7.How to deploy on cloud by docker

The steps I took to get the docker version running on a fresh AWS vm Names will be different for GCP and Azure, but similar concept

  1. Create vm
  2. Export ports 80, 443 and 5000-5200 as detiled in the readme
  3. Map elastic/external ip to the vm
  4. Configure dns records to point to new ip. THIS IS NEEDED LATER
  5. Clone Ion and checkout docker branch
  6. Modify docker-compose.yml following the readme instructions and with the domain you mapped earlier.
export WWW_URL=yourdomain
export ADMIN_EMAIL=youremail
docker-compose pull
docker-compose up
  1. docker-compose up
  2. chat with: https://yourdomain:8080
