Installation

Requirements

A server with something docker flavoured

Deployment

1. Provide the DNS name of your server in SERVER_URL=
2. Provide a valid email address against which your certificate will be registered in EMAIL_ADDRESS=

docker run -dit -p 80:80 -p 443:443 --restart=unless-stopped --name vdo.ninja -e SERVER_URL=$HOSTNAME -e EMAIL_ADDRESS=emailforcert@domain.com umlatt/vdo.ninja

Notes

Restart Unless Stopped

• If restart unless-stopped flag is not used, please note that after the certifcate is generated, the container will need to be started again.

Certificates:

• Certificates are created/renewed using certbot/letsencrypt.
• NOTE: Autorenewal of certs is not yet configured, however, rebooting the container will trigger a cert renewal.
• NOTE: A VALID DNS NAME IS REQUIRED FOR HTTPS. This is a requirement of HTTPS, not this deployment.

START DELAY

• Please note that, depending on your connection to the let's encrypt service, it may take a little time of your DNS to be registered. You can track the progress by following the steps below. This is typically a matter of several seconds (if a valid DNS name is provided)

docker logs --follow vdo.ninja

You will see the steps of https registration and the output should provide you with the domain name that you configured.
