ToolboxAid / Docker-Assistant

This project helps newbies to get started hosting docker with SSL based web sites (includes: Traefik, DDClient, WordPress, Portainer, etc...). More to be added as needed.

Docker Assistant

Requirements:

• These script are written with bash, so a linux kernel is required.
• You will need root access to execute these scripts
• A domain name - I use Google domains as it is so easy to manage and works great with my DDclient
  • (something like 'example.com')
• Knowledge of how to install Docker
  • Linux reference -> https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/
  • Synology reference -> install package Docker: https://www.synology.com/en-global/dsm/packages/Docker
• Knowledge of how to install git -
  • Linux refererenct > https://gist.github.com/derhuerst/1b15ff4652a867391f03
  • I'm using Synology DSM 7.0 -> so I installed 'Git Server' Package Center
    • https://gist.github.com/walkerjeffd/374750c366605cd5123d
    • http://blog.osdev.org/git/2014/02/13/using-git-on-a-synology-nas.html
• Knowledge of an editor to maintenace/edit your .env files.
  • Pick one of these editors: 'notepad' 'vi .env' 'vim .env' or 'nano .env'
• Knowledge DNS records you need
• Start with the default networks only:

  NETWORK ID	NAME	DRIVER	SCOPE
  ############	bridge	bridge	local
  ############	host	host	local
  ############	none	null	local

What this will NOT do for you:

• Teach you how to debug any issues you may have

You CANNOT move scripts between directories (if you do, learn to debug).

Your clone directory will contain ( I used:'./docker_assistant/')

/voloume1
  └── docker_assistant
       ├── custom_data - misc files used in a container setup
       ├── scripts     - re-usable code base (bash scripts)
       └── templates   - deployment container and scripts

Templates are deployed in two of the three directories off the ./docker_assistant/:

/voloume1
  └── docker_assistant
       ├── dev   not a deploy directory, this is where we try things out, or setup a degug environment.
       ├── lan   1 local area network, no intarnet access, only intranet (local lan) via a whitelist (wan access will receive a not authorized)
       └── wan   2 wide area network, accessible from internet and intranet

Each template will have a dedicated folder and deployment script

Naming standard should be {PACKAGE_NAME}-{VERSION}

• i.e. Template: 'whoami' is deployed using the script 'whoami.sh'

Every template will contain the below set of scripts (no description as they are self explanatory)

Currently, these do not have any parameters, so no -h option If the deployment package does not support something, a message will be diplayed when executed

/voloume1
  └── docker_assistant
       └── {lan or wan}
            └── {container_name}
                ├── attach.sh
                ├── down.sh
                ├── env.sh
                ├── log.error.sh
                ├── log.standard.sh
                ├── log.tail.sh
                ├── restart.sh
                └──  up.sh

You can execute these by doing:

sudo ./{script}.sh
sudo ./up.sh

Docker external network access meaning:

• external: false # prevents talking to other containers (creates new network for exe)
• external: true # allows talking to other containers (used defined network in docker-compose)
