dovecot ident #98

Closed chongma closed 4 years ago

chongma commented 4 years ago

Hi I am planning to migrate to docker container from manual installation.

The manual installation has the dovecot_ident plugin installed to ensure that the user's ip address is logged in the dovecot logs. This seems like a fairly important feature to me as otherwise you have no idea where your users are connecting from.

Is there a chance this plugin could be included as default? otherwise could you let me know the best way to include in my image?

I was also using the markasjunk2 plugin instead of markasjunk as it had some better features. but do you recommend moving back to markasjunk which is included by default?

There's a related issue #97 which asks for simplified integration of 3rd party plugins. For the time being, creating a Custom Docker Image might be a way to go.

When creating a custom docker image it says [InvalidArgumentException] Could not find a matching version of package corbosman/dovecot_ident. Check the package spelling, your version constraint and that the package is available in a stability which matches your minimum-stability (stable).

should roundcube log the user's ip address in dovecot by default without need for an extra plugin? (maybe it does but i am not aware)

@chongma It seems like that plugin is not registered to the Roundcube plugins repository or packagist.org. You need to pull it from Github or a fork of it and copy it into your image via your Dockerfile.

i have done 

FROM roundcube/roundcubemail:latest
COPY ./dovecot_ident-master/ /var/www/html/plugins/dovecot_ident/

but the directory dovecot_ident is never created. also the logs show

WARNING: /var/www/html/config/config.inc.php already exists.
ROUNDCUBEMAIL_* environment variables have been ignored.
Generating locales (this might take a while)...
  en_US.UTF-8... done
  1. the config seems to be created correctly so this message seems strange
  2. i need the locale en_GB. i tried installing it manually but it is overridden by en_US

is there some restriction on copying a directory? do i need to change user?

If you read the Dockerfile of this project you'll find out that the target directory should be /usr/src/roundcubemail and not /var/www/html.

See https://git.rthoni.com/robin.thoni/docker-roundcube-server for an example of a customize Roundcube Docker image.
