There are several ways to run PowerDNS-Admin. The quickest way is to use Docker. If you are looking to install and run PowerDNS-Admin directly onto your system, check out the wiki for ways to do that.
Here are two options to run PowerDNS-Admin using Docker. To get started as quickly as possible, try option 1. If you want to make modifications to the configuration option 2 may be cleaner.
To run the application using the latest stable release on Docker Hub, run the following command:
$ docker run -d \
-e SECRET_KEY='a-very-secret-key' \
-v pda-data:/data \
-p 9191:80 \
powerdnsadmin/pda-legacy:latest
This creates a volume named pda-data
to persist the default SQLite database with app configuration.
-
Update the configuration
Edit thedocker-compose.yml
file to update the database connection string inSQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI
. Other environment variables are mentioned in the AppSettings.defaults dictionary. To use a Docker-style secrets convention, one may append_FILE
to the environment variables with a path to a file containing the intended value of the variable (e.g.SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI_FILE=/run/secrets/db_uri
).
Make sure to set the environment variableSECRET_KEY
to a long, random string (https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/config/#SECRET_KEY) -
Start docker container
$ docker-compose up
You can then access PowerDNS-Admin by pointing your browser to http://localhost:9191.
