2. First startup
create a
.envfile from the.env.exampleand configure the environment variables according to the comments in the file.
on the same level as
openimis-dist_dkrdirectory, there should be aconfdirectory (this is used for storing instance-specific configuration that will be reused if the docker containers are restarted)if you use the demo docker 'db' service (not for production!):
The default database is the demo instance, to set-up an empty instance please setup the database manual from the script attached to each release sql-files.zip in the asset section
accept the Microsoft EULA for the MSSQL database container (set the value of
ACCEPT_EULAtoY)build and start the docker compose:
docker-compose up -d
(or for Microsoft database:docker-compose -f docker-compose-mssql.yml up -d
Updating the certificates of the frontend is required for production usage
openimis-gateway_dkr/certs/.
Using the docker database is not advised for production.
This docker-compose doesn’t use REDIS and Celery. If multi-backend is required, please check the docker-compose in the
openimis-dist_dkrdirectory or create a ticket.To add a new backend user, you must edit the
/conf/.htpasswdin the gateway container (scripts will be written later).
stop/start
