Server.coop

Step 1

Get a fresh ubuntu instance up and running with root access (VM or otherwise) that is accessible to the outside world. If you have Xfinity with their provided modem, you are going to run into issues because they don't let you change your Public DNS IP, and so for some reason your website is only assessable externally. This won't be an issue once you have scaled to multiple distributed computers with different IPs, or are running your server externally. If you run into issues, try running it on a cheap virtual server provider and see if that works (of course, that will cost a little bit but there are ones that you can get for under 10 U.S. Dollars/Euros. SSH into your new server and make sure you are in the ubuntu home directory, then type sudo su to get into root mode. Also, make sure you have sub domains set up with your domain registrar for 'traeafik.yoururl.org', 'server.yoururl.org, next.yoururl.org, 'portainer.yoururl.org, and phpmyadmin.yoururl.org

Step 2

Install Drupal and other requirements by running ./installStuff.sh

Step 3

Run docker swarm init --advertise-addr ###.###.###.###, replacing ###.###.###.### with the public IP of your server (not 10.###.###.### or 192.168.###.###, if you are running your server locally, see caveat in Step 1 do a search for 'What is my IP') to setup swarm mode to make things distributed.

Step 4

Run: docker network create -d overlay --attachable traefik-public to get an external Docker network

Step 5

Run export NODE_ID=$(docker info -f '{{.Swarm.NodeID}}') to make the swarm IP an external variable.

Step 6

Create a Docker tag in this node, so that Traefik is always deployed to the same node and uses the same volume: docker node update --label-add traefik-public.traefik-public-certificates=true $NODE_ID

Step 7

Create a secrets folder below the servercoop git directory and create an .env file

Step 8

Create a file called .env with the following variables filled out:

MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=
MYSQL_DATABASE=
MYSQL_USER=
MYSQL_PASSWORD=
NODE_ID=
EMAIL=
DOMAIN=traefik.yoururl.org
DOMAINSERVER=server.yoururl.org
USERNAME=admin
#traefik password
PASSWORD=
#run 
#openssl passwd -apr1 
#[Your Password]
#and enter the results here, it will look something like this 
#$apr1$89eqM5Ro$CxaFELthUKV21DpI3UTQO.
HASHED_PASSWORD=
COOKIE_DOMAIN=portainer.yoururl.org
INSECURE_COOKIE=false
#an email address
WHITELIST=
LOG_LEVEL=warning
LOG_FORMAT=text
LIFETIME=2592000 # 30 days
PMA_ABSOLUTE_URI=https://phpmyadmin.yoururl.org/
PMA_HOST=db

Step 9

Inspect traefik.yml and edit the parts between the [ … ]

Step 10

Run docker stack deploy -c traefik.yml traefik

Step 11

Go to https://traefik.[Your URL].org and check it out
