Advanced installation setup using docker

Download

docker pull recognai/rubrix

Launch (external elasticsearch)

docker run -p 6900:6900 -e "ELASTICSEARCH=<your-elasticsearch-instance-url>" --name rubrix recognai/rubrix

Find running instance

docker ps

Stop container

docker stop rubrix

Deploy your own elasticsearch cluster

Follow the docker installation guide on the official elasticsearch page

Configure elasticsearch role/users

If you have an Elasticsearch instance and want to share resources with other applications, you can easily configure it for using Rubrix.

All you need to take into account is:

  • Rubrix will create its ES indices with the following pattern .rubrix_*. It’s recommended to create a new role (e.g., rubrix) and provide it with all privileges for this index pattern.

  • Rubrix creates an index template for these indices, so you may provide related template privileges to this ES role.

Rubrix uses the ELASTICSEARCH environment variable to set the ES connection.

You can provide the credentials using the following scheme:

http(s)://user:passwd@elastichost
http(s)://user:passwd@elastichost...

Below you can see a screenshot for setting up a new rubrix Role and its permissions:

Deploy to aws instance using docker-machine

Setup an AWS profile

The aws command cli must be installed. Then, type:

aws configure --profile rubrix

and follow command instructions. For more details, visit AWS official documentation

Once the profile is created (a new entry should be appear in file ~/.aws/config), you can activate it via setting environment variable:

export AWS_PROFILE=rubrix

Create docker machine (aws)

docker-machine create --driver amazonec2 \
--amazonec2-root-size 60 \
--amazonec2-instance-type t2.large \
--amazonec2-open-port 80 \
--amazonec2-ami ami-0b541372 \
--amazonec2-region eu-west-1 \
rubrix-aws

Available ami depends on region. The provided ami is available for eu-west regions

Verify machine creation

$>docker-machine ls

NAME                   ACTIVE   DRIVER      STATE     URL                        SWARM   DOCKER     ERRORS

Save asigned machine ip

In our case, the assigned ip is 52.213.178.33

Connect to remote docker machine

To enable the connection between the local docker client and the remote daemon, we must type following command:

eval $(docker-machine env rubrix-aws)

Define a docker-compose.yaml

# docker-compose.yaml
version: "3"

services:
  rubrix:
    image: recognai/rubrix
    ports:
      - "80:80"
    environment:
      ELASTICSEARCH: <elasticsearch-host_and_port>
    restart: unless-stopped

Pull image

docker-compose pull

 Launch docker container

docker-compose up -d

Accessing to rubrix

In our case http://52.213.178.33
