# writefreely-docker # WriteFreely Docker Build
[![Source](https://img.shields.io/badge/source-git-brightgreen?style=flat-square)](https://git.madhouse-project.org/algernon/writefreely-docker) This project builds a Docker image for [WriteFreely](https://github.com/writefreely/writefreely), a minimalist, privacy-focused, and federated blogging platform. The image is uses on Alpine Linux.
This is a [Docker][docker] image for [WriteFreely][writefreely], set up in a way
that makes it easier to deploy it in production, including the initial setup step.

[writefreely]: https://github.com/writeas/writefreely
## Overview
The image is set up to use SQLite for the database, it does not support MySQL
out of the box - but you can always provide your own `config.ini`. The config
file, the database, and the generated keys are all stored on the single volume
the image uses, mounted on `/data`.
The primary purpose of the image is to provide a single-step setup and upgrade
experience, where the initial setup and any upgrades are handled by the image
itself. As such, the image will create a default `config.ini` unless one already
exists, with reasonable defaults. It will also run database migrations, and save
a backup before doing so (which it will delete, if no migrations were
necessary).

contains a `config.ini`. Settings can be tweaked via environment variables, of
which you can find a list below. Do note that these environment variables are
*only* used for the initial setup as of this writing! If a configuration file
already exists, the environment variables will be blissfully ignored.
### Environment variables ### Environment variables
- `WRITEFREELY_BIND_HOST` and `WRITEFREELY_BIND_PORT` determine the host and port WriteFreely will bind to. Defaults to `0.0.0.0` and `8080`, respectively. The following variables will be used to construct the `config.ini` on first start. After it has been configured, you can edit it on the volume.
- `WRITEFREELY_SITE_NAME` is the site title one wants. Defaults to "A Writefreely blog".
- `WRITEFREELY_SINGLE_USER`, `WRITEFREELY_OPEN_REGISTRATION`,
`WRITEFREELY_MIN_USERNAME_LEN`, `WRITEFREELY_MAX_BLOG`,
`WRITEFREELY_FEDERATION`, `WRITEFREELY_PUBLIC_STATS`, `WRITEFREELY_PRIVATE`,
`WRITEFREELY_LOCAL_TIMELINE`, and `WRITEFREELY_USER_INVITES` all correspond to
the similarly named `config.ini` settings. See the [WriteFreely docs][wf:docs]
for more information about them.
