⚠ Under Construction ⚠

|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
This docker compose file will give you everything you need to run Wave. See the following
|
|
sections for explanations about the configuration and makeup of Wave. Replace <*_password>
|
|
with generated passwords, just in case, replace your-time-zone with a sensible time zone
|
|
for your users.
|
|
|
|
For extensive configuration you want to mount `/configuration` to a location on your system.
|
|
|
|
Afterwards you can access Wave on `http://localhost`.
|
|
|
|
To see how to create an admin account, read the following section. Afterwards for security
|
|
you should [Configure an Email Server](#configuring-email).
|
|
|
|

```
|
|
|
|
Note: when binding the files volume to a local directory, keep in mind Wave runs by default on an
|
|
internal "app" user (`1654:1654`), not root. You need to adjust your directory permissions or
|
|
docker compose file accordingly (or just slap `chmod -R 777` on it).
|
|
|
|
### Admin Access
|
|
|
|
When Wave does not detect any admin account in its database on startup, which usually happens during
|
|
setup, a message will be printed to it's server console, in docker accessible with `docker logs wave-web-1`:
|
|
|
|
`There is currently no user in your installation with the admin role, go to /Admin and use the following password to self promote your account: [password]`
|
|
|
|
The password is 16 digits long, navigate to `http://localhost/Admin`, if you are not logged in you will be redirected to
|
|
the login page. Once you are authenticated and have entered the password on the admin page, the tool will be disabled and
|
|
you will be a member of the admin role, giving you full access to all of Waves' features. ~~Keep in mind that the password
|
|
is generated every time on startup as long as there is no admin, so if you restart the container, there will be a different
|
|
password in the console.~~ Since pull request #3 probably stays the same.
|
|
|
|
## Configuring Wave
|
|
|
|
Wave allows you to configure it in many different formats and in multiple places, and
|
|
you can even use multiple of the following methods to supply configuration information.
|
|
Please keep in mind that first, asp.net configuration keys are case-insensitive, and second,
|
|
that there is a precedence in the different formats, so a value for the same key in two
|
|
formats will be overwritten by one.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration Locations
|
|
|
|
There are two main locations where Wave (and asp.net) takes its configuration from:
|
|
The Environment, and the `/configuration` volume. Environment variables allow you to quickly
|
|
set up a docker container, but the more you need to configure the more unmaintainable an
|
|
`.env` file (or an `environment:` section in docker compose) becomes, so if you find yourself
|
|
customizing a lot of Waves behaviour, consider using one of the many supported configuration
|
|
file formats.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration Keys
|
|
|
|
I will provide you the different configuration keys with a dot notation, like `Email.Smtp.Host`.
|
|
In environment variables, these dots need to be replaced with two underscore characters: `__`
|
|
and prefixed with `WAVE_`.
|
|
In config files, those dots are hierarchy level, and you need to implement that dialects'
|
|
syntax for it. Here some examples for `Email.Smtp.Host`:
|
|
|
|
**Environment**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
WAVE_Email__Smtp__Host=smtp.example.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**JSON**
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"Email": {
|
|
"Smtp:": {
|
|
"Host": "smtp.example.com"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**YAML**
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
Email:
|
|
Smtp:
|
|
Host: smtp.example.com
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Supported Configuration Formats
|
|
|
|
Wave will take configuration from the following files in the `/configuration` volume, files
|
|
later in this chain will have precedence over files earlier in that chain:
|
|
|
|
- config.json
|
|
- config.yml
|
|
- config.toml
|
|
- config.ini
|
|
- config.xml
|
|
|
|
After this, values from the Environment will take the highest precedence.
|
|
|
|
## Configuring Email
|
|
|
|
Wave may send user related mails every now and then, to confirm an account, reset a password, etc.
|
|
In order to support that, Wave needs to have a way to send Emails, currently SMTP is supported.
|
|
|
|
### SMTP
|
|
|
|
The following configuration is required for Wave to connect to a smtp server
|
|
(formatted in YAML for brevity).
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
Email:
|
|
SenderEmail: noreply@example.com
|
|
SenderName: Wave
|
|
ServiceEmail: contact@example.com # used in various places, including email newsletter ListId Header
|
|
Smtp:
|
|
Live:
|
|
Host: smtp.example.com
|
|
Port: 25
|
|
Username: user
|
|
Password: password
|
|
Ssl: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`Username` and `Password` are optional if your server does not require it, and `Ssl` is
|
|
`true` by default, only set it to false if you really need to, keeping security in mind.
|
|
|
|
## Redis
|
|
|
|
Wave will generate a variety of keys for anti-forgery and logged in users during it's
|
|
runtime. By default, these will be persisted into an in-memory key store, which will be
|
|
lost when restarting the Wave container, causing all users to be logged out. To persist
|
|
these keys outside of the containers' lifetime, you can configure a Redis connection string
|
|
using `ConnectionStrings.Redis`.
|
|
|
|
## Reverse Proxy
|
|
|
|
In order to make your Wave installation available to the web, you want to use a reverse
|
|
proxy to handle things like SSL Certificates. Here are some examples.
|
|
|
|
### Caddy
|
|
|
|
In the Caddyfile add:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<your domain> {
|
|
encode gzip zstd
|
|
|
|
@static path_regexp \.(js|css|svg|png|webp|jxl|jpg|jpeg|woff2)$
|
|
header ?Cache-Control "max-age=600"
|
|
header @static Cache-Control "max-age=3600"
|
|
header -server
|
|
reverse_proxy localhost:8080
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If Caddy runs as a docker container, you need to use the Wave container name instead of `localhost`.
|
|
Adapt the Cache-Control header to your needs, this config sets a fallback of 600 (10 minutes) and
|
|
3600 (60 minutes) for static assets like fonts, images, js and css. Wave will set a Cache-Control
|
|
header for certain files, only overwrite them if you know what you are doing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Nginx
|
|
|
|
TODO
|
|
|
|
## RSS
|
|
|
|
Wave by default supports retrieving your articles with rss, both the vanilla and the atom flavour.
|
|
The RSS endpoints are located at `/rss/rss.xml` and `/rss/atom.xml`. They also allow you to filter for
|
|
a category with a `category` query parameter like so: `/rss/atom.xml?category=cats`.
|
|
|
|
If for some reason you wish to disable these endpoints and RSS with it, set the configuration key
|
|
`Features.RSS` to false. Please don't disable it because you think it will make your site more secure
|
|
or less scrapable, it does not.
|
|
|
|
## Email Subscriptions
|
|
|
|
Wave can allow users to subscribe to E-Mail updates about new articles. In order to enable this feature
|
|
you first need to set the configuration key `Features.EmailSubscriptions` to true. You also need to configure
|
|
Emails in general, please follow the [Configure an Email Server](#configuring-email) Section for this.
|
|
|
|
Besides this you will need to provide a mail distributor for these bulk E-Mails. This may be the same
|
|
as you have already configured for live E-Mails, in this case just copy the configuration from there, but
|
|
especially at larger volumes it is advisable to separate these concerns, and many hosting providers
|
|
for large mail distribution will provide you with two sets of credentials for this.
|
|
|
|
If you have followed all the previous instructions, your E-Mail configuration may look like this:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
Email:
|
|
SenderEmail: noreply@example.com
|
|
SenderName: Wave
|
|
ServiceEmail: contact@example.com # used in various places, including email newsletter ListId Header
|
|
Smtp:
|
|
Live:
|
|
Host: smtp.example.com
|
|
Port: 25
|
|
Username: user
|
|
Password: password
|
|
Ssl: true
|
|
Bulk:
|
|
Host: bulk.smtp.example.com
|
|
Port: 465
|
|
Username: bulk-user
|
|
Password: bulk-password
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
