[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/haiwen/seafile-docker.png?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/haiwen/seafile-docker)
### About
- [Docker](https://docker.com/) is an open source project to pack, ship and run any Linux application in a lighter weight, faster container than a traditional virtual machine.
- Docker makes it much easier to deploy [a Seafile server](https://github.com/haiwen/seafile) on your servers and keep it updated.
- The base image configures Seafile with the Seafile team's recommended optimal defaults.
### Getting Started
Generate seafile image, and run the image.
```
sudo git clone https://github.com/haiwen/seafile-docker.git /var/seafile/
cd /var/seafile/image
make base
make server
docker run -d --name seafile-server -v /root/seafile:/shared -p 80:80 seafileltd/seafile:6.2.1
```
Now visit `http://hostname` or `https://hostname` to open Seafile Web UI.
If you are not familiar with docker commands, refer to [docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/).
### How to use
#### Custom admin username and password
The default account is `me@example.com` and the password is `asecret`.
You must change the password when you first run the seafile server.
If you forget the admin password, you can add a new admin account and then go to the sysadmin panel to reset user password.
#### Domain
You can create `/shared/bootstrap.conf`, write the following lines.
[server]
server.hostname = seafile.example.com
And then restart service, nginx will update up config.
#### Modify configurations
The config files are under `shared/seafile/conf`. You can modify the configurations according to [Seafile manual](https://manual.seafile.com/)
After modification, run the new docker container:
```
docker rm -f seafile-server
docker run -d --name seafile-server -v /root/seafile:/shared -p 80:80 seafileltd/seafile:6.2.1
```
#### Find logs
The seafile logs are under `shared/logs/seafile`.
The system logs are under `shared/logs/var-log`.
#### Add a new Admin
Enter the command below.
```
docker exec -it seafile-server /opt/seafile/seafile-server-latest/reset-admin.sh
```
Enter the username and password according to the prompts.You now have a new admin account.
### Directory Structure
#### `/bootstrap`
This directory is for container definitions for your Seafile containers. You are in charge of this directory, it ships empty.
#### `/samples`
Sample container definitions you may use to bootstrap your environment. You can copy templates from here into the bootstrap directory.
#### `/shared`
Placeholder spot for shared volumes. You may elect to store certain persistent information outside of a container, in our case we keep various logfiles and upload directory outside. This allows you to rebuild containers easily without losing important information.
- /shared/db: This is the data directory for mysql server
- /shared/seafile: This is the directory for seafile server configuration and data.
- /shared/logs: This is the directory for logs.
- /shared/logs/var-log: This is the directory that would be mounted as `/var/log` inside the container. For example, you can find the nginx logs in `shared/logs/var-log/nginx/`.
- /shared/logs/seafile: This is the directory that would contain the log files of seafile server processes. For example, you can find seaf-server logs in `shared/logs/seafile/seafile.log`.
- /shared/ssl: This is directory for certificate, which does not exist by default.
- /shared/bootstrap.conf: This file does not exist by default. You can create it by your self, and write the configuration of files similar to the `samples` folder.
#### `/templates`
Various jinja2 templates used for seafile server configuration.
#### `/image`
Dockerfiles for Seafile.
The Docker repository will always contain the latest built version at: https://hub.docker.com/r/seafileltd/seafile/, you should not need to build the base image.
### Container Configuration
#### Let's encrypt SSL certificate
If you set `server.letsencrypt` to `true`, the bootstrap script would request a letsencrypt-signed SSL certificate for you.
```conf
server.letsencrypt = true
```
If you want to use your own SSL certificate:
- create a folder 'shared/ssl', and put your certificate and private key under the ssl directory.
- Assume your site name is "seafile.example.com", then your certificate must have the name "seafile.example.com.crt", and the private key must have the name "seafile.example.com.key".
### Upgrading Seafile Server
ensure same version of the repo, and run start command`docker run -d --name seafile-server -v /root/seafile:/shared -p 80:80 seafileltd/seafile:6.2.1 `, which would keep your seafile server up to date.
### Troubleshooting
You can run the command as "docker logs" or "docker exec" to find errors.
### Developing with Vagrant
If you are looking to make modifications to this repository, you can easily test
out your changes before committing, using the magic
of [Vagrant](http://vagrantup.com). Install Vagrant as
per
[the default instructions](http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/installation/index.html),
and then run:
vagrant up
This will spawn a new Ubuntu VM, install Docker, and then await your
instructions. You can then SSH into the VM with `vagrant ssh`, become `root`
with `sudo -i`, and then you're right to go. Your live git repo is already
available at `/var/seafile`, so you can just `cd /var/seafile` and then start
running `launcher`.
### Special Thanks
Lots of the design of this repo is borrowed from the excellent [discourse-docker](https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker) project. Thanks for their insipiration!
