ocelot.social | Deployment Configuration

There are a couple different ways we have tested to deploy an instance of ocelot.social, with Kubernetes and via Helm. In order to manage your own network, you have to install Kubectl, install Helm (optional, but the preferred way), and set up a Kubernetes cluster. Since there are many different options to host your cluster, we won't go into specifics here.

We have tested two different Kubernetes providers: Minikube and Digital Ocean.

Check out the specific documentation for your provider. After that, choose whether you want to go with the recommended deploy option Helm, or use Kubernetes to apply the configuration for ocelot.social.

Initialise Database For Production After Deployment

After the first deployment of the new network on your server, the database must be initialized to start your network. This involves setting up a default administrator with the following data:

• E-mail: admin@example.org
• Password: 1234

{% hint style="danger" %} TODO: When you are logged in for the first time, please change your (the admin's) e-mail to an existing one and change your password to a secure one !!! {% endhint %}

Run the following command in the Docker container of the or a backend:

{% tabs %} {% tab title="Kubernetes For Docker" %}

# with explicit pod backend name
$ kubectl -n ocelot-social exec -it <backend-name> yarn prod:migrate init

# or

# if you have only one backend grep it
$ kubectl -n ocelot-social exec -it $(kubectl -n ocelot-social get pods | grep backend | awk '{ print $1 }') yarn prod:migrate init

# or

# sh in your backend and do the command here
$ kubectl -n ocelot-social exec -it $(kubectl -n ocelot-social get pods | grep backend | awk '{ print $1 }') sh
backend: $ yarn prod:migrate init
backend: $ exit

{% endtab %} {% tab title="Docker-Compose Running Local" %}

# exec in backend
$ docker-compose exec backend yarn run db:migrate init

{% endtab %} {% tab title="Running Local" %}

# exec in folder backend/
$ yarn run db:migrate init

{% endtab %} {% endtabs %}
