.. _installation:

===============
Install rcstack
===============

To get started with RhodeCode get the new shell installer called rcstack

.. code-block:: bash

    mkdir docker-rhodecode && cd docker-rhodecode
    curl -L -s -o rcstack https://dls.rhodecode.com/get-rcstack && chmod +x rcstack
    ./rcstack get-started


rcstack is open-source and you can find source for it here:

https://code.rhodecode.com/rhodecode-enterprise-docker



Pre requisites
--------------

To Run this stack Docker engine and Docker Compose needs to be installed on the host machine.
Please run `./rcstack init` to install docker using the installer, or
visit docker site and install docker (min version 20.10) and docker compose:

- https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/
- https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

If there's docker already installed, rcstack will detect that and skip docker installation.

rcstack is using the below command to install docker, if you prefer to install it manually run it before and installer will skip docker installation


.. code-block:: bash

    curl https://get.docker.com/ | sh



Quick install tutorial
----------------------

Those are step-by-step installation/run steps.

1. **initialize; create configurations / docker definitions**

Run the following command

.. code-block:: bash

    ./rcstack init

This will ensure docker is installed, copy all required files, and create default configuration. The
prompt will ask few question on initial account setup, SSL usage and license-token (only relevant for EE).
At this point a custom file under :file:`.custom/.runtime.env` was created. Adjust it if required.
Few adjustments that could be done are for example to change the domain address, or SSH port


2. **Start router to handle all incoming traffic**

Start Traefik router that would handle all incoming traffic, load balance.

.. note::

    IMPORTANT: A valid domain needs to be set during bootstrap. This is stored inside .custom/.runtime.env file.
    To access the RhodeCode stack running the domain needs to be entered in the browser.
    This can be a local entry or real domain, e.g rhodecode.local or rhodecode.yourcompany.com (pointing to the machine IP)
    In case machine can't resolve the domain, a 404 page will be shown

.. note::

    IMPORTANT: router binds to some common ports 80, 443, SSH (9022), Loki (3100) if those are
    not available, please adjust them inside the override docker file :file:`.custom/docker-compose-router.override.yaml`

Run the router stack in the background


.. code-block:: bash

    ./rcstack stack router up --detach



3. **Start the database**

.. code-block:: bash

    ./rcontrol stack database up --detach

.. note::

    By default RhodeCode stack is configured to run PostgreSQL database inside docker. If you need to run mysql, or external
    database, please disable the database inside services stack. :see: configuration of database


4. **Start other services required**

Run all other required services


.. code-block:: bash

    ./rcstack stack services up --detach


5. **Start RhodeCode stack**

.. code-block:: bash

    ./rcstack stack rhodecode up --detach


6. **Check stack status**

.. code-block:: bash

    ./rcstack status


Output should look similar to this:

.. code-block:: bash

At this point you should be able to access:

- RhodeCode instance at your domain entered, e.g http://rhodecode.local, the default access
  credentials are generated and stored inside .runtime.env.
  For example::

    RHODECODE_USER_NAME=admin
    RHODECODE_USER_PASS=super-secret-password


- Grafana monitoring dashboard at `/_grafana` subpath. E.g http://rhodecode.local/_grafana, grafana generates default access credentials
  those need to be changed after first login::

    user: admin
    pass: admin
