Guide to using Archivy with Docker

This document contains enough information to help you get started with using Archivy as a container, in this case, with Docker(although you can use any other container runtime).

This document will cover the following:

NOTE: Parts of the document may be incomplete as it is a work in progress. In time, more information will be added to each section/topic. If some part of the documentation is ambiguous, feel free to ask questions or make suggestions on the Issues page of the project. If necessary, additional revisions to the documentation can be made based on user feedback.

Prerequisites

Docker.

You can check if Docker is installed by running

复制代码

$ docker --version
Docker version 19.03.12, build 48a66213fe

If you don't have Docker installed, take a look at the official installation guide for your device.

Docker-compose.

You can check if Docker-compose is installed by running

复制代码

$ docker-compose --version
docker-compose version 1.12.0, build unknown

If you don't have Docker-compose installed, take a look at the official installation guide for your device.

Setup

Docker-Compose

Download docker-compose.yml or docker-compose-light.yml into the folder you want to use for Archivy (something like ~/docker/archivy). Edit the compose file as needed for your network (host, port...). The default compose file (docker-compose.yml) is setup with Elasticsearch whereas the other one is more lightweight, using ripgrep for search. See here for more info on this.
In the folder from which you will start docker-compose, create a directory for persistent storage of your notes: mkdir ./archivy_data.
(optional): Archivy has many config options that allow you to finetune its behavior. If you want to define your own configuration, instead of using the default ones we wrote for use with Docker, create an archivy_config directory in the same directory as archivy_data. We recommend you at least build off the defaults.

Note: If your user ID is anything other than 1000 (you can check with the id command), you will need to change the owner of these directories to the 1000 UID and 1000 GID. Example: chown -R 1000:1000 ./archivy_data.

Start the docker-compose stack with: docker-compose up -d or docker-compose up -d -f docker-compose-lite.yml for the lightweight option. If you're using your custom configuration, add -f docker-compose.custom-config.yml as an option to the preceding command.

Application Setup

You should now be able to access your Archivy installation at http://<your-docker-host>:5000 where is the IP of the machine running your Docker environment.

However, the base installation has no users, so you will be unable to log in.

To create a new admin, run:

docker exec -it archivy archivy create-admin --password <your-password> <your-username>

docker exec -it archivy tells Docker to execute a command on the archivy container with an interactive pseudo-TTY. Read more here.
archivy create-admin --password <your-password> <your-username> is the command run by docker which creates a new admin account with the password and username provided.

Congratulations! You can now log into your new Archivy instance (complete with search and persistent data) with the credentials you created above. Happy archiving!

Installing Plugins

To install plugins into your Dockerized Archivy instance, you can simply run pip inside the container. For example:

docker exec archivy pip install archivy_git to install the archivy-git plugin.

NOTE : Plugins will persist as long as the container's system volume does. If you turn off your Archivy instance docker-compose down, you will destroy the container's system volume. Turning off your Archivy instance with docker container stop archivy will not cause this issue.

Note: Some plugins will require dependencies installed into the container (e.g. archivy-hn). In such cases, follow the Docker installation instructions provided by the plugin maintainer. If none exist, open an issue.
