# Docker Composition Configure environment variables and run Magistrala Docker Composition. \*Note\*\*: `docker-compose` uses `.env` file to set all environment variables. Ensure that you run the command from the same location as .env file. ## Installation Follow the [official documentation](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/). ## Usage Run the following commands from the project root directory. ```bash docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up ``` ```bash docker compose -f docker/addons//docker-compose.yml up ``` To pull docker images from a specific release you need to change the value of `MG_RELEASE_TAG` in `.env` before running these commands. ## Broker Configuration Magistrala supports configurable MQTT broker and Message broker, which also acts as an events store. Magistrala uses two types of brokers: 1. MQTT_BROKER: Handles MQTT communication between MQTT adapters and message broker. This can either be 'VerneMQ' or 'NATS'. 2. MESSAGE_BROKER: Manages message exchange between Magistrala core, optional, and external services. This can either be 'NATS' or 'RabbitMQ'. This is used to store messages for distributed processing. Events store: This is used by Magistrala services to store events for distributed processing. Magistrala uses a single service to be the message broker and events store. This can either be 'NATS' or 'RabbitMQ'. Redis can also be used as an events store, but it requires a message broker to be deployed along with it for message exchange. This is the same as MESSAGE_BROKER. This can either be 'NATS' or 'RabbitMQ' or 'Redis'. If Redis is used as an events store, then RabbitMQ or NATS is used as a message broker. The current deployment strategy for Magistrala in `docker/docker-compose.yml` is to use VerneMQ as a MQTT_BROKER and NATS as a MESSAGE_BROKER and EVENTS_STORE. Therefore, the following combinations are possible: - MQTT_BROKER: VerneMQ, MESSAGE_BROKER: NATS, EVENTS_STORE: NATS - MQTT_BROKER: VerneMQ, MESSAGE_BROKER: NATS, EVENTS_STORE: Redis - MQTT_BROKER: VerneMQ, MESSAGE_BROKER: RabbitMQ, EVENTS_STORE: RabbitMQ - MQTT_BROKER: VerneMQ, MESSAGE_BROKER: RabbitMQ, EVENTS_STORE: Redis - MQTT_BROKER: NATS, MESSAGE_BROKER: RabbitMQ, EVENTS_STORE: RabbitMQ - MQTT_BROKER: NATS, MESSAGE_BROKER: RabbitMQ, EVENTS_STORE: Redis - MQTT_BROKER: NATS, MESSAGE_BROKER: NATS, EVENTS_STORE: NATS - MQTT_BROKER: NATS, MESSAGE_BROKER: NATS, EVENTS_STORE: Redis For Message brokers other than NATS, you would need to build the docker images with RabbitMQ as the build tag and change the `docker/.env`. For example, to use RabbitMQ as a message broker: ```bash MG_MESSAGE_BROKER_TYPE=rabbitmq make dockers ``` ```env MG_MESSAGE_BROKER_TYPE=rabbitmq MG_MESSAGE_BROKER_URL=${MG_RABBITMQ_URL} ``` For Redis as an events store, you would need to run RabbitMQ or NATS as a message broker. For example, to use Redis as an events store with rabbitmq as a message broker: ```bash MG_ES_TYPE=redis MG_MESSAGE_BROKER_TYPE=rabbitmq make dockers ``` ```env MG_MESSAGE_BROKER_TYPE=rabbitmq MG_MESSAGE_BROKER_URL=${MG_RABBITMQ_URL} MG_ES_TYPE=redis MG_ES_URL=${MG_REDIS_URL} ``` For MQTT broker other than VerneMQ, you would need to change the `docker/.env`. For example, to use NATS as a MQTT broker: ```env MG_MQTT_BROKER_TYPE=nats MG_MQTT_BROKER_HEALTH_CHECK=${MG_NATS_HEALTH_CHECK} MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_MQTT_QOS=${MG_NATS_MQTT_QOS} MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_MQTT_TARGET_HOST=${MG_MQTT_BROKER_TYPE} MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_MQTT_TARGET_PORT=1883 MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_MQTT_TARGET_HEALTH_CHECK=${MG_MQTT_BROKER_HEALTH_CHECK} MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_WS_TARGET_HOST=${MG_MQTT_BROKER_TYPE} MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_WS_TARGET_PORT=8080 MG_MQTT_ADAPTER_WS_TARGET_PATH=${MG_NATS_WS_TARGET_PATH} ``` ### RabbitMQ configuration ```yaml services: rabbitmq: image: rabbitmq:3.12.12-management-alpine container_name: magistrala-rabbitmq restart: on-failure environment: RABBITMQ_ERLANG_COOKIE: ${MG_RABBITMQ_COOKIE} RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_USER: ${MG_RABBITMQ_USER} RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_PASS: ${MG_RABBITMQ_PASS} RABBITMQ_DEFAULT_VHOST: ${MG_RABBITMQ_VHOST} ports: - ${MG_RABBITMQ_PORT}:${MG_RABBITMQ_PORT} - ${MG_RABBITMQ_HTTP_PORT}:${MG_RABBITMQ_HTTP_PORT} networks: - magistrala-base-net ``` ### Redis configuration ```yaml services: redis: image: redis:7.2.4-alpine container_name: magistrala-es-redis restart: on-failure networks: - magistrala-base-net volumes: - magistrala-broker-volume:/data ``` ## Nginx Configuration Nginx is the entry point for all traffic to Magistrala. By using environment variables file at `docker/.env` you can modify the below given Nginx directive. `MG_NGINX_SERVER_NAME` environmental variable is used to configure nginx directive `server_name`. If environmental variable `MG_NGINX_SERVER_NAME` is empty then default value `localhost` will set to `server_name`. `MG_NGINX_SERVER_CERT` environmental variable is used to configure nginx directive `ssl_certificate`. If environmental variable `MG_NGINX_SERVER_CERT` is empty then by default server certificate in the path `docker/ssl/certs/magistrala-server.crt` will be assigned. `MG_NGINX_SERVER_KEY` environmental variable is used to configure nginx directive `ssl_certificate_key`. If environmental variable `MG_NGINX_SERVER_KEY` is empty then by default server certificate key in the path `docker/ssl/certs/magistrala-server.key` will be assigned. `MG_NGINX_SERVER_CLIENT_CA` environmental variable is used to configure nginx directive `ssl_client_certificate`. If environmental variable `MG_NGINX_SERVER_CLIENT_CA` is empty then by default certificate in the path `docker/ssl/certs/ca.crt` will be assigned. `MG_NGINX_SERVER_DHPARAM` environmental variable is used to configure nginx directive `ssl_dhparam`. If environmental variable `MG_NGINX_SERVER_DHPARAM` is empty then by default file in the path `docker/ssl/dhparam.pem` will be assigned.
