K-Int docker containers for Arches dependencies.

Containers

  • Redis
  • Geoserver

  • varnish

Future containers to be added:

  • Nginx / Apache2
  • Celery workers / supervisor

  • CouchDB (removed in 7.0.0)

Configuration

Getting started

Copy the env_template file and rename it to .env. This will be the secret env file that should never be committed (it is in the .gitignore by default).

Each of the ports should be set to localhost, unless there is a requirement for external access. If this is the case, ensure the ports are not open to public in the firewall or via AWS security groups.

PostgreSQL

Postgres has the option to be tuned to the specs of the server. If this is not required, leave the default .env values. Uncomment the log_statement=all line for debug logging.

Elasticsearch

In production, elasticsearch should be run with xpack security as true, however, this requires SSL certificates. If xpack security is false, ensure the Arches ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS scheme is set to http and ELASTICSEARCH_CONNECTION_OPTIONS verify_certs is false. Enter the env elasticsearch user password into ELASTICSEARCH_CONNECTION_OPTIONS basic_auth. In future, allow settings_local.py to use .env information.

Troubleshooting

Elasticsearch containers

For running multiple ES nodes, the error max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144] may occur.
To fix do the following (from the source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51445846/elasticsearch-max-virtual-memory-areas-vm-max-map-count-65530-is-too-low-inc)

  • Open /etc/sysctl.conf as root
  • Set vm.max_map_count = 262144
  • Reboot or run sysctl --system as root
