# docker-adaptauthoring

[![Build Status](https://build.coopcloud.tech/api/badges/coop-cloud-chaos-patchs/docker-adaptauthoring/status.svg)](https://build.coopcloud.tech/coop-cloud-chaos-patchs/docker-adaptauthoring)

Docker configuration for the [Adapt Authoring tool](https://github.com/adaptlearning/adapt_authoring): create SCORM-compatible training.

Migrated from https://github.com/3-w-c/docker-adaptauthoring

## Getting started

Because Adapt requires a database to run, the easiest way to get started is to use `docker-compose` to set up Adapt and MongoDB automatically.

Fetch the example `docker-compose.yml`:

    wget https://github.com/3-w-c/docker-adaptauthoring/blob/master/docker-compose.yml

Edit the variables under `services.app.environment`, then push the button!

    docker-compose up

## Configuration

### Environment variables

You can configure Adapt's initial set-up using these variables:

- `DOMAIN` - hostname for the Adapt service
- `PORT` (default `5000`) - TCP port for the Adapt service
- `DB_HOST` - MongoDB server hostname
- `DB_USER` - MongoDB username
- `DB_NAME` - MongoDB database name
- `SESSION_SECRET` - HTTP session secret key (set to something random)
- `ADMIN_EMAIL` - email address for the default superuser account
- `ADMIN_PASSWORD` - password for the default superuser account
- `FROM_EMAIL` - `From:` email address for notifications

(If you edit these settings after set-up, you'll need to manually edit
`/adapt_authoring/conf/config.json` with the new values as well)

### Docker secrets

As well as environment variables, you can also load `SESSION_SECRET` and
`ADMIN_PASSWORD` from files, which is helpful if you want to keep secret data in
[Docker swarm mode secrets](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets).

Simply set `SESSION_SECRET_FILE` / `ADMIN_PASSWORD_FILE`.

## Clean Up

### To remove containers

```
docker-compose down
```

### To remove data (courses)

This will delete your hard work.

```
docker volume rm dockeradaptauthoring_adaptdb
docker volume rm dockeradaptauthoring_adaptdata
```

## Backup

Create local archives of both the `adapt_authoring` folder and database:

     docker run -it -w /backup -v dockeradaptauthoring_adaptdb:/adaptdb \
       -v $(pwd)/backup:/backup dockeradaptauthoring_authoring \
       bash -c "tar -czvf adaptdata_`date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S"`.tar.gz /adapt_authoring && tar -czvf adaptdb_`date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S"`.tar.gz /adaptdb"

## Deployment

### Docker Swarm

See [`coop-cloud/adapt_authoring`] for an example Docker "swarm mode"
configuration, including secrets, SSL reverse proxy, and continuous integration
tests of the stack deployment.

## Troubleshooting

 - If you run the installer script many times in quick succession, you might get
   rate-limited by Github (the script checks Github for the latest Adapt
   Authoring version, and to clone the Authoring Framework and plug-ins). Wait
   an hour, or use a VPN.
 - `node upgrade` doesn't work, because code is downloaded as a ZIP archive
    instead of using a `git clone`
