webENM docker container

Requirements

• working docker server

Installation

MDB Connector Server

• clone the mdb_connector_server into the mdb_connector_server directory
• rename the file src/main/resources/application.properties-example to src/main/resources/application.properties
• edit the src/main/resources/application.properties file:
  • set dbfile.directory to /var/www/html/grade-files/tmp/
  • set mdbconnector.apisecret to some randomly generated secret
  • set mdbconnector.restricttolocalhost to false
• edit the pom.xml file:
  • replace the war in the 'packaging' line by jar:

    ...
    <packaging>jar</packaging>
    ...
    

WebENM Frontend

• clone the schild_webenm into the schild_webenm directory
• rename the constants.php-example files to constants.php
• edit the lib/MDBConnector/constants.php file:
  • set API_SECRET to the same secret as in the MDB Connector Server configuration
  • set MDB_CONN_PATH to the empty string
  • set MDB_CONN_SERVER to mdb-connector-server
• edit the other configuration files as you need them (look at the schild_webenm-README for more information)

deploy

You can now run the containers by typing

docker compose up

into a terminal.

Notice that you have to run

docker compose up --build

whenever you make changes in the configuration files.

Known issues

• The docker command will fail if the line endings of the files are not LF. Make sure that they are LF (especially for the mvnw-file).
