Features

Managing Docker images, containers and networks from the command line while also trying to monitor crucial metrics can be tedious and counterintuitive. To make this process more developer-friendly, we created Docketeer: a container management platform for Docker.

Install

  1. Fork and clone this repository to your machine.
git clone https://github.com/open-source-labs/Docketeer.git
  1. Navigate to the project directory and install dependencies.
npm install
  1. Create a .env file in the project's top-level directory.

  • Docketeer ...

    • .env
    • server
    • src

    ...

  1. In the .env file, configure the following environment variables for Twilio API. Refer to Twilio Setup section below.
// .env
TWILIO_NUMBER=''
TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=''
TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=''
SERVICE_SID=''
VERIFICATION_SERVICE_SID=''

  1. Create a folder called security in the project's top-level directory.

  2. Inside of the security folder, create two files email.js and sysadmin.js. These files will store variables related to the email notification service and system admin setup respectively.

  • Docketeer ...

    • security
      • email.js
      • sysadmin.js
    • server
    • src

    ...

  1. In the email.js file, input your organization's organization email credentials. This email address will be used to send email notifications from. The file is already in the .gitignore file.
// email.js
module.exports = {
  host: 'smtp.gmail.com',
  port: 465,
  username: 'example@gmail.com',
  password: 'narwhals',
};
  1. In the sysadmin.js file, input information for the system admin account. If no information is input, the email and phone number for the system admin will be set to default values. These values can always be changed in the system admin's Settings tab.
// sysadmin.js
module.exports = {
  phone: '',
  email: '',
};
  1. Connect your cloud relational database (PostgreSQL) by copying and pasting the connection string to the variable PG_URI the file cloudModel.js located in Docketeer/server/models/.
// cloudModel.js
...
const { Pool } = require('pg');

// Copy and paste your PostgreSQL Connectiion URL below to connect your cloud database. Note: no need to create any tables, upon start up Docketeer will create those tables in your DB instance automatically.

const PG_URI = '';
...

You are all set! Now just enter the following command to start up Docketeer!

npm run dev

Twilio setup

1. Download the helper library from https://www.twilio.com/docs/node/install
2. In order to manage Twilio SMS notifications follow the step plan : https://www.twilio.com/docs/notify/quickstart/sms#messagingservice
3. Store your (i) Twilio number, (ii) Account Sid, (iii) Auth Token from twilio.com/console, (iv) SERVICE_SID, (v) verification service SID in a newly created .env file in the Docketeer folder in the following format:

 MY_PHONE_NUMBER='your mobile number'
 TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID='code from your console'
 TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN='token from your console'
 SERVICE_SID='code from notify service instance'
 VERIFICATION_SERVICE_SID='code from verify service instance'

4. Verification service was created here: https://www.twilio.com/console/verify/services code length and serviceSID can be taken from your Twilio account console.
5. All historical messages from the Twilio account can be found here: https://www.twilio.com/console/sms/logs

Basic usage
