Dockerfile

[abate]

Thank you for this project ! I really don't think to use the proprietary bridge from protonmail.

Since hydroxide is meant to run headless, I think it makes sense to have a small dockerfile for
it and run it in a separate container. Below, there is a simple example to build and create such container.

To make it usable I need a few more information.

• For carddav, do I still need a reverse proxy or I can connect directly to the port offered by hydroxide
  ?
• Where the configuration files are stored ? Docker can bind mount a directory (ex. ~/.hydroxide) or create a docker volume to store all the configuration file and persistent data.
• At the moment if I want smtp, imap and carddav, I need to launch three process. Maybe you can change the command line to select which services should be available and then fork three threads ? Something like :

> docker run hydroxide carddav smtp
2019/02/27 08:28:27 Starting CardDAV server at 127.0.0.1:8080
2019/02/27 08:25:33 Starting SMTP server at 127.0.0.1:1025

Otherwise to containerize hydroxide I need to add a process manager that defeats a bit the philosophy of one process per container ...

Once you have docker installed on your machine and saved the snipped below as Dockerfile , it's just as simple as docker build . -t hydroxide and docker run hydroxide

FROM golang:1-alpine as builder
  
RUN apk --update upgrade \
&& apk --no-cache --no-progress add git make gcc musl-dev \
&& rm -rf /var/cache/apk/*

RUN go get github.com/emersion/hydroxide/cmd/hydroxide

FROM alpine:3.9
RUN apk --update upgrade \
    && apk --no-cache --no-progress add ca-certificates git \
    && rm -rf /var/cache/apk/*

EXPOSE 1025
EXPOSE 1143
EXPOSE 8080

COPY --from=builder /go/bin/hydroxide /usr/bin/hydroxide

ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/hydroxide"]

And one last question : this is me not understanding... when I do hydroxide auth <username> which username is that ? protonmail ? Or a local username used to store all the protonmail data separate from others ?

For carddav, do I still need a reverse proxy or I can connect directly to the port offered by hydroxide
?

You can connect directly but only locally as it's not HTTPS.

Where the configuration files are stored?

As of the latest release, $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/hydroxide (if not set, $HOME/.config/hydroxide).

At the moment if I want smtp, imap and carddav, I need to launch three process. Maybe you can change the command line to select which services should be available and then fork three threads ?

Yes. Launching 3 processes won't work well (at least if you run both IMAP and CardDAV, SMTP and another server might work better). I definitely want to add this feature: #21

when I do hydroxide auth which username is that ? protonmail ? Or a local username used to store all the protonmail data separate from others ?

Added some README instructions about this.

@abate did you ever publish your dockerfile?

@emersion would you prefer a pull request or keeping a dockerfile in a separate repo?

I'd prefer if the Dockerfile was community-maintained, out-of-tree.

@emersion cool, I've set up some example configurations here: https://github.com/harleylang/hydroxide-docker
