Dockerimage for Quasselcore

Stateful usage (with UI Wizard)

To use Quassel statefully (which allows you to configure the core on first use) run it with --entrypoint=/usr/bin/quasselcore and make sure to include --configdir /quassel as argument.

If you use the core in this mode, you’ll have to make sure /quassel is stored on a volume.

Stateless usage

By default, the core will be run in stateless mode, where it needs to be configured through environment arguments.

DB_BACKEND defines the backend used for the database, this can be SQLite or PostgreSQL. In case SQLite is used, the database will be stored in /root/.config/quassel-irc.org/quassel-storage.sqlite. If PostgreSQL is used instead, these variables determine the connection details: DB_PGSQL_USERNAME, DB_PGSQL_PASSWORD, DB_PGSQL_HOSTNAME, DB_PGSQL_PORT, DB_PGSQL_DATABASE.

AUTH_AUTHENTICATOR defines the backend used for authentication, this can be Database or LDAP. In case LDAP is used, the following environment variables determine the connection details: AUTH_LDAP_HOSTNAME, AUTH_LDAP_PORT, AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN, AUTH_LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD, AUTH_LDAP_BASE_DN, AUTH_LDAP_FILTER, AUTH_LDAP_UID_ATTRIBUTE.

SSL

You can use the core with SSL, in this case you should either put a quasselCert.pem file with the full certificate chain and private key into the /quassel volume, or you can use the --ssl-cert and --ssl-key arguments to use separate key and certificate.

Ports

Per default, the container will listen on the port 4242 for connections. This can be configured with --port and --listen.

If the --ident-daemon argument is passed, the ident daemon will additionally listen on 10113. You can configure this with --ident-port.
