database with same name and grand all privileges.
6. Click Execute to proceed

Step 4: Configure Cloudlog

1. Access Cloudlog at http://ipaddress:8086/install
2. Set:
   • Directory: leave blank
   • Website: should be set already
   • Default gridsquare: your QTH locator
   • DB Hostname: cloudlog-mysql
   • DB User: the username you created in step 3
   • DB Pass: the password you configured in step 3
   • DB Name: same as username
3. Click on Install

Step 5: Enjoy!
