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
|
|
|
|
1. [Docker swarm cluster](/ha-docker-swarm/design/) with [persistent shared storage](/ha-docker-swarm/shared-storage-ceph.md)
|
|
2. [Traefik](/ha-docker-swarm/traefik) configured per design
|
|
|
|
## 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``` 👍

## Serving
|
|
|
|
### Launch Ghost stack
|
|
|
|
Launch the Ghost stack by running ```docker stack deploy ghost -c <path -to-docker-compose.yml>```
|
|
|
|
Create your first administrative account at https://**YOUR-FQDN**/admin/
|
|
|
|
## 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]#
|
|
```
