Production setup

WIP

Setting up webKnossos requires knowledge about creating and maintaining server infrastructure. This is a high-level guide. Please contact us to discuss specific issues.

We recommend deploying webKnossos with Docker. On our systems we run webKnossos on a Kubernetes cluster.

• Install latest Docker engine and Docker compose
• Get a (sub)domain to run webKnossos on
• Get a SSL certificate for the (sub)domain
• Create binaryData and userBinaryData that is owned and writable by (uid=1000 gid=1000)
• Deploy a mongoDB server (for serious deployments we recommend a replica set)
• Create a configuration file (see below for an example)
