Very extensive, thanks!

Problem solved, for the record I have added all file on my GitHub: https://github.com/LM1LC3N7/Dockerfiles/blob/master/nodebb/README.md

@Doppy Forgot to mention you !

Unfortunately we cannot debug docker installs as that is a community contributed installation guide. Perhaps someone else here can help you out (e.g. @Ben-Lubar ?)

@flex said:

Do you think that it's possible to don't use yours and replace it by my reverse proxy ?

HI, If you meant that one use a niginx which is installed on a host instead of a dockerized nginx which is dedicated for NodeBB, then it's totally possible, yes

I just put some ideas and matters

One can remove a dockerized nginx easily by just a modifying(removing) of nginx part from docker-compose.yml. Really, that's just it. ( This is a full chain, but if one doesn't need/want a full chain then.. ) One can use a dockerized nginx as a prime web server instead a host installed web server and can serve subomains or what ever with other docker or directory Actually this doesn't happen yet, but nginx can serve static files for NodeBB efficiently and you know, nginx is extremely small. So I'd rather proxy from a host installed nginx to the nodebb dedicated nginx docker ( In this case one needs to change a line 80:80 with 8080:80 or <any port>:80 in docker-compose.yml )

But, if anybody wants to get an easier way and less steps, then your idea will be also a good option.

@alphagao link me whatever guide you're using. If you don't know what to do, use this guide:

Ubuntu (Recommended) - NodeBB Documentation

Yes I have already checked it. I have found a docker image created by @nopz, this one is up-to-date. But the official docker image in not! Maybe you (nodebb) should give access to a dockerfile to allow anyone to build a nodebb docker image. EDIT I found the dockerfile, and the problem about this outdated version here. It's outdated because the dockerfile build the image with the v0.5.x version :

FROM centos:centos7 MAINTAINER NodeBB Docker Team <docker-devs@nodebb.org> # install main packages: RUN yum -y update ; yum clean all RUN yum -y install epel-release tar ; yum clean all RUN yum -y install wget ; yum clean all RUN yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools" RUN yum -y install nodejs git ImageMagick npm RUN yum -y install openssl openssl-devel # clone nodebb and install it RUN cd /opt ; git clone -b v0.5.x https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB nodebb RUN cd /opt/nodebb ; npm install # Create a nodebb volume VOLUME /opt/nodebb # Define a working directory WORKDIR /opt/nodebb # Expose ports EXPOSE 80 EXPOSE 443 EXPOSE 4567 CMD [ "node", "app.js" ]

You should (NodeBB) update this dockerfile !

End of the EDIT

Now, with the nopz/nodebb image I just had a problem about plugin persistence. But the first installation is so much easier and automatic with just one docker.

Thanks for your answer by the way

@Absam-Sibsam you saved me bro, worked perfectly!

@Xiph Thank you so much for the reply!

We're not actually pulling images from Docker Hub, as the default image out there seems to just pull an 0.5 branch. We're actually building the image from source using the Dockerfile that is included.

The info you included will be super helpful in getting this going the way we want. We will not be posting these images publicly, for the exact reasons you mentioned above (i.e. secret).

I'll probably be back with more questions though.

Thanks a lot! It works
