Edna deployment

The docker-compose configuration file declares how to deploy Edna using images from GitHub Container Registry:

You can use docker-compose to run all 3 images (postgres, backend and frontend) or any individual image. For example:

  • docker-compose up postgres to run postgres in the foreground.
  • docker-compose up --no-start to create all services without running them.
  • docker-compose start to run all services in the background.

If you run all 3 images (by not passing any image or passing frontend), you can open 127.0.0.1:8080 in your browser and use Edna.

By default docker-compose will pull Edna images from GitHub Container Registry. However, if you import an image manually, it will be used instead. You can use docker-compose pull to update all images.

Note: we use .env with default options, if you want to change it - create a new file (e. g. .env.local) and run docker-compose --env-file=.env.local start.

Configuration

edna-server supports 3 ways of configuration: YAML configuration file, env variables and command line options. Here we use the first two:

  • configuration file is mounted to /config.yaml and read by edna-server inside the image.
  • .env file defines a number of env variables propagated to the backend and other images:
    • POSTGRES_* options affect both postgres and backend containers and should be self-descripting. backend uses them to construct a connection string to connect to the DB.
    • EDNA_* options match their counterparts from the configuration file.

These are the most significant configuration options you may want to change:

  • EDNA_API_LISTEN_ADDR is the network address where the backend server will be bound.
  • EDNA_API_SERVE_DOCS specifies whether Swagger UI will be accessible at /docs.
  • EDNA_DB_INITIALISATION_MODE can be set to enable (to run the initialisation script), enable-with-drop (to drop the whole DB and run the initialisation script) or omitted.
  • EDNA_LOGGING can be set to dev for the most verbose logging, prod for non-verbose loggig and nothing to disable logging.
  • EDNA_MDE_HOST specifies the prefix used to construct MDe links for compounds (compound number is appended to the value of this option after /).
