Script Categories

Setup Scripts

All setup scripts follow the naming convention setup<Application>.sh:

  • setupWordpress.sh <domain> <customerName> - WordPress with MySQL
  • setupMysql.sh <password> - Standalone MySQL server
  • setupPortainer.sh - Portainer management interface
  • setupPiHole.sh - Pi-hole ad blocker
  • setupRedmineSQLite3.sh <domain> - Redmine with SQLite

Management Scripts

  • cleanNetwork.sh <customerName> - Remove customer networks
  • removeContainer.sh <containerName> - Stop and remove containers
  • cleanUp.sh <domain> - Clean up by domain
  • startAllContainers.sh <containerFile> - Bulk container startup

Utility Scripts

  • console.sh <containerID> <command> - Execute commands in containers
  • createDB.sh <user> <database> - Create MySQL databases
  • listDomains.sh - List active domains
  • setupHosts.sh <hostname> - Add entries to /etc/hosts

Backup & Restore

  • backupAll.sh <containerFile> - Backup multiple containers
  • dockerBackup.sh <container> - Backup single container
  • dockerRestore.sh <container> - Restore container from backup

Usage Examples

WordPress Deployment

./setupWordpress.sh example.com customer1

Creates:

  • Customer-specific Docker network
  • MySQL container with generated password
  • WordPress container linked to MySQL
  • Domain configuration for reverse proxy

Database Setup

./setupMysql.sh mySecurePassword

Container Management

./removeContainer.sh customer1-wordpress
./cleanNetwork.sh customer1

Backup Operations

./dockerBackup.sh customer1-wordpress
./backupAll.sh container_list.txt

Network Architecture

Scripts automatically create isolated networks for multi-container applications:

  • Customer-specific networks (e.g., customer1-wordpress-net)
  • Secure inter-container communication
  • External access via reverse proxy

Security Features

  • Generated Passwords: Automatic secure password generation
  • Network Isolation: Containers run in isolated networks
  • Access Control: Domain-based access restrictions
  • No Hardcoded Credentials: Passwords generated at runtime

Prerequisites

  • Docker installed and running
  • Sufficient permissions for Docker operations
  • pwgen for password generation (WordPress setup)
  • dialog for interactive menus

Configuration

Port Management

Scripts automatically detect port conflicts and adjust:

  • MySQL: Defaults to 3306, falls back to 3307 if occupied
  • Applications: Configurable port mapping

Domain Setup

Most web applications support virtual host configuration for reverse proxy setups.

Contributing

When adding new setup scripts:

  1. Follow the naming convention setup<Application>.sh
  2. Include syntax validation and help text
  3. Use consistent variable naming
  4. Add error handling for missing parameters
  5. Update the menu system accordingly
