Setup Wizard: Provide an easy way to install ocis

[tbsbdr]

Description

User Stories

• As an admin who installs ocis for the first time, I want a base installation up and running online without the need to read the docs.

Value

• Increase adoption rate
• Ease of use
• Runs in the usual hosted VM's (Hetzner.cloud, Scalawag, Digitalocean…)
• Has basic security enabled
• Instant gratification

Proposal

On first installation, the admin gets asked for essential settings

1. Which version do you want to download? [ • ] Stable 4.0.5 (default) [    ] Latest Daily

2. Create Linux user: What should the Linux username be for starting Infinite Scale? Leave blank to skip if you don't have root privileges. > ocis

3. Do you want to autostart Infinite Scale? If you don't have root privileges select "no". [ • ] Yes (default) [    ] No

4. Do you want to configure Infinite Scale with certificate checking disabled? This is not recommended for public instances! [    ] Yes [ • ] No (default)

5. Please enter the URL where users should access Infinite Scale Example: https://ocis.example.com > https://localhost:9200

6. Should demo users be created? [    ] Yes [ • ] No (default)

7. Should nginx be installed as a reverseproxy? If you don't have root privileges select "no". [ • ] Yes (default) [    ] No

8. To be defined - what else is needed?

Open https://cloud.tbsbdr.com with your browser and login with one of these users:

 user           :   admin
 password       :   iQ5.Q$QePDaEvsHXXxf^db05ErPpBlGp

 user           :   einstein
 password       :   relativity

 user           :   marie
 password       :   radioactivty

Implementation detail:

• The Setup Wizard could be (A) an extra app or (B) baked into the ocis binary
• See also @dragotin 's quickstart script: https://owncloud.com/runocis.sh
• System assumptions:
  • Ubuntu LTS
  • no need for external IDM (local users)
  • local storage
• Cherry on top: Terminal eye candy like Bubble Tea

7. Should nginx be installed as a reverseproxy? If you don't have root privileges select "no". [ • ] Yes (default) [    ] No

Why nginx, not Traefik?

8. To be defined - what else is needed?

1. Auto-SSL, Certbot…
2. Maybe prompt for storage path?
3. Logging, log rotation?

How do we make it possible to survive a reboot? I.e. service integration... On Ubernauten, I had to fiddle with Supervisord. I guess a Systemd script would be a requirement, wouldn't it? https://owncloud.dev/ocis/deployment/ubernauten/

Second, will data be overwritten in the example above during an update? Shouldn't we add an explanation and config for separate data and config directory? I guess that's the "storage path" option mentioned in mstingl's comment?

Docker (or free equivalents) care for restarting. And yes, data is to be separated from configs.

This is the script I use for demos https://github.com/nicholas-wilson-au/ownCloud-Infinite-Scale-Demo-Containers-CKC

It requires a wildcarded domain (from cloudflare) and an email.
