Docker Deployment

Trudesk requires the following addtional docker containers in order to run. Please see the documentation related to those images for additional configuration options you may require.

Deploy with Docker-Compose​

Within the Github repo, a sample docker-compose.yml file is included. We can quickly stand up a demo site with docker.

Download docker-compose.yml from Github repo

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/polonel/trudesk/master/docker-compose.yml

Stand Up Docker Stack

docker-compose up

Three containers are deployed; MongoDB, ElasticSearch, Trudesk. Once all containers are online, access the Trudesk instance at http://localhost:8118

Note: By default MongoDB and Elastic search ports are exposed to the host and should be used for testing purposes only, NOT FOR PRODUCTION

Manual Deployment​

Example Configuration

The following Docker configuration is presented as an example. Your configuration may require addtional options depending on your deployment

Setup Storage Directories​

Create directories to store the data for the containers we are going to deploy. Data directories are needed for MongDB, ElasticSearch, and Trudesk

sudo mkdir -p /data/db & \
sudo mkdir -p /data/configdb & \
sudo mkdir -p /data/es/data & \
sudo mkdir -p /data/trudesk/plugins & \
sudo mkdir -p /data/trudesk/uploads & \
sudo mkdir -p /data/trudesk/backups & \

MongoDB 5​

Run the deployment command to start a MongoDB 5 container with storage path of /data/db. Please refer to the MongoDB Docker Documentation for additional configuration options.

docker run --name mongodb \
-v /data/db:/data/db \
-v /data/configdb:/data/configdb \
-p 27017:27017 \
-d mongo:5.0

ElasticSearch 8​

Run the deployment command to start a ElasticSearch 8 container with a storage path of /data/es/data. Please refer to the ElasticSearch Docker Documentation for additional configuration options.

docker run --name elasticsearch \
-p 9200:9200 \
-p 9300:9300 \
-v /data/es/data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data
-e xpack.security.enabled=false \
-e xpack.security.http.ssl.enabled=false \
-e node.name=estrudesk01 \
-e cluster.initial_master_nodes=estrudesk01 \
-e discovery.seed_hosts=estrudesk01 \
-e bootstrap.memory_lock=true
-d elasticsearch:8.0.0

Trudesk​

Pull the latest release of Trudesk from Docker.

sudo docker pull polonel/trudesk:latest
docker run --name trudesk --link mongodb:mongodb \
    -v /data/trudesk/uploads:/usr/src/trudesk/public/uploads \
    -v /data/trudesk/plugins:/usr/src/trudesk/plugins \
    -v /data/trudesk/backups:/usr/src/trudesk/backups \
    -e NODE_ENV=production \
    -e TRUDESK_DOCKER=true \
    -e TD_MONGODB_SERVER=mongodb -e TD_MONGODB_DATABASE=trudesk \
    -e ELATICSEARCH_URI="http://elasticsearch:9200" \
    -p 8118:8118 \
    -d polonel/trudesk:latest
