Preparation

Setup data locations

First, we create a directory to hold the data which archivebox will store:

mkdir /var/data/archivebox
mkdir /var/data/config/archivebox
cd /var/data/config/archivebox

Create docker-compose.yml

Create a docker swarm config file in docker-compose syntax (v3), something like the example below:

--8<-- "premix-cta.md"

version: '3.2'

services:
    archivebox:
        image: archivebox/archivebox
        command: server --quick-init 0.0.0.0:8000
        ports:
            - 8000:8000
        networks:
          - traefik_public
        environment:
            - PUID=1000
            - PGID=1000
            - TZ=Pacific/Auckland
            - USE_COLOR=True
            - SHOW_PROGRESS=False
        deploy:
          labels:
            # traefik common
            - traefik.enable=true
            - traefik.docker.network=traefik_public
            # traefikv1
            - traefik.frontend.rule=Host:archive.example.com
            - traefik.port=8000     
            # traefikv2
            - "traefik.http.routers.archive.rule=Host(`archive.example.com`)"
            - "traefik.http.routers.archive.entrypoints=https"
            - "traefik.http.services.archive.loadbalancer.server.port=8000" 
        volumes:
          - /var/data/archivebox:/data


networks:
  traefik_public:
    external: true
