Install from scratch.

This is a tiny guide to install cryptgeon on (probably) any unix system (and maybe windows?) from scratch using traefik as the proxy, which will manage certificates and handle https for us.

  1. Install Docker & Docker Compose.
  2. Install Traefik.
  3. Run the cryptgeon.
  4. [Optional] install watchtower to keep up to date.

Install Docker & Docker Compose

Install Traefik 2.0

Traefik is a router & proxy that makes deployment of containers incredibly easy. It will manage all the https certificates, routing, etc.

/foo/bar/traefik/

Run

docker network create proxy
docker-compose up -d

Cryptgeon

Create another docker-compose.yaml file in another folder. We will assume that the domain is cryptgeon.example.org.

/foo/bar/cryptgeon/
└── docker-compose.yaml
version: '3.8'

networks:
  proxy:
    external: true

services:
  redis:
    image: redis:7-alpine
    restart: unless-stopped

  app:
    image: cupcakearmy/cryptgeon:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    depends_on:
      - redis
    environment:
      SIZE_LIMIT: 4 MiB
    networks:
      - default
      - proxy
    labels:
      - traefik.enable=true
      - traefik.http.routers.cryptgeon.rule=Host(`cryptgeon.example.org`)
      - traefik.http.routers.cryptgeon.entrypoints=secure
      - traefik.http.routers.cryptgeon.tls.certresolver=le

Run

docker-compose up -d

Watchtower

A container-based solution for automating Docker container base image updates.

Watchtower will keep our containers up to date. The interval is set to once a day and also configured to delete old images to prevent cluttering.

/foo/bar/watchtower/
└── docker-compose.yaml
# docker-compose.yaml

version: '3.8'

services:
  watchtower:
    image: containrrr/watchtower
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
    command: --cleanup --interval 86400
