How to install ODK Central on Synology NAS with Docker

[dkonan]

Hi @yanokwa,
Hi @mathieubossaert,
Hi @shadoworker5

Many thanks for your guidance.
After several attempts, failures and reading posts, I was able to install ODK Central on my Synology NAS with Docker.

The key steps to follow:

Creation of directories in the central folder
root@xxx: / central # mkdir -p ~/central/files/dkim/config
root @xxx: / central # mkdir -p ~/central/files/dkim/rsa.private

Creation of directory in at the root
root@xxx: / central # mkdir -p ~/data/transfer

Changing ports in the docker-compose.yml file

I followed the @jary's guidelines below:

@jary

nginx:
    container_name: nginx
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: nginx.dockerfile
    depends_on:
      - service
    environment:
      - SSL_TYPE=${SSL_TYPE}
      - DOMAIN=${DOMAIN}
      - CERTBOT_EMAIL=${SYSADMIN_EMAIL}
    ports:
      - "4480:80"   # on the left goes the alternative port number, on right the real port 
      - "4443:443"  # and the same applies for https  
    healthcheck:
      test: [ "CMD-SHELL", "nc -z localhost 443 || exit 1" ]

Without first modifying the .env file (nano .env)

Then follow the other steps (by positioning yourself in the central directory:

1. docker-compose build
2. docker-compose up --no - start
3. docker-compose up -d
4. docker-compose ps # To make sure everything is working fine like below

5. Create email and password

Thanks everyone.
I will do a tutorial in French with @shadoworker5 for French speakers.
We think it will be a good opportunity for them
