# LimeSurvey Docker
Dockerfile to build a [LimeSurvey](https://limesurvey.org) Image for the Docker container platform.
# Using the apache image
The apache image comes with an Apache Webserver and PHP installed.
# Apache Configuration
To change to Apache Webserver configuration, mount a Volume into the Container at:
- /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
See the example configuration provided.
# Using the fpm image
To use the fpm image, you need an additional web server that can proxy http-request to the fpm-port of the container. See *docker-compose.fpm.yml* for example.
# Using the fpm image with https
If you would like to run the fpm setup with https, you can get a free certificate from Letsencrypt. As an example, the configuration in *docker-compose.fpm-certbot.yml*
will take care of getting a certificate and installing it. Please note that you will have to adjust the domain name in the file *examples/nginx-certbot.conf* to match
the domain used in the *HOSTNAMES* variable in the docker-compose configuration file. If you added both the a domain and the hostname *www* within the domain,
*nginx-certbot.conf* needs to contain the domain without the hostname. E.g. if you set *"HOSTNAMES=example.org www.example.org"*, the path in *nginx-certbot.conf* needs
to contain *example.org*.
# Using an external database
LimeSurvey requires an external database (MySQL, PostgreSQL) to run. See *docker-compose.yml* for example.
# Persistent data
To preserve the uploaded files assign the upload folder into a volume. See *docker-compose.yml* for example.
Path: */var/www/html/upload/surveys*
**Hint**: The mounted directory must be owned by the webserver user (e.g. www-data)
# LimeSurvey Configuration
The entrypoint will create a new config.php if none is provided and run the LimeSurvey command line interface for installation.
**Hint**: Changing the *ADMIN_* configuration has no effect after the initial configuration. It's best to do this within the application.
To change to LimeSurvey configuration, you can mount a Volume into the Container at:
- /my-data/config.php:/var/www/html/application/config/config.php
**Hint**: If this configuration is present before the installation, the LimeSurvey Web Installer will not run automatically.
## Data Encryption
LimeSurvey 4 supports data encryption, this image give you these options:
* Provide a security.php file directly (volume)
* Provide encryption keys for the security.php file (environment variables)
* Provide nothing and get a non-persistent security.php file
For further details on the settings see: https://manual.limesurvey.org/Data_encryption

# Running this image with docker-compose
The easiest way to get a fully featured and functional setup is using a docker-compose file. Several examples are provided in the repository.
```
docker-compose up
# Frontend
http://localhost:8080/
# Backend
http://localhost:8080/index.php/admin
```
