Deployment

The recommended way to run Foodsoft in production is using docker. Alternative options are discussed in the wiki. If you have any questions, please have a look at the forum.

Docker

This section is a work in progress.

Build

You can use the official production docker image. If you want to build the image yourself instead, run:

docker build --tag foodsoft:latest --rm .

Run (basic)

You'll need to set at least the following environment variables:

  • SECRET_KEY_BASE - random string of 30+ characters, try rake secret
  • DATABASE_URL - pointing to your MySQL installation (mysql2://user:pass@mysql.host/foodsoftdb?encoding=utf8)
  • REDIS_URL - pointing to your Redis instance (redis://redis.host:6379)

You'll also need to supply the Foodsoft configuration file, for example by mounting it as a volume. Copy config/app_config.yml.SAMPLE to config/app_config.yml and customize the settings.

Then run the webserver, exposing port 3000 on the current host:

docker run --name foodsoft_web -p 3000 \
  -e SECRET_KEY_BASE -e DATABASE_URL -e REDIS_URL -e RAILS_FORCE_SSL=false \
  -v `pwd`/config/app_config.yml:/usr/src/app/config/app_config.yml:ro \
  foodsoft:latest

This should get you started. But first you'll need to populate the database:

docker run --name foodsoft_setup --rm \
  -e SECRET_KEY_BASE -e DATABASE_URL -e REDIS_URL \
  -v `pwd`/config/app_config.yml:/usr/src/app/config/app_config.yml:ro \
  foodsoft:latest  bundle exec rake db:setup

To run the worker (recommended!), supply a different command (see Procfile for other types):

docker run --name foodsoft_worker \
  -e SECRET_KEY_BASE -e DATABASE_URL -e REDIS_URL \
  -v `pwd`/config/app_config.yml:/usr/src/app/config/app_config.yml:ro \
  foodsoft:latest  ./proc-start worker

To also run the cronjobs, start the previous command but substituting worker with cron. That should give you the ingredients for a production-setup. With the help of a front-end webserver doing ssl, of course.

Run (docker-compose)

In practice, you'd probably want to use docker-compose. If you know Docker well enough, you'll have no problem to set this up. For inspiration, look at the foodcoops.net production setup.
