Architecture - liquidinvestigations/docs GitHub Wiki

This guide describes the structure of the Liquid Investigations project. It assumes a working knowledge of the Unix shell, Git, Docker and the HashiStack.

Liquid Investigations is a bundle of applications, hosted together on a cluster, with a common authentication layer. Here are the main components:

• cluster: automates Nomad, Consul and Vault to spin up a cluster
• node: deploys the Liquid Investigations bundle on the cluster
• core: manages users and provides OAuth2 SSO for the apps
• authproxy: wraps each app, functions as an SSO client, connected to core
• Architecture:RocketChat: real-time chat, similar to IRC, Slack or Mattermost
• Architecture:Nextcloud: file sharing software
• Architecture:Hoover: search in collections of documents
  • Snoop: extract data from files
• DokuWiki: wiki for the users to organize their research and internal documentation
• Hypothesis: annotate documents in hoover, nextcloud and dokuwiki
• CodiMD: realtime collaborative Markdown editor
