Getting Started

🚧 Prerequisites

⚙️ Container Runtime

You need any host with either

• Docker CE / EE running
• or Docker-CE and configured 'swarm' mode.

📦 Get the image

You can download the image from Gitea's embedded container registry: gitea.ocram85.com/arkanum/arkanum with these tags:

• latest - Is based on the lasted master branch commit.
• next - Is a test build based on the pull request
• 1, 0.1, 0.1.0, 1.0.0 - tag based version.

💡 NOTE: See the packages page for latest version and all other available tags.

The container images are also published to these registries:

• Docker Hub
  • Pull Endpoint: ocram85/arkanum
• GitHub Container Registry
  • Pull Endpoint: ghcr.io/ocram85/arkanum
• Codeberg Packages
• Pull Endpoint: codeberg.org/arkanum/arkanum

🏗️ Installation

Run as Docker Swarm Stack

This example shows how to run arkanum as an additional swarm stack.

Therefore you need

• an already running docker swarm cluster,
• a running traefik instance handling the http and https routes,
• configured to expose services in the a ingress overlay network called traefik-public.

❗ Warning: Make sure to secure the access to arkanum with proper authentication method and use a trusted + secure https connection.

💡 NOTE: For advanced config with additional environment variables see linuxserver/docker-code-server help.

Use Docker-Compose

This is a basic example for a docker-compose file from the linuxserver/docker-code-server project.

See their docs about a detailed help for advanced config parameters.

🦶 First Steps

After summon Arkanum your first steps should be to set your username and email in the git config:

arkanum git setup "my-name" "my-email"

And that's it. Now you're ready use arkanum as your daily remote code editor. 😄
