Sources, GitHub, GitLab and Mirroring and all that good stuff

Repositories on GitHub are now for issues only. I've set up my own installation of GitLab and moved all my repositories over to Git.Griefed.de. Make sure to check there first for the latest code before opening an issue on GitHub.

For questions, you can always join my Discord server and talk to me there.

docker-ICEcoder

Help wanted:

I need help figuring out which php7 packages or packages in general are good for ICEcoder. I suspect a lot of the currently included packages are not needed by ICEcoder and could be removed, but I do not know which ones. Help would be really appreciated.

ICEcoder is a browser based code editor, which provides a modern approach to building websites. By allowing you to code directly within the web browser, online or offline, it means you only need one program (your browser) to develop sites, plus can test on actual web servers. After development, you can also maintain the website easily, all of which make for speedy and smart development.

Creates a Container which runs icecoder's ICEcoder, with lsiobase/alpine as the base image, as seen on http://demo.icecoder.net/ICEcoder/.

The lsiobase/alpine image is a custom base image built with Alpine linux and S6 overlay. Using this image allows us to use the same user/group ids in the container as on the host, making file transfers much easier

Deployment

Tags	Description
latest	Using the latest tag will pull the latest image for linux/amd64,linux/arm/v7,linux/arm64.
develop	The latest image of, if existent, the in-dev version of this container. Use at your own risk!

Using GitHub Workflows, images for this container are multi-arch. Simply pulling :latest should retrieve the correct image for your architecture. Images are available for linux/amd64,linux/arm/v7,linux/arm64.

Pre-built images

Using docker-compose:

version: "2"
services:
  icecoder:
    image: griefed/icecoder:latest
    container_name: icecoder
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin # Timezone
      - PUID=1000 # User ID
      - PGID=1000 # Group ID
      - GITURL=https://github.com/icecoder/ICEcoder.git # GitHub Repository to clone during container creation
    volumes:
      - /host/path/to/plugins:/plugins # Contains all installed plugins.
      - /host/path/to/data:/data # Contains ICEcoder data like backups.
      - /host/path/to/config:/config # Contains config files and logs.
      - /host/path/to/code:/code # Contains GITURL repository.
    ports:
      - 8080:8080/tcp # WebIDE

Using CLI:

docker create \
  --name=icecoder \
  -e TZ=Europe/Berlin \
  -e PUID=1000 \
  -e PGID=1000 \
  -e GITURL=https://github.com/icecoder/ICEcoder.git \
  -v /host/path/to/plugins:/plugins \
  -v /host/path/to/data:/data \
  -v /host/path/to/config:/config \
  -v /host/path/to/code:/code \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  griefed/icecoder:latest

Configuration

Configuration	Explanation
Restart policy	"no", always, on-failure, unless-stopped
code volume	Contains GITURL repository.
config volume	Contains config files and logs.
data volume	Contains ICEcoder data like backups.
plugins volume	Contains all installed plugins.
TZ	Timezone
PUID	for UserID
PGID	for GroupID
ports	The port where the service will be available at.

User / Group Identifiers

When using volumes, permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. Linuxserver.io avoids this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID and group PGID.

Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.

In this instance PUID=1000 and PGID=1000, to find yours use id user as below:

  $ id username
    uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup)

Changing the file manager root directory

In some cases you may want to change the root directory / file manager root directory of your ICEcoder deployment. Changing it would lead to a better overview of your files and would prevent you from accidentally changing any file of the ICEcoder application. There may, of course, be other reasons for why you would want to change said directory. In order to change the file manager root directory, go to the settings menu of your ICEcoder instance and edit the file manager rootentry like this for example:

That directory should be either one of the directories specified in the deployment section, or a subfolder of these. The reason for that being that these directories have their permissions and ownership set everytime the container starts, ensuring file access between host and container. I recommend using the /codedirectory. It's specified in the volumes of the Dockerfile and setup during container creation.

However, said directory is not accessed by the config script which executes during container start, meaning it won't set file permissions for /code and the files inside, you need to manage these yourself. (Thanks to derekoharrow for the suggestion in #2)

Building the image yourself

Use the Dockerfile to build the image yourself, in case you want to make any changes to it

docker-compose.yml:

version: '3.6'
services:
  icecoder:
    build: ./docker-ICEcoder/
    container_name: icecoder
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin # Timezone
      - PUID=1000 # User ID
      - PGID=1000 # Group ID
      - GITURL=https://github.com/icecoder/ICEcoder.git # GitHub Repository to clone during container creation
    volumes:
      - /host/path/to/plugins:/plugins # Contains all installed plugins.
      - /host/path/to/data:/data # Contains ICEcoder data like backups.
      - /host/path/to/config:/config # Contains config files and logs.
      - /host/path/to/code:/code # Contains GITURL repository.
    ports:
      - 8080:8080/tcp # WebIDE

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/Griefed/docker-ICEcoder.git ./docker-ICEcoder
2. Prepare docker-compose.yml file as seen above
3. docker-compose up -d --build icecoder
4. Visit IP.ADDRESS.OF.HOST:8080
5. ???
6. Profit!
