Introduction¤

This page describes a docker compose based orchestration running on your local machine and accessible via browser.

The code examples in this section assumes that you have POSIX-compliant shell (linux, macOS or WSL for Windows).

Requirements¤

  • Access credentials to eccenca Artifactory and eccenca Docker Registry → contact us to get yours
  • docker and docker compose (v2) installed locally
  • git installed locally
  • At least 4 CPUs and 12GB of RAM (recommended: 16GB) dedicated to docker

Setup & Check Installation Environment¤

Download the Corporate Memory docker orchestration from eccenca Artifactory.

Open a terminal window, create a directory, copy and extract docker orchestration there.

# create eccenca-corporate-memory directory in your ${HOME} and set as a working dir

$ mkdir ${HOME}/eccenca-corporate-memory && cd ${HOME}/eccenca-corporate-memory

# cp Corporate Memory docker orchestration distribution in the local directory
# Change VERSION to the version you have downloaded e.g. v20.03

$ cp ${HOME}/Downloads/cmem-orchestration-VERSION.zip ./
$ unzip cmem-orchestration-VERSION.zip
$ rm cmem-orchestration-VERSION.zip
$ git init && git add . && git commit -m "stub"

Check your local environment:

# run the following command (without $) to check your docker server version, should be at least 26.1
# to have the current security patches, always update your docker version to the latest one

$ docker version | grep -i version
Version:    26.1.4

# check docker compose version, should be at least 
# update to the latest version if necessary

$ docker compose version
Docker Compose version v2.27.1

# login into eccenca docker registry

$ docker login docker-registry.eccenca.com

Installation¤

To install Corporate Memory, you need to modify your local hosts file (located in /etc/hosts), minimal configuration is as follows:

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 docker.localhost
127.0.0.1 corporate.memory

Corporate Memory uses Ontotext GraphDB triple store as default backend. Graphdb is available as free version and does not requires a license. If you have a license for graphdb you can copy the file to the licensefolder inside Corporate Memory’s root folder.

$ cp YOUR_SE_LICENSE_FILE ${HOME}/cmem-orchestration-VERSION/licenses/graphdb-se.license
# or
$ cp YOUR_EE_LICENSE_FILE ${HOME}/cmem-orchestration-VERSION/licenses/graphdb-ee.license

Then change the file environments/config.env to use the correct version:

###############################
# Stores                      #
###############################
# default: graphdb-se
#DP_STORE=graphdb-ee
DP_STORE=graphdb-free

Run the command to clean workspace, pull the images, start the Corporate Memory instance and load initial data:

$ cd ${HOME}/cmem-orchestration-VERSION

# Pulling the images will take time

$ make clean-pull-start-bootstrap

You should see the output as follows:
