Using the official image - VITCMUN/munverse GitHub Wiki

The docker image is located at https://hub.docker.com/r/vitcmun/munverse

How to use this image

This image should be used with a docker-compose script.

• Official docker-compose.yaml to use in production.
• Official docker-compose.dev.yaml to use in development.

It uses a MongoDB database. Additionally, the development config consists of mongo-express, a UI for the mongo server.

In the same directory as the compose script, there should be a media directory to hold profile pictures and logos for the event and council. The structure should be:

media/
├── profiles/
│   ├── user1.png
│   └── user2.png
├── event/
│   └── example_event_logo.png
├── council/
│   └── example_council_logo.png

For production, run using docker-compose up and visit http://localhost.

For development, run using docker-compose up -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.dev.yaml up and visit http://localhost for webapp and http://localhost:8081 for mongo-express.
