kuralabs/docker-akaunting:latestIf you need to set the container to the same time zone as your host machine you may use the following options:
--env TZ=America/New_York \
--volume /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
--volume /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \You may use the following website to find your time zone:
Then, open http://localhost:8080/ (or corresponding URL) in your browser
and finish the installation using the web UI.
You can find the parameters for the "Database Setup" step in your container logs:
docker logs akauntingA very common use case is to use a container behind a web server configured as a reverse proxy and handling the HTTPS connection.
To enable Akaunting to work behind a reverse proxy first configure the trusted proxies. From your host (where you mounted the Akaunting configuration files):
sudo nano /srv/akaunting/config/trustedproxy.phpIn many cases, and depending on your setup and firewall, the following might be sufficient:
/*
* Or, to trust all proxies that connect
* directly to your server, uncomment this:
*/
'proxies' => '*',Use the following configuration to setup the reverse proxy in Apache for Akaunting:
# Reverse proxy
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://0.0.0.0:8080/
ProxyPassReverse / http://0.0.0.0:8080/
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "https"
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Port "443"The following is just a guess and hasn't been tested, so if you use Nginx please confirm if the following configuration works as expected.
location / {
proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:8080/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port 443;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
}A common setup is to use a Gmail / GSuite account to send emails. To configure Akaunting edit mail configuration as follows:
sudo nano /srv/akaunting/config/mail.phpAnd change keys to:
'driver' => 'smtp',
'host' => 'smtp.gmail.com',
'port' => 587,
'from' => [
'address' => 'your.email@your-domain.com',
'name' => 'Your Company Name',
],
'encryption' => 'tls',
'username' => 'your.email@your-domain.com',
'password' => 'YOUR_SMTP_PASSWORD',Build me with:
docker build --tag kuralabs/docker-akaunting:latest .In development, run me with:
