Run Hasura GraphQL Engine on DigitalOcean using Docker ====================================================== This guide helps you set up the Hasura GraphQL engine (w/ or w/o HTTPS) on DigitalOcean using Docker. Step 1: Create and prepare a droplet ------------------------------------ - Login to your DigitalOcean account - Click on ``create`` droplet then on ``One-click apps`` - Choose ``Docker`` from the ``One-click apps`` list - Choose your droplet size - Choose nearest datacenter region from your location - Select your SSH key (add if you haven't added one) - Choose a hostname and then click on ``create`` button. - Now SSH into the droplet. Step 2: Get required setup files -------------------------------- The `hasura/graphql-engine/install-manifests/docker-compose `_ and `hasura/graphql-engine/install-manifests/docker-compose-https `_ repos contains all installation manifests required to deploy Hasura on DigitalOcean. .. admonition:: Setup file download .. rst-class:: api_tabs .. tabs:: .. tab:: HTTP Get the docker deployment file for HTTP installation from there: .. code-block:: bash $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hasura/graphql-engine/master/install-manifests/docker-compose/docker-compose.yaml .. tab:: HTTPS Get the docker deployment and Caddy file from there for HTTPS installation: .. code-block:: bash $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hasura/graphql-engine/master/install-manifests/docker-compose-https/docker-compose.yaml $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hasura/graphql-engine/master/install-manifests/docker-compose-https/Caddyfile Step 3: Set access key to secure your GraphQL Engine ---------------------------------------------------- Edit value of ``HASURA_GRAPHQL_ACCESS_KEY`` in ``docker-compose.yaml`` and set a secure access key: .. code-block:: bash :emphasize-lines: 3 ... environment: HASURA_GRAPHQL_ACCESS_KEY: mysecretaccesskey HASURA_GRAPHQL_DATABASE_URL: postgres://postgres:@postgres:5432/postgres command: ... Step 4: Set existing Postgres server (optional) ----------------------------------------------- Edit value of ``HASURA_GRAPHQL_DATABASE_URL`` in ``docker-compose.yaml`` and set an existing ``Postgres`` server: .. code-block:: bash :emphasize-lines: 4 ... environment: HASURA_GRAPHQL_ACCESS_KEY: mysecretaccesskey HASURA_GRAPHQL_DATABASE_URL: postgres://user:password@hostname:port/dbname command: ... Step 5: Set domain name for HTTPS (optional) -------------------------------------------- Now replace ```` in ``Caddyfile`` with your domain name. Example: ``example.org``. Now point domain to the public IP of the droplet in your domain DNS setting. Step 6: Start GraphQL Engine ---------------------------- Run ``docker-compose up -d`` & then run ``docker ps`` to check if everything is running well. It should look like this: .. code-block:: bash CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES 33b3f3cfa4ad abiosoft/caddy "/bin/parent caddy -…" 2 hours ago Up 2 hours 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, 0.0.0.0:443->443/tcp, 2015/tcp root_caddy_1 e2d60e13ab4e hasura/graphql-engine:v1.0.0-alpha23 "graphql-engine serv…" 2 hours ago Up 2 hours root_graphql-engine_1 2c8393a72865 postgres "docker-entrypoint.s…" 2 hours ago Up 2 hours 5432/tcp root_postgres_1 Step 7: Open the Hasura console ------------------------------- Head to ``https://your-domain.com/`` to open the Hasura console if you installed on HTTPS. Head to ``http://your-droplet-ip:8080/`` to open the Hasura console if you installed on HTTP.
