⁠Docker Setup for GNUHealth Demoserver

This Docker Setup provides a quick and easy way to get a GNU Health⁠ demo server up and running with only a few steps. Furthermore this docker setup may be used as a base to create your own docker based environment for production use.

This build is based on the official docker images

• Debian base image⁠
• Postgres base image⁠

using packages from Debian Tryton Maintainers⁠ and providing the images

• tryton-server-gnuhealth⁠
• postgres-gnuhealth⁠

and using

• docker-compose⁠

for the definition of the application setup and spin up of the test environment.

The images are automatically built from GitHub⁠.

⁠Installation

⁠Prerequisites

You need a running docker server and curl for downloading some files. On a Debian based system this means running

sudo apt-get install docker.io curl

Add the user that will use docker (i.e. yourself) to the docker group

sudo useradd myuser docker

Note: You may have to relogin before the group settings will take effect.

Get docker-compose on a recent Debian system with

sudo apt-get install docker-compose

or install docker-compose refering to the installation page⁠ e.g.

curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.1.0/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

⁠Usage

Create a working directory

mkdir ~/gnuhealth
cd gnuhealth

Fetch the definition file

curl -o ./docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mbehrle/docker-gnuhealth-demo/master/docker-compose.yml

Run

docker-compose up

and get yourself a cup of coffee...

The first setup will take some time for

• downloading the images
• importing the GNU Health Demo database

Subsequent calls to docker-compose up will run much faster. Stop the servers with Ctrl+C.

As soon as the servers have started up you can connect with the Tryton client using the credentials as described in the GNU Health documentation⁠ with the only difference that you put in your own machine as the server (localhost, if you are running the client on the same machine)

Server: <your_machine>:8000
Database: health30
User name: admin
Password: gnusolidario

Note: The version of the Tryton client must match the version of the server (3.8.x). A suitable client can be installed from distribution packages of your distribution or from the Tryton download site⁠ for OS X or Windows binaries.

For Debian systems please refer to packages from debian.tryton.org⁠ for the procedures to install the correct version.

⁠Authors and Credits

This setup was made by MBSolutions⁠ in the hope, that it may be useful for the GNU Health users. Thanks to the GNU Health project⁠ for providing this free Health and Hospital Information System.

Parts of this setup were adopted from

• postgres⁠ by Docker Official Image Packaging for Postgres⁠.
