Project information

Vaccinecounter is a web-application built with the symfony framework for php and the plain react framework. It provides some tools for doctors offices for monitoring the total number of people in the office. That helps to meet the limit of peoples. Furthermore, you can count the number of people that got vaccined. But the best about this application is, the privacy. There is no user specific information stored in the database or elsewhere. Therefore, the application meets all requirements of the german DSGVO2.

Installation

Installing the vaccinecounter application in your network is very easy. Installing the application with docker is definety the most comfortable way.
NOTE: You need to have docker installed on your device.

• Download the docker-compose.yml

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MathisBurger/vaccinecounter/master/docker-compose.yml

• Change APP_SECRET and passwords

    APP_SECRET: Example secret # choose your own
    POSTGRES_PASSWORD: example_password # choose a safe
    # change the password also in DATABASE_URL

• Start docker containers

    docker-compose up -d

Evironment variables

variable	default	description
APP_ENV	prod	Defines the mode the application is running on. We recommend using the prod mode, because it is optimized and does not expose any user data instead of the dev mode, which is for development only.
APP_SECRET	none	The secret for storing secret. It is required by symfony flex and should be complex and secure.
APP_VERSION	v1.0.0	The current version of the backend server. It has no real purpose, but can be important in later updates because of auto-update cron jobs.
DATABASE_URL	none	The url to the postgresql database that all the data is stored into.

privacy

Because privacy is very important for the target field of this application, the whole application is optimized for privacy. There is no user specific information stored in the application database or elsewhere. Furthermore, the stored data is independend from each other. That means that one stack of data cannot be associated with another, because the only comparable field is a timestamp of the action. Lastly, the whole application is open-source as well as the development process (planing, etc.). That makes the application better understandable, secure, and trustable for everyone who uses it.
