Docker Quick Start

Before you get off to such a quick start, go ahead and

  1. Create a fork from augur starting at https://github.com/chaoss/augur

  2. Clone that fork locally

  3. Checkout the appropriate branch to work on (see notes below):

git checkout dev

  1. Usually, we’ll have you checkout the dev branch.

  2. Make sure to install all the pre-requisites here: https://oss-augur.readthedocs.io/en/main/getting-started/installation.html#dependencies

Note

Quick Start:

If you want to start running docker against an external database right away:

  1. Follow the instructions to create a database, and database user (if you have just installed Postgresql locally, you may need to follow instructions to allow access to Postgresql from Docker on the next page. tl;dr, there are edits to the Postgresql pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf files):

CREATE DATABASE augur;
CREATE USER augur WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE augur TO augur;

  1. Install Docker and docker-compose. If you’re not familiar with Docker, their starting guide is a great resource.

  2. Create a file to store all relevant enviroment variables for running docker. Below is an example file. This file should be named .env`

AUGUR_GITHUB_API_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
AUGUR_GITHUB_USERNAME=usernameGithub
AUGUR_GITLAB_API_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
AUGUR_GITLAB_USERNAME=usernameGitlab
AUGUR_DB=yourDBString

  1. Execute the code from the base directory of the Augur repository:

sudo docker build -t augur-docker -f docker/backend/Dockerfile .
sudo docker compose up
