## Build a personalized container
docker: reorganized the README, same infos This is in preparation for the next commit, which will introduce support for custom builds with plugins.
2019-07-12 02:38:47 +02:00
If you want to use a personalized settings file, **you will have to rebuild your image**.
All of the following instructions are as a member of the `docker` group.
docker: build & run the container in production mode This is leaner (no development dependencies are included in the container) and faster (among other things, assets are minified & compressed).
2020-04-19 04:35:27 +02:00
By default, the Etherpad Docker image is built and run in `production` mode: no development dependencies are installed, and asset bundling speeds up page load time.
docker: move the docker image creation inside the main repository This is a super simple start. At minimum, configuration via environment variables (see #3543) needs to be integrated in Etherpad to make this user-friendly. Resolves #3524.

### Rebuilding with custom settings
fixed typo
2021-08-31 16:51:34 +02:00
Edit `<BASEDIR>/settings.json.docker` at your will. When rebuilding the image, this file will be copied inside your image and renamed to `settings.json`.

Settings.js: support syntax for default values +---------------------------+---------------+------------------+ | Configuration string in | Value of | Resulting confi- | | settings.json | ENV_VAR | guration value | |---------------------------|---------------|------------------| | "${ENV_VAR}" | "some_string" | "some_string" | | "${ENV_VAR}" | "9001" | 9001 | | "${ENV_VAR}" | undefined | null | | "${ENV_VAR:some_default}" | "some_string" | "some_string" | | "${ENV_VAR:some_default}" | undefined | "some_default" | +---------------------------+---------------+------------------+ Mention this briefly in the main README.md, also. Closes #3578.
2019-03-21 01:37:19 +01:00
**Each configuration parameter can also be set via an environment variable**, using the syntax `"${ENV_VAR}"` or `"${ENV_VAR:default_value}"`. For details, refer to `settings.json.template`.
Settings.js: support configuration via environment variables. All the configuration values can be read from environment variables using the syntax "${ENV_VAR_NAME}". This is useful, for example, when running in a Docker container. EXAMPLE: "port": "${PORT}" "minify": "${MINIFY}" "skinName": "${SKIN_NAME}" Would read the configuration values for those items from the environment variables PORT, MINIFY and SKIN_NAME. REMARKS: Please note that a variable substitution always needs to be quoted. "port": 9001, <-- Literal values. When not using substitution, "minify": false only strings must be quoted: booleans and "skin": "colibris" numbers must not. "port": ${PORT} <-- ERROR: this is not valid json "minify": ${MINIFY} "skin": ${SKIN_NAME} "port": "${PORT}" <-- CORRECT: if you want to use a variable "minify": "${MINIFY}" substitution, put quotes around its name, "skin": "${SKIN_NAME}" even if the required value is a number or a boolean. Etherpad will take care of rewriting it to the proper type if necessary. Resolves #3543

### Rebuilding including some plugins
docker: support including plugins in custom builds. This commit introduces the support for the ETHERPAD_PLUGINS build parameter, which contains a list of plugins to be installed while building the container. EXAMPLE: docker build --build-arg ETHERPAD_PLUGINS="ep_codepad ep_author_neat" --tag <YOUR_USERNAME>/etherpad . Resolves #3618.
2019-07-12 02:32:34 +02:00
If you want to install some plugins in your container, it is sufficient to list them in the ETHERPAD_PLUGINS build variable.
The variable value has to be a space separated, double quoted list of plugin names (see examples).
docker: move docker/settings.json to /settings.json.docker
2019-11-08 23:50:50 +01:00
Some plugins will need personalized settings. Just refer to the previous section, and include them in your custom `settings.json.docker`.

feat(docker): Add build var for optionally installing abiword (#4796) This MR introduces a docker build variable `INSTALL_ABIWORD`. When set to any value other than `0`, ABIWORD is installed in the resulting docker container, enabling the possibility to configure ABIWORD in settings.json.docker or via ENV VAR `ABIWORD` for exporting to DOC/PDF/ODT. Documentation is included inline and in the docker markdown file.
2021-02-18 10:27:52 +01:00
### Rebuilding including export functionality for DOC/PDF/ODT
If you want to be able to export your pads to DOC/PDF/ODT files, you can install
either Abiword or Libreoffice via setting a build variable.
#### Via Abiword
For installing Abiword, set the `INSTALL_ABIWORD` build variable to any value.
Also, you will need to configure the path to the abiword executable
via setting the `abiword` property in `<BASEDIR>/settings.json.docker` to
`/usr/bin/abiword` or via setting the environment variable `ABIWORD` to
`/usr/bin/abiword`.
#### Via Libreoffice
For installing Libreoffice instead, set the `INSTALL_SOFFICE` build variable
to any value.
Also, you will need to configure the path to the libreoffice executable
via setting the `soffice` property in `<BASEDIR>/settings.json.docker` to
`/usr/bin/soffice` or via setting the environment variable `SOFFICE` to
`/usr/bin/soffice`.

docker: enable environment variables settings by default By leveraging the templating mechanism in `settings.json`, this change allows a Docker client to run a prebuilt image and change some basic configuration settings, like the instance name or, more importantly, the database coordinates. By default, the image runs witho no administrative user enabled. If a value is given to ADMIN_PASSWORD, the `admin` user will be activated. Also closes https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/issues/3623 --- Modified by muxator to support conditional user activation at runtime.

You can use the UI skin variants builder at `/p/test#skinvariantsbuilder`
For the colibris skin only, you can choose how to render the three main containers:
* toolbar (top menu with icons)
* editor (containing the text of the pad)
* background (area outside of editor, mostly visible when using page style)
For each of the 3 containers you can choose 4 color combinations:
* super-light
* light
* dark
* super-dark
For the editor container, you can also make it full width by adding `full-width-editor` variant (by default editor is rendered as a page, with a max-width of 900px).

| `SUPPRESS_ERRORS_IN_PAD_TEXT` | Should we suppress errors from being visible in the default Pad Text? | `false` |
| `REQUIRE_SESSION` | If this option is enabled, a user must have a session to access pads. This effectively allows only group pads to be accessed. | `false` |
| `EDIT_ONLY` | Users may edit pads but not create new ones. Pad creation is only via the API. This applies both to group pads and regular pads. | `false` |
| `MINIFY` | If true, all css & js will be minified before sending to the client. This will improve the loading performance massively, but makes it difficult to debug the javascript/css | `true` |
| `MAX_AGE` | How long may clients use served javascript code (in seconds)? Not setting this may cause problems during deployment. Set to 0 to disable caching. | `21600` (6 hours) |
| `ABIWORD` | Absolute path to the Abiword executable. Abiword is needed to get advanced import/export features of pads. Setting it to null disables Abiword and will only allow plain text and HTML import/exports. | `null` |
| `SOFFICE` | This is the absolute path to the soffice executable. LibreOffice can be used in lieu of Abiword to export pads. Setting it to null disables LibreOffice exporting. | `null` |
| `TIDY_HTML` | Path to the Tidy executable. Tidy is used to improve the quality of exported pads. Setting it to null disables Tidy. | `null` |
| `ALLOW_UNKNOWN_FILE_ENDS` | Allow import of file types other than the supported ones: txt, doc, docx, rtf, odt, html & htm | `true` |
| `REQUIRE_AUTHENTICATION` | This setting is used if you require authentication of all users. Note: "/admin" always requires authentication. | `false` |
| `REQUIRE_AUTHORIZATION` | Require authorization by a module, or a user with is_admin set, see below. | `false` |
| `AUTOMATIC_RECONNECTION_TIMEOUT` | Time (in seconds) to automatically reconnect pad when a "Force reconnect" message is shown to user. Set to 0 to disable automatic reconnection. | `0` |
| `FOCUS_LINE_PERCENTAGE_ABOVE` | Percentage of viewport height to be additionally scrolled. e.g. 0.5, to place caret line in the middle of viewport, when user edits a line above of the viewport. Set to 0 to disable extra scrolling | `0` |
| `FOCUS_LINE_PERCENTAGE_BELOW` | Percentage of viewport height to be additionally scrolled. e.g. 0.5, to place caret line in the middle of viewport, when user edits a line below of the viewport. Set to 0 to disable extra scrolling | `0` |
| `FOCUS_LINE_PERCENTAGE_ARROW_UP` | Percentage of viewport height to be additionally scrolled when user presses arrow up in the line of the top of the viewport. Set to 0 to let the scroll to be handled as default by Etherpad | `0` |
| `FOCUS_LINE_DURATION` | Time (in milliseconds) used to animate the scroll transition. Set to 0 to disable animation | `0` |
| `FOCUS_LINE_CARET_SCROLL` | Flag to control if it should scroll when user places the caret in the last line of the viewport | `false` |
Docker: Expose socketIo.maxHttpBufferSize and dumpOnUncleanExit settings as environment variables
2021-09-16 20:48:05 +02:00
| `SOCKETIO_MAX_HTTP_BUFFER_SIZE` | The maximum size (in bytes) of a single message accepted via Socket.IO. If a client sends a larger message, its connection gets closed to prevent DoS (memory exhaustion) attacks. | `10000` |

| `LOAD_TEST` | Allow Load Testing tools to hit the Etherpad Instance. WARNING: this will disable security on the instance. | `false` |

2021-09-16 20:48:05 +02:00
| `DUMP_ON_UNCLEAN_EXIT` | Enable dumping objects preventing a clean exit of Node.js. WARNING: this has a significant performance impact. | `false` |

| `EXPOSE_VERSION` | Expose Etherpad version in the web interface and in the Server http header. Do not enable on production machines. | `false` |
docker: in the documentation, reorganize categorically the available parameters No functional changes. This is in preparation of a future commit by Paul Tiedke.

docker: enable environment variables settings by default By leveraging the templating mechanism in `settings.json`, this change allows a Docker client to run a prebuilt image and change some basic configuration settings, like the instance name or, more importantly, the database coordinates. By default, the image runs witho no administrative user enabled. If a value is given to ADMIN_PASSWORD, the `admin` user will be activated. Also closes https://github.com/ether/etherpad-lite/issues/3623 --- Modified by muxator to support conditional user activation at runtime.

docker: incorporate the docker docs into the official documentation This also means increasing the indentation level.

Use a Postgres database, no admin user enabled:
```shell
docker run -d \
--name etherpad \
-p 9001:9001 \
-e 'DB_TYPE=postgres' \
-e 'DB_HOST=db.local' \
-e 'DB_PORT=4321' \
-e 'DB_NAME=etherpad' \
-e 'DB_USER=dbusername' \
-e 'DB_PASS=mypassword' \
etherpad/etherpad
```
Run enabling the administrative user `admin`:
```shell
docker run -d \
--name etherpad \
-p 9001:9001 \
-e 'ADMIN_PASSWORD=supersecret' \
etherpad/etherpad
```
