Using Docker

With Docker

1. Configure

mcaptcha is highly configurable.

Configuration is applied/merged in the following order:

  1. path to configuration file passed in via MCAPTCHA_CONFIG
  2. ./config/default.toml
  3. /etc/mcaptcha/config.toml
  4. environment variables.

See CONFIGURATION.md for configurable options.

2. Run image

If you have already have a Postgres instance running, then:

docker run -p <host-machine-port>:<port-in-configuration-file> \
	--add-host=database:<database-ip-addrss> \
	-e RUST_LOG=debug \
	-e DATABASE_URL="postgres://<db-user>:<db-password>@database:<db-port>/<db-name>" \
	mcaptcha/mcaptcha:latest

If you don’t have a Postgres instance running, you can either install one using a package manager or launch one with docker.

With docker-compose

  1. Download docker-compose file and the configuration file:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha/master/.env.docker-compose
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mCaptcha/mCaptcha/master/docker-compose.yml
  1. Configure deployment using .env.docker-compose environment variable file

  2. Launch containers:

docker-compose up -d
  1. Configure SSL using reverse proxy: mCaptcha doesn’t support SSL at the moment, so please use a reverse proxy to secure your instance. A reference nginx virtual host configuration file is available here.
