Feature idea: adding configuration for a docker-based deployment to the repository

Open Wint3rmute opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Hello!

I'm interested in using Lieu as an internal search engine. The current documentation only describes how one would build Lieu and run lieu host to start the engine, but it does not suggest any specific way of running a system-level service with Lieu (be it via SystemD/Docker/etc). In my opinion, adding a one-command deployment option would make it easier for people to try out Lieu on their machines.

I'd like to add:

  • an example docker-compose.yml file
  • documentation about deploying via docker
  • (still wondering if that makes sense) a small program run as another container specified in docker-compose, which would periodically run lieu precrawl/crawl/ingest

Would you be interested in such a contribution, or do you find providing docker-based deployment documentation as too opinionated for your project?

@Wint3rmute hey! great username :) happy to hear you'd like to use Lieu! I wouldn't want to maintain the docker-compose.yml file, but how about this:

create a PR that adds a new file to the docs/ section titled "deployment-with-docker.md", for an example see the querying doc. provide either the example docker-compose file inline of that document or as a link to a repo with a deployment that you maintain, and then write the rest of the deployment instructions.

how does that sound? :>
