I am just setting up a Bluemix container for EtherCis - any suggestions for minimum size and other settings?

7 years ago hi Ian - for demo/dev purposes the "Micro" container should be OK - 16GB of storage and 256M RAM -- I've just started one up for testing with Code4Health - fewer mods needed than originally detailed above - Alessandro has made fixes to the Dockerfiles to eliminated some of the errors that showed up
Basic instructions to deploy a running demo instance of EtherCIS in IBM Bluemix
( comments/corrections on Git, or to ross.cruickshank@uk.ibm.com, please)
Prerequisites:
create Bluemix account - https://new-console.eu-gb.bluemix.net/
from Bluemix console, pick a name and create your IBM Containers repository namespace - {your-repository-namespace}
Install Chrome browser
install Chrome Postman add-in -- https://www.getpostman.com/
save https://github.com/freshehr/postman-ehrscape/blob/master/NHS%2520Code4Health%2520Ehrscape%2520Master.json.postman_collection to "ehr-postman.json"
import ehr-postman.json into Postman
Install Cloud Foundry commandline tool -- use appropriate binary from https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cli
Install Docker commandline tools -- for Windows, there does not need to be a local docker runtime - commands will be redirected to Bluemix anyway
{https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/windows/#/docker-for-windows}
Install IBM Containers plugin for Cloud Foundry --
https://new-console.ng.bluemix.net/docs/containers/container_cli_cfic.html
cf install-plugin https://static-ice.ng.bluemix.net/ibm-containers-windows_x64.exe
launch GIT cmd window
cf ic init
save response and set environment for docker
windows
set DOCKER_HOST=tcp://containers-api.eu-gb.bluemix.net:8443 set DOCKER_CERT_PATH=C:\Users\IBM_ADMIN.ice\certs\containers-a.... set DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
linux
export DOCKER_HOST=tcp://containers-api.eu-gb.bluemix.net:8443 export DOCKER_CERT_PATH=/root/.ice/certs/containers-a... export DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=1
replace BMXREG with {your-repository-namespace}
git clone https://github.com/alessfg/docker-ethercis
cd docker-ethercis
edit application/Dockerfile ( "<" == remove, ">" == add )
< FROM java:8-jre
cf ic cpi java:8-jre registry.eu-gb.bluemix.net/{BMXREG}/java:8-jre
cf ic images
cf ic build -t registry.eu-gb.bluemix.net/{BMXREG}/ethercis-app ./application/Dockerfile
this may take a while over broadband -- ~250MB upload
cf ic images
edit postgres/Dockerfile ( "<" == remove, ">" == add )
< FROM postgres:9.4
cf ic cpi postgres:9.4 registry.eu-gb.bluemix.net/{BMXREG}/postgres:9.4
cf ic images
cf ic build -t registry.eu-gb.bluemix.net/{BMXREG}/ethercis-db ./postgres/Dockerfile
cf ic images
edit docker-compose.yml ( "<" == remove, ">" == add )
add links subsection within app: section
< image: ethercis-app
< image: ethercis-db
docker-compose --verbose up -d
cf ic ps --all
optional - check for ESTABLISHED connection to postgres server
cf ic exec -ti dockerethercis_app_1 bash apt-get install net-tools netstat -an | grep 5432 apt-get remove net-tools exit
cf ic ip list

if allocated, and unassigned:
Should now be ale to connect to ethercis API on port 8080
check ./application/ethercis-1.1.0/conf/security/authenticate.ini for username/password pairs
Launch Chrome, and select Postman from the Chrome Apps
replace any hosts ("https://ehrscape.code-4-health.org/") in GET/POST/etc with "http://{your-app-server-ip}:8080/"
set up a session first - POST Create Ehrscape Session -- capture returned session-id for adding into subsequent calls
POST http://{your-app-server-ip}:8080/rest/v1/session?username=lonestarr&password=vespa ((retain response header Ehr-Session for subsequent API calls)) GET http://{your-app-server-ip}/rest/v1/template
