## Requirements
- [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/gettingstarted/) up and ready
- git
## Install
```sh
git clone https://github.com/inventaire/docker-inventaire.git
cd docker-inventaire
```
Rename `dotenv` file to `.env`, and customize the variables (mainly adding the domain name, and a couchdb password):
```sh
cp dotenv .env
vim .env
```
Clone `inventaire` core application [server](https://github.com/inventaire/inventaire)
```sh
git clone https://github.com/inventaire/inventaire.git
```
Build
```sh
docker-compose build
```
Download Node dependencies and install the [client repository](https://github.com/inventaire/inventaire-client):
```sh
cd inventaire
npm install tsx && npm install
cd ..
```
Configure inventaire so that it can connect to CouchDB. For that, create a file `config/local-production.cjs` with the following command:
```sh
echo "module.exports = {
db: {
hostname: 'couchdb',
},
elasticsearch: {
origin: 'http://elasticsearch:9200',
}
}
" > ./inventaire/config/local-production.cjs
```
NB: Those username and password should match the `COUCHDB_USER` and `COUCHDB_PASSWORD` environment variables set in `docker-compose.yml`
## Usage
Start CouchDB, Elasticsearch, and the Inventaire [server](https://github.com/inventaire/inventaire) in production mode
```sh
docker-compose up
```
## Tips
General tips on how to run Inventaire can be found in the [server repository docs](https://github.com/inventaire/inventaire/tree/main/docs). Here after are some additional Docker-specific tips.
### Fixtures
In case you would like to play with out-of-the-box data.
Run API tests to populate tests dbs
```sh
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml exec inventaire npm run test-api
```
- Replicate `*-tests` dbs documents into `*` dbs
```sh
`docker-compose exec inventaire npm run replicate-tests-db`
```
### Path autocomplete
Create a symbolic link on your machine between the inventaire folder and docker working directory on your machine at `/opt/`, in order to autocomplete path to test file to execute
```sh
sudo ln ~/path/to/inventaire-docker/inventaire /opt -s
```
Alternatively, as root in inventaire container:
```sh
mkdir /supervisor/path/to/inventaire
ln -s /opt/ /supervisor/path/to/inventaire
```
### Run inventaire server and client outside of Docker
It can sometimes be more convenient to keep CouchDB and Elasticsearch in Docker, but to run the Inventaire server and client outside. For this, you will need to have [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/) >= v16 installed on your machine, which should make both `node` and `npm` executables accessible in your terminal
Then you can start CouchDB and Elasticsearch in the background
```sh
docker-compose up couchdb elasticsearch -d
```
Start the Inventaire server in development mode
```sh
cd inventaire
npm run watch
```
And in another terminal, start the client Webpack dev server
```sh
cd inventaire/client
npm run watch
```
## Troubleshooting
### Elasticsearch errors
- `max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]`: fix by running the command `sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144` on your host machine
See also [Elasticsearch with Docker](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.9/docker.html)
### Quieting CouchDB notice
CouchDB may warn constantly that `_users` database does not exist, [as documented](https://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/setup/single-node.html), you can create de database with:
`curl -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:5984/_users`
