Docker example for custom content path

jgsuess commented 2 months ago

I need to override the default branding in a K8S deploy of HAPI in order to give some legal heads up about not storing real data on the server. So this is actually quite important.

I cannot get this to work, probably because I do not know where the mount for the custom directory needs to be placed in the container.

The application.yaml says about hapi.fhir.custom_content_path:

    ### Folder with custom content MUST be named custom. If omitted then default content applies
    #custom_content_path: ./custom

Hence, I have added an environment variable to signal that the facility is active, copied the custom directory from the starter project and mounted it as shown below. I have tried various mount locations, including absolute paths, and none of them seem to work.

Could you please give an example of how to make this call and maybe even add it to the documentation?

docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 -e hapi.fhir.default_encoding=xml -e hapi.fhir.custom_content_path=./custom hapiproject/hapi:latest -v $(pwd)/custom:/app/custom &

Yes, after some training I am writing up a summary on how to customize it so others will have an easier time. My goal is to automate a container build, but I am currently stuck with this issue :( https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko/issues/1984
