Building

Running the Image

Extra Configurations

Building

  • Install Docker recent version

  • Build images

    Build is done by the script:

    docker_build.sh

    The script will build multiple intermediary images. Subsequent builds will only build the differences

    To configure couchdb, create a file containing the necessary credentials.

    A template of this file can be found in: scripts/docker_config/default_secrets

    Example:

    COUCHDB_URL=http://couchdb:5984
COUCHDB_USER=admin
COUCHDB_PASSWORD=password

    To pass your file during build export a variable called SECRETS pointing to your file

  • Proxy during build stage

    Docker will detect if you configured proxy environment variables.

    It's suggested though to configure docker system wide ( require super user privileges )

    • systemd based If you are using a regular systemd based docker:

      • Create the following file http_proxy.conf on the directory /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/
      [Service]
Environment="HTTP_PROXY=<your_proxy>"
Environment="HTTPS_PROXY=<your_proxy>"
Environment="NO_PROXY=<your_proxy>"
      • Do a regular systemctl daemon-reload and systemctl restart docker

  • Volumes

    By default couchdb, postgres and sw360 have their own storage volumes:

    Postgres

    - postgres:/var/lib/postgresql/data/

    CouchDB

    - couchdb:/opt/couchdb/data

    sw360

    - etc:/etc/sw360
- webapps:/app/sw360/tomcat/webapps
- document_library:/app/sw360/data/document_library

    There is a local mounted as binded dir volume to add customizations

    - ./config:/app/sw360/config

    If you want to override all configs, create a docker env file and alter for your needs.

    Then just rebuild the project with -env env_file option

Networking

This composed image runs under a single default network, called sw360net

So any external docker image can connect to internal couchdb or postgresql through this network

Running the image

  • Run the resulting image:

    docker-compose up

  • With custom env file

    docker-compose --env-file <envfile> up

    You can add -d parameter at end of line to start in daemon mode and see the logs with the following command:

    docker logs -f sw360

Fossology

For docker based approach, is recommended use official Fossology docker image

This is the steps to quick perform this:

# Create Fossology database on internal postgres
docker exec -it sw360_postgresdb_1 createdb -U liferay -W fossology

# Start Fossology container connected to sw360 env
docker run \
    --network sw360net \
    -p 8081:80 \
    --name fossology \
    -e FOSSOLOGY_DB_HOST=postgresdb \
    -e FOSSOLOGY_DB_USER=liferay \
    -e FOSSOLOGY_DB_PASSWORD=liferay \
    -d fossology/fossology

This will pull/start the fossology container and made it available on the host machine at port 8081

Configure Fossology

  • On Fossology
    • Login on Fossology
    • Create an API token for the user intended to be used
  • On sw360
    • Go to fossology admin config
    • Add the host, will be something like: http(s)://<hostname>:8081/repo/api/v1/
    • Add the id of folder. The default id is 1 (Software Repository). You can get the ID of the folder you want from the folder URL in Fossology
    • Add your obtained Token from Fossology

Configurations

By default, docker image of sw360 runs without internal web server and is assigned to be on port 8080. This is configured on portal-ext.properties

Here's some extra configurations that can be useful to fix some details.

Customize portal-ext

The config file portal-ext.properties overrides a second file that can be created to add a custom configuration with all data related to your necessities.

This file is called portal-sw360.properties

To add your custom configs, create this file under config dir on project root like this ( or with your favorite editor):

cd <sw360_source>
mkdir config
cat "company.default.name=MYCOMPANY" > config/sw360-portal-ext.properties

Docker compose will treat config as a bind volume dir and will expose to application.

Make HTTPS default

Modify the following line on your custom portal-sw360.properties to https:

web.server.protocol=https

CSS layout looks wrong or using non standard ports

If you do not use an external web server with redirection ( see below ), you may find the main CSS theme scrambled ( not properly loaded ) or you are using a different port

This happens because current Liferay used version try to access the theme using only canonical hostname, without the port assigned, so leading to an invalid CSS url.

To fix, you will need to change portal-sw360.properties ( as described above ) with the following extra values:

# For different hostname redirection
web.server.host=<your ip/host of docker>
# For HTTP non standard 80 port
web.server.http.port=<your_http_port>
# For HTTPS non standard 443 port
web.server.https.port=<your_https_port>

This will tell liferay where is your real host instead of trying to guess the wrong host.

Nginx config for reverse proxy and X-Frame issues on on host machine ( not docker )

For nginx, assuming you are using default config for your sw360, this is a simple configuration for root web server under Ubuntu.

     location / {
         resolver 127.0.0.11 valid=30s;
         proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/;
         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
         proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
         proxy_redirect off;
         proxy_read_timeout 3600s;
         proxy_hide_header X-Frame-Options;
         add_header X-Frame-Options "ALLOWALL";
     }

WARNING - X-frame is enabled wide open for development purposes. If you intend to use the above config in production, remember to properly secure the web server.

Liferay Redirects

Liferay by default for security reasons do not allow redirect for unknown ips/domains, so is necessary to add your domain or ip to the redirect allowed lists in the Liferay Control Panel

As admin, go to Control Panel -> Instance Settings -> Content Data -> Pages

Decide to use:

IP based - List of ips you want to allow tro redirect

Domain based - List of domains you want to allow redirect
