Cryptpad Docker Image

• Configuration via .env file
• Ready for use with traffic
• Using github master for now, release 0.3.0 too old
• Creating customize folder
• Adding config.js to customize folder
• Persistance for datastore and customize folder

Run

Run from the cryptpad source directory:

docker build -t xwiki/cryptpad .
docker run --restart=always -d --name cryptpad -p 3000:3000 -v /var/cryptpad:/cryptpad/datastore xwiki/cryptpad

Or, using docker-compose

docker-compose up -d

Configuration

Set configurations Dockerfile or in .env (using docker-compose) file.

• VERSION=latest
• USE_SSL=false
• STORAGE='./storage/file'
• LOG_TO_STDOUT=true

The .env variables are read by docker-compose and forwarded to docker container. On runtime, in bin/container-start.sh the settings are written to the config.js file.

Persistance

The docker-compose file is preconfigured to persist folders

• cryptpad/datastore --> ./data/customize
• cryptpad/customize --> ./data/customize

In customize included find your configuration in config.js.

The data folder is ignored by git, so if you want to add your customizations to git versioning change the volume:

./customize:/cryptpad/customize:rw

SSL Proxy

The traefik proxy has builtin Let'sEncrypt for easy SSL setup. In the docker-compose file you can find preset lables for usage with traefik.
