DOCKER
Assuming you have installed docker on a server,
it is much easier to setup YBDB with the docker image at
https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/bikebike/ybdb/ or build
a customized version from the source code at https://github.com/fspc/ybdb .
As part of Positive Spin's project to determine which software would best
fit our needs, docker demos were created from all known existing F/OSS
community bike shop software at http://bikebike.wvcompletestreets.org .
CUSTOMIZE
If you want to build your own image to use at a Community Bike Shop,
you will most likely want to setup ssl for the http server, create
self-signed certificates and a htpasswd file (see secure-terminals.txt),
and edit populate.sql and database_functions.php. These changes will
need to be reflected in the Dockerfile.
Never forget, if you make changes to any Community Bike Shop code,
merge your changes back into the main project so that all collectives
may benefit from the awesomeness of Free Software.
WHAT NEXT?
You will want to keep regular backups, have scripts that start/stop the container, and
monitor the main docker process.
BACKUPS
Redundancy is great. Save backups to at least two locations.
Obviously, the "YB" Database is the most important thing to backup,
and Docker makes backing up a container easy.
START/STOP SCRIPTS
Example of the standard upstart script used to start/stop bikebike docker containers:
description "Positive O Spin's container"
author "Jonathan Rosenbaum <gnuser@gmail.com>"
start on started docker
stop on runlevel [016]
respawn
exec start-stop-daemon --start --make-pidfile --pidfile /var/run/pos.pid --exec /usr/bin/docker start pos
MONITOR DOCKER PROCESS
Because docker container processes are children processes that change,
only the main docker pidfile is monitored by monit.
check process docker
with pidfile /var/run/docker.pid
start = "/sbin/start docker"
stop = "/sbin/stop docker"
