ownCloud is a self-hosted file sync and share server. It provides access to your data through a web interface, sync clients or WebDAV while providing a platform to view, sync and share across devices easily—all under your control. And to don't get any failure of data loss and making automation for files have used docker here.
With this repo you can Automatically:-
- Pull images from DockerHub
- Create Docker volumes for permanent use.
- Set Up MySQl Database.
- Set up ownCloud self-hosted file sync and share server.
- RedHat Linux RHEL8
- Docker
- owncloud
- MYSQl
Make sure you have the latest versions of Docker and Docker Compose installed on your machine.
For Docker installation on linux[Ubuntu Distro/Similar commands for other distro as well]
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io
sudo apt install docker.io
- Configure yum by adding docker.repo and dvd.repo inside the
/etc/yum.repos.dfor local installation using https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo - Now, run command
yum install docker-ce --nobest
$ sudo systemctl start docker
After Docker installation Now install Docker Compose:-
sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.21.2/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
After installation of the above files:-
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
Download The NextCloud and MySQL image from https://hub.docker.com using
docker pull owncloud:latest
docker pull mysql:5.7
commands.
Write a command
docker -i -t -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=(your_password) -e MYSQL_USER=(username) -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=(your_password) -e MYSQL_DATABASE= (any_database_name) --name dbos mysql:5.7
If you want to verify that your database folder has been created or not, install MySQL client software using yum install mysql. After installation run this command :
mysql -h 172.17.0.0/16 (your MySQL container IP) -u (username) -p
Install a docker-compose software from https://docs.docker.com/compose/install. Make a compose file using
mkdir mycompose.
You can create/edit your docker-compose file using
vim docker-compose.yml
The file name should always be docker-compose.yml
Open a terminal and cd to the folder in which docker-compose.yml is saved and run:-
docker-compose up
Hola!, Everything is Set now the containers are now built and running. You should be able to access the WordPress installation with the configured IP in the windows browser address by http://192.168.xx.xx:8081 and for linux OS http://172.1x.x.x:8081.[Change it accordingly]
Start the containers with the up command in daemon mode (by adding -d as an argument) or by using the start command:
docker-compose start
docker-compose stop
All our data will be permanent if we mount a volume to the folders where OwnCloud and MySQL stores data. The data will remain permanent if any of the container terminates. For that you have to create volumes first.
OwnCloud uses database server. We have to specify which database container it should depend on.
To expose our container to outside world by using PAT.
Linux firewall won't allow to connect to MySQL database server and to outside world. Hence following commands should be implemented first in order to connect to server.
- selinux 0
- iptables -F
- iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
- firewall-cmd --zone=trusted --change-interface=docker0 --permanent (If there are any other networks for docker add them too like br-xxxxx)
- firewall-cmd --zone=trusted --add-masquerade --permanent
- firewall-cmd --add-port=3306/tcp
- firewall-cmd --reload
- systemctl restart docker
- Change your network settings to Bridge Adapter
This is a docker project built for need of automation and maintaining the server database in cases when local system crashes, Docker is too fast in building OS i.e. in few seconds this will help owncloud to maintain file storage safe.
