jerdesign/agora

Agora is a platform for collaboration. Users can connect, share files, chat, discuss and share knowledge. It bundles existing open source projects with Nextcloud at its core.

Built (mostly) with

• Nextcloud - file sharing, chat, contacts
• Keycloak - identity and access management
• Discourse - discussion forum
• MediaWiki - wiki
• Traefik - reverse proxy, load balancing
• Grafana/Loki - logging

Getting Started

Prerequisites

docker engine 20.10 We use docker swarm in combination with traefik. This allows for lightweight container orchestration. If you want to use Logging, also install the loki-docker-driver plugin.

Installing

1. set up swarm and networks

./bin/init_swarm.sh

we use socket proxy for traefik

3. configure stacks

Most stack require some configuration and secrets. For an initial setup, check the instructions at /edge, /forum, /keycloak, /wiki and /monitor. docker stack deploy does not support environment variables, hence for production:

4. deploy stacks

manually:

$ env ENV=prod HOST=agora-oegd.de docker stack deploy -c edge.yml edge
$ env ENV=prod HOST=agora-oegd.de docker stack deploy -c wiki.yml wiki --with-registry-auth
$ env ENV=prod HOST=agora-oegd.de docker stack deploy -c forum.yml forum --with-registry-auth
$ env ENV=prod HOST=agora-oegd.de docker stack deploy -c nextcloud.yml nextcloud --with-registry-auth

automated:

./bin/deploy.sh edge
