c9 collaborative Docker container

this project aim to provide a collaborative instance runing in a docker container ready to deploy as a single container or in a composer file The image is based on official node:carbon-stretch on debian and compiled on build

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a fully functional container with an c9 editor ready to use in a project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Disclaimer

this container is intended only for internal and small scale use if you need a more robust and well supported web IDE infrastruture please refer to https://c9.io/ -

Prerequisites

docker

docker-compose (if needed)

build

docker build -t juanitomint/c9collab:latest .

Run and c9 editor in current directory

In order to edit a directory all you need to do is to mount a volume pointing to /workspace in the container, and give a port on the host to listen so for launch an editor in the current working directory and port 9191

docker run -it --rm \
-v $(pwd):/workspace \
-p 9191:80 \
juanitomint/c9collab:latest 

Customize user and password

The container use 2 environment variables to set user and password needed to login into C9 ide by default:

C9_USER='developer'

C9_PASSWD='developer'

If you don't set this environment variables they will be by default:

user: developer

passwd: developer

So for

user: johndoe

passwd: johnpassword

docker run -it --rm \
-v $(pwd):/workspace \
-e "C9_USER=johndoe" \
-e "C9_PASSWD=johnpassword" \
-p 9191:80 \
juanitomint/c9collab:latest 

Deployment

in orther to deploy this container into composer file set service like this:

c9:
    image: juanitomint/c9collab:latest
    # set your dependencies so it wont start until other services started
    depends_on: 
      - web
    #set environment (optional)
    environment:
     - c9_USER : "johndoe"
     - c9_PASSWD : "johpassword"
    
    #map ports to host (optional if you use reverse proxy or other method)
     ports:
       - "9191:80"
    #mount shared volumes for shared project and if needed ssh keys for git to work
    volumes:
      - www:/workspace
      - ssh/:/root/.ssh
