To deploy onesait Platform Community, we must consider the following pre-requirements:

If you prefer a videotutorial you can watch this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=5&v=ZcLdEhI5Lfg

Pre-requirements:

1- Have Docker, Community Edition installed

https://docs.docker.com/install/

2- Have Docker compose installed

https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

Once Docker is installed, for Windows or MacOS environments, we must increase the memory allocated to the Docker service. We recommend at least 8 GB of memory and 2 GB of swap.

3- Have Docker File Sharing configured propperly (only Windows)

Docker for windows needs to set pc user credentials to access file system for container volume mapping.
It can be setted on Settings>Reset Credentials.

Once the requirements are satisfied, it is possible to deploy the platform.

Deploy

Step 1: Download docker-compose's files to launch the platform's services

These files, in yml format, are in the platform's repository in GitHub. To do it, you need to clone the repository locally, then place yourself in the master branch.

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> git clone https://github.com/onesaitplatform/onesait-cloud-platform-community-deploy.git
> cd onesait-cloud-platform-community-deploy
> git fetch origin master
> git checkout master

Step 2: Launch the persistence services

Place yourself in the same directory as the docker-compose.yml, in charge of launching the database services, is.

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

cd onesait-cloud-platform-community-deploy/op_data

You can see several files in that directory:

/.env

Check that the keys have the following values:

keu	value
REPOSITORY	registry.hub.docker.com
PERSISTENCE_TAG	mariadb
MODULE_TAG	2.0.0-ce
MONGO_TAG	latest-noauth
QUASAR_TAG	14

/docker-compose.yml: if we want to launch the databases without persistence, then we run from a terminal the following command, from the same directory that the file is:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker-compose up -d

IMPORTANT: If the databases are launched ephemerally, when the services with docker-compose down are stopped, we will lose all the data.

/docker-compose.persistent.yml: if you want to persist the databases, then you must write in the .env file the directories of your machine where you want the data to be stored. There is no default assigned value. As an example, you can use:

key	example value
REALTIME_VOLUME	/Users/devopsuser/realtimedbdata
CONFIGDB_VOLUME	/Users/devopsuser/configdbdata

From the terminal, run the following command:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker-compose -f docker-compose.persistent.yml up -d

Once the databases have been launched, you can see the status of each with the following command:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker ps

You should see an output like this one:

If you want to see a database container log, you run:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker logs <container_name>
or
> docker logs -f <container_name> (-f equivale a un tail)

Step 3: Populate the databases with data

In that same directory (onesait-cloud-platform-community-deploy/op_data), there is another docker-compose file, in charge of launching the initial data load service.

Info
In case you are using the machine's hostname, you should replace 'localhost' in SERVER_NAME variable at docker-compose.yml by your machine's hostname.

As you did previously, you can run:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker-compose -f docker-compose.initdb.yml up

In this case you do not include the -d flag (detached mode) because the service stops on its own once its task is over.

It should be executed again to fill the realtimedb, changing in docker-compose.initdb.yml the variable LOADMONGODB=true.

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker-compose -f docker-compose.initdb.yml up

Step 4: Launch the platform's modules

Same as we did with the persistence services, we launch the platform's different modules with docker-compose, ordered by start-up and in the directory onesait-cloud-platform-community-deploy/op-modules:

Path	Module	DBs up required	Modules up required
/control-panel	Platform's web console.	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar
/webprojects	Platform web hosting	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel
/router	Routing module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar
/cacheserver	Cache server	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel
/iotbroker	Platform's IoT broker.	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver
/flowengine	Platform's Flow engine.	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver
/api-manager	API Manager Module.	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker
/oauth-server	Authentication server	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver,
/notebooks	Notebooks module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker
/dashboard-engine	Dashboard module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker
/rules-engine	Rules engine module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver
/dataflow	Dataflow module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker
/devicesimulator	Device simulator module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker
/digitaltwinbroker	Digital twin broker module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker
/monitoringui	Monitoring UI module	configdb, schedulerdb, realtimedb, quasar	controlpanel, router, cacheserver, iotbroker

Each file contains:

/.env file with the following environment variables:

key	value	description
REPOSITORY	registry.hub.docker.com	a registry containing the service's image.
SERVERNAME	localhost	host machine's hostname
MODULE_TAG	2.0.0-ce	service image tag.

docker-compose.yml file, containing the service's description, volume mapping, ports, subnets, etc.

Info
In case you are using the machine's hostname, you should replace 'localhost' in SERVER_NAME (or SERVERNAME in case of flowengine) variable at docker-compose.yml by your machine's hostname.

To launch each of these modules, you must, from the command line, reach the module's directory and execute the command:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker-compose up -d

For example in order to execute Control Panel go to op-modules/control-panel and execute >docker-compose up -d

Step 5: Launch the inverse proxy service (NGINX)

We go to the folder onesait-cloud-platform-community-deploy/op-modules/nginx-proxy in order to launch a container with the NGINX service. It has mapped a volume with the configuration file needed to re-direct incoming requests that reach the control panel (nginx.conf).

If you need to launch any other modules, you just have to docker-compose up -d in the module's folder and uncomment the line in nginx.conf.

You must edit nginx.conf and replace the string ${SERVER_NAME} with the Docker host machine's hostname. You can find it from the command line by executing the command "hostname" or localhost.

Code Block

theme	FadeToGrey
firstline	56
title	nginx.conf before set SERVER_NAME
linenumbers	true
collapse	true

	server {
			
    		listen 443 ssl;
    		# Replace ${SERVER_NAME} with name obtained from console command output: "hostname"
			server_name ${SERVER_NAME};

Code Block

theme	FadeToGrey
firstline	56
title	nginx.conf after set SERVER_NAME
linenumbers	true
collapse	true

	server {
			
    		listen 443 ssl;
    		# Replace ${SERVER_NAME} with name obtained from console command output: "hostname"
			server_name user-pc;

It is needed to generate ssl certificates using script generate-certificates.sh

Code Block

language	bash
title	generate-certificates.sh

sh generate-certificates.sh

It is needed to set up some variables inside the script.

Code Block

language	bash
title	generate-certificates.sh variables

# Set IP and COMMONNAME
export IP="172.22.11.203"
export COMMONNAME="localhost"
# Comment SO not used
SEP="//" # WINDOWS
#SEP="" # OTHERS

The ./tls folder will be generated, then you can install the certificates in the host. This folder will be mapped to the container.

Once edited, you launch the service as you have done previously with other services. From the directory /nginx-proxy, execute:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> docker-compose up -d

And you can access the control panel by writing the following URL in the web browser: https://<hostname>/controlpanel

You can access with these users/passwords:

administrator/Community2019!
developer/Community2019!
analytics/Community2019!

Example: Launching other module

To provide a complete example, we show how to launch dashboardengine module:

Commands to run necessary containers (from op_moules folder)

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

> # First launch controlpanel
> cd control-panel
> docker-compose up -d
> cd ..
> # First launch router and cacheservice
> cd cacheserver
> docker-compose up -d
> cd ..
> cd router
> docker-compose up -d
> cd ..
> # First launch iotbroker
> cd iotbroker
> docker-compose up -d
> cd ..
> # First launch dashbardengine
> cd dashboard-engine
> docker-compose up -d
> cd ..

Uncomment line in ./op_modules/nginx-proxy/nginx.conf for the modules up (you can copy - paste and replace {SERVER_NAME})

Then we rebuild the proxy module to reload changes:

Code Block

language	bash
theme	DJango
linenumbers	true

# from /op_modules
> cd nginx-proxy
> docker-compose down
> docker-compose up -d

Once done you can use dashboard module in controlpanel!
