konilabs/davical-ldap repository overview

⁠docker-davical-ldap

Davical + Apache + Postgresql with LDAP auth support based on Debian Stretch

⁠Features

This Docker container is based on Debian Stretch.

• Apache 2 is used as webserver
• Postgresql stores the Davical database
• Php7 is installed with LDAP auth support
• Davical packages comes from backport because version available in stable repository has an LDAP auth bug
• Supervisord manages services and ensure that everything starts and runs fine.

⁠Startup

During container startup, docker-entrypoint.sh script check if davical database already exists. If it exists, it runs davical database script, otherwise it runs davical init script.

⁠Database backup

A cron script creates a backup of the davical database everyday at 3am. It rotates backup to keep 7 daily, 5 weekly and 12 monthly backups. Backups are stored in /var/lib/postgresql/backups

⁠Database restore

Container contains a database restore script. To restore a copy of the database, put the backup file in /var/lib/postgresql/restore/ and name it db.sql.gz

At next startup, current davical database will be replaced by provided database dump. When data has been restored, db.sql.gz is renamed db-restored.sql.gz

⁠Installation

This container requires two docker volumes or bind mounts :

• /config/ contains configuration files
• /var/lib/postgresql/ contains Postgresql data files, backups, and restore

Port 80 is exposed

By default davical administrator credentials are the following :

• user : admin
• password : 12345

This MUST be changed using Web interface !

⁠Changelog

• v1.1 : New version now supports named volumes or bind mounts
• v1.0 : First version
