NyakudyaA / docker-geogig

A docker container for using geogig (formerly known as geogit)

I assume you have docker and docker-composer installed already.So all instructions below are based on 16.04 as the host:

Change the username and email address in the bash command to run the container:

docker pull kartoza/geogig:$VER
# Where Version can be set to dev or latest stable release and also varies based on  the storage backend
# Run the Postgres database and link it to the geogig image
docker run --name "db" -p 25434:5432 -d -t kartoza/postgis:9.5-2.2 
docker run -e USER_NAME='name' -e EMAIL='[e-mail]' --name="geogig" -p 38080:8182 --link db:db  -d  kartoza/geogig

If you want to build the image yourself using the Docker recipe then do the following:

sudo apt-get install apt-cacher-ng

git clone [e-mail]:kartoza/docker-geogig.git
cd docker-geogig

VERSION build arg can be set to dev for the developmental branch development build or to a specific version, the default value is 1.1.1 and it will build geogig-1.1.1.

BACKEND Can be set to FILE or DATABASE. FILE Backend uses the rocks-db storage backend DATABASE uses the PostgreSQL backend

OSMPLUGIN build arg to be set to OSM to install OSM dev geogig plugin

docker-compose up -d --build

The build assumes that you have a docker-geoserver image that has the geogig extension built with it. For instructions on how to build geoserver with geogig follow the instructions at kartoza geoserver

To build and bring the services up to custom environment variables edit the .env files accordingly.

It's going to take a long time (and consume a chunk of bandwidth) for the build because you have any docker base operating system images on your system and the maven build grabs a lot of jars.

Once the docker services are up a user should be able to clone the remote repository locally using the command:

geogig clone http://localhost:38080/repos/gis gisdata-repo-clone

Before cloning the repository make sure that you have geogig installed locally. You can follow the instructions from Geogig Install
