horta-foundation Status Zero

⚠ Notice ⚠

This repository has been deprecated. The development of horta-hell packaging is now performed at the horta-hell repository itself.

Original description:

horta-foundation is a project for providing the default horta-hell environment ready for production.

It is a docker image for deployment of horta-hell, an XMPP bot.

In the future, the image will also provide horta-web, a web interface to some of horta's functions.

Prerequisites

The only prerequisite is docker itself.

Building the image

First, build the horta-hell according to its manual and copy it to horta-hell.jar in the current image directory. After that, issue the command

$ docker build -t=codingteam/horta-hell .

Data volumes

You should mount the volume containing horta.properties to the /data mountpoint in the container.

Configuring the horta

You should create and place the horta.properties inside the /data container directory. Please take a look at the horta documentation to know more about the configuration files. There is an example file bundled with the horta-hell.

Please use only UNIX line endings (plain \n) in the horta.properties!

Running the container

Here's an example script for running the container. Windows users may also be interested in Run-Container.ps1 script.

$ cd horta-foundation
$ cp -f /path/to/build/horta-hell-assembly.jar ./horta-hell.jar
$ docker build -t=codingteam/horta-hell .
$ docker stop horta-hell # in case it already exists
$ docker rm horta-hell
$ docker run -d --name horta-hell -v /path/to/local/horta/configuration/directory:/data codingteam/horta-hell

Configuring for Windows

Currently the recommended way of running the container on Windows is to deploy it through Docker for Windows.

It's recommended to execute Run-Container.ps1 script like this (please check the parameter section):

$HortaArtifact = 'some\path\target\scala-2.11\horta-hell-assembly.jar'
$VolumePath = 'c:/Users/UserName/Docker-Data/horta-hell'

& horta-foundation\Run-Container.ps1 $HortaArtifact $VolumePath

After that you can run this script and have all the deployment process automated.

Updating the packages

The recommended way of upgrading is to rebuild and recreate the whole container. Your data is stored on an external data volume, so it will be fully preserved.
