# Installation
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Docker
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using docker is the easiest way!
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you already have docker up and running, all you need to start Widerhall is
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Download the [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
|
||
|
2. Build the image: `docker build -t widerhall /path-to-dockerfile/
|
||
|
3. Start a container:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
docker run \
|
||
|
--name widerhall \
|
||
|
-d widerhall
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You should now be able to go to http://<your machine>/
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Configuration, data persistence
|
||
|
|
||
|
To keep data after restarts of your container, you need to mount a volume into the container:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
docker run \
|
||
|
--name widerhall \
|
||
|
-v /some/directory:/data
|
||
|
-d widerhall
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Widerhall will create all persistent data in `/data`, resp. your volume:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `widerhall.sqlite3` – this is the main database file. Keep it warm, keep it safe.
|
||
|
* `widerhall.config.json` – this is the main config file, where you can overload the default settings.
|
||
|
* `archive` – Stored mails will end up here.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Those files/directories will be created on the first start (or whenever you dropped them).
|
||
|
|
||
|
The config is structured as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"port":80,
|
||
|
"base_url":"https://widerhall.srsoftware.de",
|
||
|
"locations":{
|
||
|
"database":"/data/widerhall.sqlite3",
|
||
|
"configuration":"/data/widerhall.config.json",
|
||
|
"archive":"/data/archive",
|
||
|
"base":"/Widerhall"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Alter the `base_url` to match your server settings.
|
||
|
* If you want the database to be stored somewhere else, alter the `database` string.
|
||
|
* If you change the `configuration` property, widerhall will overlaod it's configuation with whatever is found at the given location
|
||
|
* If you want the archive to be stored somewhere else, alter the `archive` string.
|
||
|
* `base` should point to the installation dir of Widerhall, which is _/Widerhall_ by default
|
||
|
|
||
|
### SSL termination
|
||
|
|
||
|
Widerhall tries to keep it simple. The built-in webserver does not know anything about SSL.
|
||
|
If you want to keep a secure webiste, run _Widerhall_ behind a reverse proxy, such as [nginx_proxy].
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Maven
|
||
|
|
||
|
Widerhall is a Java project built with Apache Maven.
|
||
|
If you have a recent installation of java (17) and maven on your system, you should be able to
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. get the sources: `git clone https://git.srsoftware.de/StephanRichter/Widerhall.git`
|
||
|
2. change to the downloaded dir: `cd Widerhall`
|
||
|
3. build the runnable jar: `mvn clean test compile assembly:single`
|
||
|
4. execute the jar: `java -jar target/*.jar`
|
||
|
|
||
|
