Installation

For developing locally, please look further below

To build the docker image:

  1. Create a netsocadmin/config.py following the same format as of that in netsocadmin/config.py. This file configures the netsoc admin server itself.
  2. In this directory, run the following for a non development image:
docker build -t docker.netsoc.co/netsoc/netsocadmin .

To run the docker image:

docker run \
    -d -p 5050:5050 \
    --name netsocadmin \
    -v /path/to/backups:/backups \
    -v /path/to/home/dirs:/home/users \
    -v /path/to/admin_passwords.py:/netsocadmin/config.py \
    docker.netsoc.co/netsocadmin:latest

Developer Environment

Please checkout our Netsoc Developer Environment

Note

Just to be aware that testing on MacOS might require you to build the netsocadmin docker image locally to test it, due to some issues with crypt functions on MacOS. I don't know why it's a thing, but it is :(

  1. docker build -t netsocadmin .
  2. docker run -d -p 5050:5050 --name netsocadmin --net host netsocadmin
  3. Connect to localhost:5050 and continue as normal
