customizin docker-compose.yml with few questions #460

Closed joseph-vidal-rosset closed 4 years ago

joseph-vidal-rosset commented 4 years ago

I am not very familiar with docker installation and I still need some help. Following your good documentation, I just succeeded to fill what concerns social medias in docker-compose.yml . Now I wonder about the best folder to put docker-compose.yml in order to run the command docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d . In /etc/docker/ ? In /var/html/vidal-rosset.net i.e. the folder of my website? Second and last question: I wonder also if I have to change the volumes:

Now I wonder about the best folder to put docker-compose.yml

This can be any place on your server, for instance /srv/remark42 or /opt/remark42. This is not /etc/docker. Note: you need full read-write permission for this folder and remark42 will write things into <your_folder>/var subdirectory.

I wonder also if I have to change the volumes: - ./var:/srv/var at the end of the docker-compose.yml file,

No, no need to change. This ./var declares relative path (to docker-compose.yml). I.e. if you start remark42 compose as cd /srv/remark42 && docker-compose up -d it will use your /srv/remark42/var to store all the info (comments, avatars, images and so on).

Thanks. I am impressed by your reactivity. My very last question is now about notification : do I need to get a telegram account to receive notifications? And if the reply is "no", what is the setup of notifications by email in docker-compose.yml ?

umputun commented 4 years ago

support for email notification is a work–in-progress (there are tickets about it as well as PR). As of now if you want to be notified you could use telegram

The jet lag explains the delay of my "Thanks". I am going to close this thread and I will search in the archives the post about email notification. I can make a suggestion that maybe can be useful to the developers of remark42. I will also write a detailed report of my installation (that I hope successful) that I plan to make today. Again, many thanks for your work and for your help.
