OMP Server ULB

Enviroment setup for OMP Docker ULB

In order to streamline the development for our OJS and OMP applications and to ease the deployment of ready-to-go code from our test environment onto our productive environment, we have decided to use Docker. What follows is an outline of the steps necessary to run an OMP installation in a Docker container. As far as we know, there is no Docker setup from PKP yet so we build our own Dockerfile, inspired on our existing OJS dockerisation. -> https://github.com/pkp/docker-ojs

Our data for (dev)Server and Database containers is located here:

/data/ompdev

Setup enviroment

First we need to create all directories, referenced as volume form docker-compose-ompdev.yml

/data/ompdev/config
/data/ompdev/db
/data/ompdev/files
/data/ompdev/logs
/data/ompdev/plugins
/data/ompdev/private
/data/ompdev/public

(same for docker-compose-ompprod.yml)

uid and gid of directories should correspond within the container ids

e.g.: container omp_app_ulb

 $ id apache   
 uid=100(apache) gid=101(apache) groups=101(apache),82(www-data),101(apache)

container omp_dbdev_ulb:

 $ id mysql  
 uid=999(mysql) gid=999(mysql) groups=999(mysql)

So set appropriate on host machine:

sudo chown 100:101  /data/ompdev/ -R
sudo chown 999:999  /data/ompdev/logs/db -R 
sudo chown 999:999  /data/ompdev/db -R 

From your clone directory start ./build.sh

This will setup all data for you to start the docker container in developent, production or local mode. (There is probably some extra work if you start from scratch.)

To start container use start and stop scripts:

./start-omp local
./stop-omp local

Please check .env for further settings!

GitLab CI/CD

If you are working with gitlab you can use the .gitlab-ci.yml to fire up your gitlab-runner.
