hero: Ghost - A recipe for beautiful online publication.
# Ghost
[Ghost](https://ghost.org) is "a fully open source, hackable platform for building and running a modern online publication."

## Ingredients
!!! summary "Ingredients"
Existing:
1. [X] [Docker swarm cluster](/ha-docker-swarm/design/) with [persistent shared storage](/ha-docker-swarm/shared-storage-ceph.md)
2. [X] [Traefik](/ha-docker-swarm/traefik_public) configured per design
3. [X] DNS entry for the hostname you intend to use, pointed to your [keepalived](ha-docker-swarm/keepalived/) IP
## Preparation
### Setup data locations
Create the location for the bind-mount of the application data, so that it's persistent:
```
mkdir -p /var/data/ghost
```
### Setup Docker Swarm
Create a docker swarm config file in docker-compose syntax (v3), something like this:
!!! tip
I share (_with my [patreon patrons](https://www.patreon.com/funkypenguin)_) a private "_premix_" git repository, which includes necessary docker-compose and env files for all published recipes. This means that patrons can launch any recipe with just a ```git pull``` and a ```docker stack deploy``` 👍
```

## Chef's Notes 📓
1. If I wasn't committed to a [static-site-generated blog](https://www.funkypenguin.co.nz/blog/), Ghost is the platform I'd use for my blog.
2. A default using the SQlite database takes 548k of space:
```
[root@ds1 ghost]# du -sh /var/data/ghost/
548K /var/data/ghost/
[root@ds1 ghost]#
```
