TeamMapper

Mindmapping made simple: Host and create your own mindmaps. Share your mindmap sessions with your team and collaborate on mindmaps.

TeamMapper is based on mindmapp (https://github.com/cedoor/mindmapp , discontinued). In contrast to mindmapp, TeamMapper features shared mindmapping sessions for your team based on websockets. Try it: TeamMapper.org

Features:

Creation: Host and create your own mindmaps
Customization: Add images, pictograms*, colors, font properties and links to nodes
Collaboration: Share your mindmap with friends and collegues, using either a view-only or modification invite!

Getting started

Quick Start (without building the image)

Prepared docker image: docker pull ghcr.io/b310-digital/teammapper:latest

Docker compose

Attention: Add the missing password for postgres inside app_prod and postgres_prod!

docker compose up -d and visit localhost:80

version: "3.8"

services:
  app_prod:
    image: ghcr.io/b310-digital/teammapper:latest
    environment:
      MODE: PROD
      BINDING: "0.0.0.0"
      POSTGRES_DATABASE: teammapper-db
      POSTGRES_HOST: postgres_prod
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD:
      POSTGRES_PORT: 5432
      POSTGRES_SSL: false
      POSTGRES_SSL_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED: false
      POSTGRES_USER: teammapper-user
      POSTGRES_QUERY_TIMEOUT: 100000
      POSTGRES_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT: 100000
      DELETE_AFTER_DAYS: 30
    ports:
      - 80:3000
    depends_on:
      - postgres_prod

  postgres_prod:
    image: postgres:12-alpine
    # Pass config parameters to the postgres server.
    # Find more information below when you need to generate the ssl-relevant file your self
    # command: -c ssl=on -c ssl_cert_file=/var/lib/postgresql/server.crt -c ssl_key_file=/var/lib/postgresql/server.key
    environment:
      PGDATA: /var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata
      POSTGRES_DB: teammapper-db
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD:
      POSTGRES_PORT: 5432
      POSTGRES_USER: teammapper-user
    volumes:
      # To setup an ssl-enabled postgres server locally, you need to generate a self-signed ssl certificate.
      # See README.md for more information.
      # Mount the ssl_cert_file and ssl_key_file into the docker container.
      - ./ca/server.crt:/var/lib/postgresql/server.crt
      - ./ca/server.key:/var/lib/postgresql/server.key
      - postgres_prod_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata

volumes:
  postgres_prod_data:

Development

Start up app necessary services

docker-compose up -d --build --force-recreate

Start frontend and backend at once

docker-compose exec app npm --prefix teammapper-backend run dev

or start frontend and backend separately

# Open two terminal sessions on your host machine

# In first terminal session
docker-compose exec app npm --prefix teammapper-backend start

# In second terminal session
docker-compose exec app npm --prefix teammapper-frontend start

Visit the frontend in http://localhost:4200

Test

Create a test database

docker-compose exec postgres createdb -e -U teammapper-user -W teammapper-backend-test

Execute the tests

docker-compose exec app npm -prefix teammapper-backend run test:e2e

Production

Duplicate and rename .env.default
```
cp .env.default .env.prod
```
Adjust all configs in .env.prod, e.g. database settings, ports, enable ssl env vars if necessary

Start everything at once (including a forced build):

docker-compose --file docker-compose-prod.yml --env-file .env.prod up -d --build --force-recreate

Go to http://localhost:3011 (if default port is used in .env.prod) to open up teammapper. Happy mapping!
Optional commands:

If you want to make sure to include the most recent updates, run first:
```
docker-compose --file docker-compose-prod.yml --env-file .env.prod build --no-cache
```
then:
```
docker-compose --file docker-compose-prod.yml --env-file .env.prod up -d --force-recreate
```
If you want to remove old data, including cached node packages and stored databases (DANGER!):
```
docker-compose --file docker-compose-prod.yml --env-file .env.prod down -v
```
If you want to run prod migrations (again):
```
docker-compose exec app_prod npm -prefix teammapper-backend run prod:typeorm:migrate
```
Postgres and SSL

If needed, you can make the connection to Postgres more secure by using a SSL connection.

Generate self-signed ssl sertificate for the postgres server on the host machine; the generated files are mounted into the docker container

mkdir -p ./ca
openssl req -new -text -passout pass:abcd -subj /CN=localhost -out ./ca/server.req -keyout ./ca/privkey.pem
openssl rsa -in ./ca/privkey.pem -passin pass:abcd -out ./ca/server.key
openssl req -x509 -in ./ca/server.req -text -key ./ca/server.key -out ./ca/server.crt
chmod 600 ./ca/server.key
test $(uname -s) = Linux && chown 70 ./ca/server.key

And uncomment the line:

 # command: -c ssl=on -c ssl_cert_file=/var/lib/postgresql/server.crt -c ssl_key_file=/var/lib/postgresql/server.key

within the docker-compose-prod file.

Running jobs

Trigger delete job (also executed daily with cron task scheduler):

docker-compose --file docker-compose-prod.yml --env-file .env.prod exec app_prod npm --prefix teammapper-backend run prod:data:maps:cleanup

Running further queries

Example of running sql via typeorm:

docker-compose --file docker-compose-prod.yml --env-file .env.prod exec app_prod npx --prefix teammapper-backend typeorm query "select * from mmp_node" --dataSource ./teammapper-backend/dist/data-source.js

Frontend feature flags

See file /teammapper-frontend/src/envrionments/environment.prod.ts to configure feature flags:

featureFlagPictograms: Disables/Enables the pictogram feature (default: enabled). Note: You have to set this flag before build time!

Further details

Once this docker volume is initialized after the first docker-compose up, the database-related variables in .env.prod will not have any effect; please have this in mind => you will then need to setup your database manually
