Self-hosted Nunux Keeper

Your personal content curation service.

This project is an automated setup to configure and run a self-hosted instance of Nunux Keeper.

Prerequisites

Docker
Docker Compose
Make
At least 2GB of free Memory
A bit of patience depending of your bandwidth

Installation

The installation is fully automated. Simply run the following commands on a Docker host:

git clone https://github.com/nunux-keeper/keeper-docker.git
cd keeper-docker
make deploy

This command will setup the following services:

Traefik: A dynamic reverse proxy used to route incoming requests to appropriate backend.
MongoDB: The database backend.
Elasticsearch: The search engine backend.
Redis: The in-memory database used as an event bus by the job scheduler.
Keycloak: The Identity and Access Management service. This service is auto configured by scripting.
Nunux Keeper Core API: The core API of Nunux Keeper.
Nunux Keeper job worker: A job worker for Nunux Keeper background tasks.
Nunux Keeper Web App: The Web App of Nunux Keeper.

Container's persistent data are located into the ./var directory. If you want to make a fresh installation from scratch don't forget to destroy this directory.

Uninstallation

Uninstallation is as simple:

make undeploy

Configuration

Configuration is located into the ./etc directory. Please check *.env files in order to see what parameters can you change to fit your needs. Beware that some parameters can break this automatic setup and should not be modified.

By default the application is configured to be hosted on http://localhost. If you want to change this you can edit the .env file.

Usage

Once started, Yous can access to those URL:

http://localhost/auth : Identity And Access Management service (Username/Password: admin/admin)
http://localhost/keeper : Nunux Keeper Web App (Username/Password: keeper/keeper)
http://localhost/api : Nunux Keeper API
http://localhost:8080 : Traefik dashboard

What is missing?

There is some missing parts not very useful for doing content curation. But you may be interested in:

Nunux Keeper Portal: The official Nunux Keeper web portal.
Nunux Keeper CLI: The CLI
Metrics production: Nunux Keeper is able to produce metrics to any StatsD collector. Then you can aggregate and visualize those metrics with some great tools like InfluxDB and Grafana.
Object Storage: Nunux Keeper is able to use a S3 compatible object storage (like Minio) to store documents attachments.
And a lot of operational stuff: monitoring, alerting, backups, etc.

Troubleshooting

If you have trouble to start Elasticsearch and you have the following message into your logs:

make logs service=elasticsearch

...
max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to atleast [262144]
...

You have to increase this system property and restart some services:

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
make restart service=elasticsearch
make restart service=keeper-core-api
make restart service=keeper-job-worker
