|  | 30 | +## Demo environment | 
|  | 31 | + | 
|  | 32 | +It is simple to setup the Index GUI with the default | 
|  | 33 | +configuration and run it using the pre-built public docker image: | 
|  | 34 | + | 
|  | 35 | +With Docker: | 
|  | 36 | + | 
|  | 37 | +```sh | 
|  | 38 | +docker run -it torrust/index-gui:latest | 
|  | 39 | +``` | 
|  | 40 | + | 
|  | 41 | +or with Podman: | 
|  | 42 | + | 
|  | 43 | +```sh | 
|  | 44 | +podman run -it torrust/index-gui:latest | 
|  | 45 | +``` | 
|  | 46 | + | 
|  | 47 | +## Requirements | 
|  | 48 | + | 
|  | 49 | +- Tested with recent versions of Docker or Podman. | 
|  | 50 | + | 
|  | 51 | +## Container Volumes | 
|  | 52 | + | 
|  | 53 | +The [Containerfile](../Containerfile) (i.e. the Dockerfile) Defines one volume: | 
|  | 54 | + | 
|  | 55 | +```Dockerfile | 
|  | 56 | +VOLUME ["/var/log/torrust/tracker"] | 
|  | 57 | +``` | 
|  | 58 | + | 
|  | 59 | +When instancing the container image with the `docker run` or `podman run` command, we map the volumes to the local storage: | 
|  | 60 | + | 
|  | 61 | +```s | 
|  | 62 | +./storage/index-gui/log -> /var/log/torrust/index-gui | 
|  | 63 | +``` | 
|  | 64 | + | 
|  | 65 | +> NOTE: You can adjust this mapping for your preference, however this mapping is the default in our guides and scripts. | 
|  | 66 | +
 | 
|  | 67 | +### Pre-Create Host-Mapped Folders | 
|  | 68 | + | 
|  | 69 | +Please run this command where you wish to run the container: | 
|  | 70 | + | 
|  | 71 | +```sh | 
|  | 72 | +mkdir -p ./storage/index-gui/log/ | 
|  | 73 | +``` | 
|  | 74 | + | 
|  | 75 | +### Matching Ownership ID's of Host Storage and Container Volumes | 
|  | 76 | + | 
|  | 77 | +It is important that the `torrust` user has the same uid `$(id -u)` as the host mapped folders. In our [entry script](../share/container/entry_script_sh), installed to `/usr/local/bin/entry.sh` inside the container, switches to the `torrust` user created based upon the `USER_ID` environmental variable. | 
|  | 78 | + | 
|  | 79 | +When running the container, you may use the `--env USER_ID="$(id -u)"` argument that gets the current user-id and passes to the container. | 
|  | 80 | + | 
|  | 81 | +### Mapped Tree Structure | 
|  | 82 | + | 
|  | 83 | +Using the standard mapping defined above produces this following mapped tree: | 
|  | 84 | + | 
|  | 85 | +```s | 
|  | 86 | +storage/index-gui/ | 
|  | 87 | +└── log                    => /var/log/torrust/index-gui (future use) | 
|  | 88 | +``` | 
|  | 89 | + | 
|  | 90 | +> NOTE: we don't support `tls` directly. You have to use a reverse proxy to access the | 
|  | 91 | +application using HTTPs. See <https://github.com/torrust/torrust-index/issues/131>. | 
|  | 92 | +
 | 
|  | 93 | +## Building the Container | 
|  | 94 | + | 
|  | 95 | +### Clone and Change into Repository | 
|  | 96 | + | 
|  | 97 | +```sh | 
|  | 98 | +# Inside your dev folder | 
|  | 99 | +git clone https://github.com/torrust/torrust-index-gui.git; cd torrust-index-gui | 
|  | 100 | +``` | 
|  | 101 | + | 
|  | 102 | +### (Docker) Setup Context | 
|  | 103 | + | 
|  | 104 | +Before starting, if you are using docker, it is helpful to reset the context to the default: | 
|  | 105 | + | 
|  | 106 | +```sh | 
|  | 107 | +docker context use default | 
|  | 108 | +``` | 
|  | 109 | + | 
|  | 110 | +### (Docker) Build | 
|  | 111 | + | 
|  | 112 | +```sh | 
|  | 113 | +# Release Mode | 
|  | 114 | +docker build --target release --tag torrust-index-gui:release --file Containerfile . | 
|  | 115 | + | 
|  | 116 | +# Debug Mode | 
|  | 117 | +docker build --target debug --tag torrust-index-gui:debug --file Containerfile . | 
|  | 118 | +``` | 
|  | 119 | + | 
|  | 120 | +### (Podman) Build | 
|  | 121 | + | 
|  | 122 | +```sh | 
|  | 123 | +# Release Mode | 
|  | 124 | +podman build --target release --tag torrust-index-gui:release --format docker --file Containerfile . | 
|  | 125 | + | 
|  | 126 | +# Debug Mode | 
|  | 127 | +podman build --target debug --tag torrust-index-gui:debug --format docker --file Containerfile . | 
|  | 128 | +``` | 
|  | 129 | + | 
|  | 130 | +> NOTE: we use `--format docker` because `HEALTHCHECK` is not supported for OCI image format and it is ignored otherwise. | 
|  | 131 | +
 | 
|  | 132 | +## Running the Container | 
|  | 133 | + | 
|  | 134 | +### Basic Run | 
|  | 135 | + | 
|  | 136 | +No arguments are needed for simply checking the container image works: | 
|  | 137 | + | 
|  | 138 | +#### (Docker) Run Basic | 
|  | 139 | + | 
|  | 140 | +```sh | 
|  | 141 | +# Release Mode | 
|  | 142 | +docker run -it torrust-index-gui:release | 
|  | 143 | + | 
|  | 144 | +# Debug Mode | 
|  | 145 | +docker run -it torrust-index-gui:debug | 
|  | 146 | +``` | 
|  | 147 | + | 
|  | 148 | +#### (Podman) Run Basic | 
|  | 149 | + | 
|  | 150 | +```sh | 
|  | 151 | +# Release Mode | 
|  | 152 | +podman run -it torrust-index-gui:release | 
|  | 153 | + | 
|  | 154 | +# Debug Mode | 
|  | 155 | +podman run -it torrust-index-gui:debug | 
|  | 156 | +``` | 
|  | 157 | + | 
|  | 158 | +### Arguments | 
|  | 159 | + | 
|  | 160 | +The arguments need to be placed before the image tag. i.e. | 
|  | 161 | + | 
|  | 162 | +`run [arguments] torrust-index-gui:release` | 
|  | 163 | + | 
|  | 164 | +#### Environmental Variables | 
|  | 165 | + | 
|  | 166 | +Environmental variables are loaded through the `--env`, in the format `--env VAR="value"`. | 
|  | 167 | + | 
|  | 168 | +The following environmental variables can be set: | 
|  | 169 | + | 
|  | 170 | +- `USER_ID` - The user id for the runtime crated `torrust` user. Please Note: This user id should match the ownership of the host-mapped volumes, (default `1000`). | 
|  | 171 | +- `INDEX_GUI_PORT` - The port on which the web application is served (default `3000`). | 
|  | 172 | +- `NUXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE` - The base [Index API](https://github.com/torrust/torrust-index) URL the frontend connects to (default `http://localhost:3001/v1`). | 
|  | 173 | + | 
|  | 174 | +### Sockets | 
|  | 175 | + | 
|  | 176 | +Socket ports used internally within the container can be mapped to with the `--publish` argument. | 
|  | 177 | + | 
|  | 178 | +The format is: `--publish [optional_host_ip]:[host_port]:[container_port]/[optional_protocol]`, for example: `--publish 127.0.0.1:3000:80/tcp`. | 
|  | 179 | + | 
|  | 180 | +The default ports can be mapped with the following (IPv4 and IPv6): | 
|  | 181 | + | 
|  | 182 | +```s | 
|  | 183 | +--publish 0.0.0.0:3000:3000/tcp \ | 
|  | 184 | +--publish [::]:3000:3000/tcp | 
|  | 185 | +``` | 
|  | 186 | + | 
|  | 187 | +> NOTE: Inside the container it is necessary to expose a socket with the wildcard address `0.0.0.0` so that it may be accessible from the host. Verify that the configuration that the sockets are wildcard. | 
|  | 188 | +
 | 
|  | 189 | +### Volumes | 
|  | 190 | + | 
|  | 191 | +By default the container will install a volume for `/var/log/torrust/tracker`, however for better administration it's good to make this volume host-mapped. | 
|  | 192 | + | 
|  | 193 | +The argument to host-map volumes is `--volume`, with the format: `--volume=[host-src:]container-dest[:<options>]`. | 
|  | 194 | + | 
|  | 195 | +The default mapping can be supplied with the following arguments: | 
|  | 196 | + | 
|  | 197 | +```s | 
|  | 198 | +--volume ./storage/index-gui/log:/var/log/torrust/index-gui:Z | 
|  | 199 | +``` | 
|  | 200 | + | 
|  | 201 | +Please not the `:Z` at the end of the podman `--volume` mapping arguments, this is to give read-write permission on SELinux enabled systemd, if this doesn't work on your system, you can use `:rw` instead. | 
|  | 202 | + | 
|  | 203 | +## Complete Example | 
|  | 204 | + | 
|  | 205 | +### With Docker |

|  | 237 | +    torrust-index-gui:release | 
|  | 238 | +``` | 
|  | 239 | + | 
|  | 240 | +### With Podman | 
|  | 241 | + | 
|  | 242 | +```sh | 
|  | 243 | +## Build Container Image |

|  | 271 | + | 
|  | 272 | +## Docker Compose | 
|  | 273 | + | 
|  | 274 | +The docker-compose configuration includes the MySQL service configuration. It's only used for the Tracker and Index. | 
|  | 275 | +Please refer to their documentation for more information. | 
|  | 276 | + | 
|  | 277 | +### Build and Run | 
|  | 278 | + | 
|  | 279 | +```sh | 
|  | 280 | +mkdir -p ./storage/tracker/log/ | 
|  | 281 | + | 
|  | 282 | +USER_ID=${USER_ID:-1000} \ | 
|  | 283 | +    TORRUST_INDEX_CONFIG=$(cat ./share/default/config/index.e2e.container.sqlite3.toml) \ | 
|  | 284 | +    TORRUST_TRACKER_CONFIG=$(cat ./share/default/config/tracker.e2e.container.sqlite3.toml) \ | 
|  | 285 | +    docker compose build | 
|  | 286 | + | 
|  | 287 | +USER_ID=${USER_ID:-1000} \ | 
|  | 288 | +    TORRUST_INDEX_CONFIG=$(cat ./share/default/config/index.e2e.container.sqlite3.toml) \ |

|  | 296 | +    docker compose up --detach --pull  always --remove-orphans     | 
|  | 297 | +``` | 
|  | 298 | + | 
|  | 299 | +After running the `compose up` command you will have these running containers: | 
|  | 300 | + | 
|  | 301 | +```s | 
|  | 302 | +$ docker ps | 
|  | 303 | +CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                       COMMAND                  CREATED          STATUS                    PORTS                                                                                                                                       NAMES |

|  | 309 | +``` | 
|  | 310 | + | 
|  | 311 | +And you should be able to use the application, for example making a request to: | 
|  | 312 | + | 
|  | 313 | +<http://127.0.0.1:3000> | 
|  | 314 | + | 
|  | 315 | +You can stop the containers with: | 
|  | 316 | + | 
|  | 317 | +```s | 
|  | 318 | +docker compose down | 
|  | 319 | +``` | 
|  | 320 | + | 
|  | 321 | +Additionally, you can delete all resources (containers, volumes, networks) with: | 
|  | 322 | + | 
|  | 323 | +```s | 
|  | 324 | +docker compose down -v | 
|  | 325 | +``` | 
|  | 326 | + | 
|  | 327 | +### Access Mysql with docker | 
|  | 328 | + | 
|  | 329 | +These are some useful commands for MySQL. | 
|  | 330 | + | 
|  | 331 | +Open a shell in the MySQL container using docker or docker-compose. | 
|  | 332 | + | 
|  | 333 | +```s | 
|  | 334 | +docker exec -it torrust-mysql-1 /bin/bash  | 
|  | 335 | +docker compose exec mysql /bin/bash | 
|  | 336 | +``` | 
|  | 337 | + | 
|  | 338 | +Connect to MySQL from inside the MySQL container or from the host: | 
|  | 339 | + | 
|  | 340 | +```s | 
|  | 341 | +mysql -h127.0.0.1 -uroot -proot_secret_password | 
|  | 342 | +``` | 
|  | 343 | + | 
|  | 344 | +The when MySQL container is started the first time, it creates the database, user, and permissions needed. | 
|  | 345 | +If you see the error "Host is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server" you can check that users have the right permissions in the database. Make sure the user `root` and `db_user` can connect from any host (`%`). | 
|  | 346 | + | 
|  | 347 | +```s | 
|  | 348 | +mysql> SELECT host, user FROM mysql.user; | 
|  | 349 | ++-----------+------------------+ | 
|  | 350 | +| host      | user             | | 
|  | 351 | ++-----------+------------------+ | 
|  | 352 | +| %         | db_user          | | 
|  | 353 | +| %         | root             | | 
|  | 354 | +| localhost | mysql.infoschema | | 
|  | 355 | +| localhost | mysql.session    | | 
|  | 356 | +| localhost | mysql.sys        | | 
|  | 357 | +| localhost | root             | | 
|  | 358 | ++-----------+------------------+ | 
|  | 359 | +6 rows in set (0.00 sec) | 
|  | 360 | +``` | 
|  | 361 | + | 
|  | 362 | +If the database, user or permissions are not created the reason could be the MySQL container volume can be corrupted. Delete it and start again the containers. |
