This is a simple image for hosting your own 5eTools instance. It is based on the Apache `httpd` image and uses components of the auto-updater script from the [5eTools wiki](https://wiki.tercept.net/en/5eTools/InstallGuide). This image is built from [this GitHub repository](https://github.com/Jafner/5etools-docker).

# Usage
Below we talk about how to install and configure the container.
2021-07-05 01:09:40 -07:00
## Default Configuration
2021-07-05 01:09:40 -07:00
You can quick-start this image by running:
2021-08-01 15:38:00 -07:00
2021-09-30 11:27:34 -07:00
```
mkdir -p ~/5etools-docker/htdocs && cd ~/5etools-docker
curl -o docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Jafner/5etools-docker/main/docker-compose.yml
docker-compose up -d && docker logs -f 5etools-docker
```
2021-08-01 15:38:00 -07:00
Then give the container a few minutes to come online (it takes a while to pull the Github repository) and it will be accessible at `localhost:8080`.
When you stop the container, it will automatically delete itself. The downloaded files will remain in the `~/5etools-docker/htdocs` directory, so you can always start the container back up by running `docker-compose up -d`.
2021-07-05 01:09:40 -07:00
## Volume Mapping
By default, I assume you want to keep downloaded files, even if the container dies. And you want the downloaded files to be located at `~/5etools-docker/htdocs`.
2021-07-05 01:09:40 -07:00
If you want the files to be located somewhere else on your system, change the left side of the volume mapping. For example, if I wanted to keep my files at `~/data/docker/5etools`, the volume mapping would be:
2021-07-05 01:09:40 -07:00
```
volumes:
- ~/data/docker/5etools:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs
```
Alternatively, you can have Docker or Compose manage your volume. (This makes adding homebrew practically impossible.)
Use a Compose-managed volume with:
```
...
volumes:
- 5etools-docker:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs
...
volumes:
5etools-docker:
```
Or have the Docker engine manage the volume (as opposed to Compose). First, create the volume with `docker volume create 5etools-docker`, then add the following to your `docker-compose.yml`:
```
...
volumes:
- 5etools-docker:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs
...
volumes:
5etools-docker:
external: true
```
## Environment Variables
The image uses environment variables to figure out how you want it to run.
By default, I assume you want to automatically download the latest files from the Github mirror. Use the environment variables in the `docker-compose.yml` file to configure things.
### IMG (defaults to FALSE)
Required unless OFFLINE_MODE=TRUE.
Expects one of "TRUE", "FALSE" Where:
> "TRUE" pulls from https://github.com/5etools-mirror-2/5etools-mirror-2.github.io.git and adds https://github.com/5etools-mirror-2/5etools-img as a submodule for image files.
> "FALSE" pulls from https://github.com/5etools-mirror-2/5etools-mirror-2.github.io.git without image files.
The get.5e.tools source has been down (redirecting to 5e.tools) during development. This method is not tested.
2021-07-05 01:09:40 -07:00
### OFFLINE_MODE
Optional. Expects "TRUE" to enable.
Setting this to true tells the server to run from the local files if available, or exits if there is no local version.
2021-07-05 01:11:54 -07:00
### PUID and PGID
During the image build process, we set the owner of the `htdocs` directory to `1000:1000` by default. If you need a different UID and GID to own the files, you can build the image from the source Dockerfile and pass the PUID and PGID variables as desired.

## Integrating a reverse proxy
2021-07-05 01:11:54 -07:00
Supporting integration of a reverse proxy is beyond the scope of this guide.
However, any instructions which work for the base `httpd` (Apache) image, should also work for this, as it is minimally different.

# Auto-loading homebrew
To use auto-loading homebrew, you will need to use a host directory mapping as described above.
2021-08-01 11:40:43 -07:00
1. Online the container and wait for the container to finish starting. You can monitor its progress with `docker logs -f 5etools-docker`.
2021-08-01 15:10:27 -07:00
2. Assuming you are using the mapping `~/5etools-docker/htdocs:/usr/local/apache2/htdocs` place your homebrew json files into the `~/5etools-docker/htdocs/homebrew/` folder, then add their filenames to the `~/5etools-docker/htdocs/homebrew/index.json` file.
2021-08-01 11:40:43 -07:00
For example, if your homebrew folder contains:
```
index.json
'Jafner; JafnerBrew Campaigns.json'
'Jafner; JafnerBrew Collection.json'
'Jafner; Legendary Tomes of Knowledge.json'
'KibblesTasty; Artificer (Revised).json'
```
Then your `index.json` should look like:
```json
{
"readme": [
"NOTE: This feature is designed for use in user-hosted copies of the site, and not for integrating \"official\" 5etools content.",
"The \"production\" version of the site (i.e., not the development ZIP) has this feature disabled. You can re-enable it by replacing `IS_DEPLOYED = \"X.Y.Z\";` in the file `js/utils.js`, with `IS_DEPLOYED = undefined;`",
"This file contains as an index for other homebrew files, which should be placed in the same directory.",
"For example, add \"My Homebrew.json\" to the \"toImport\" array below, and have a valid JSON homebrew file in this (\"homebrew/\") directory."
],
"toImport": [
"Jafner; JafnerBrew Collection.json",
"Jafner; JafnerBrew Campaigns.json",
"Jafner; Legendary Tomes of Knowledge.json",
"KibblesTasty; Artificer (Revised).json"
]
}
```
