Some people want Sandstorm support to quickly host it in cloud

Reopening as still waiting to hear from @sandstorm-io

Internal note

@ssivachidambaram is yet to reply to Sandstorm team. So, moving this item to next milestone.

[ocdtrekkie]

I'd like to know if I can maybe help here. I'm now maintaining the vagrant-spk packaging tool for Sandstorm, and I'd like to know if there's a particular issue we're stuck on with packaging this app.

@ocdtrekkie

Thanks in advance for your help.

We've completed the code in Vagrant and committed here https://github.com/RestyaPlatform/board/tree/dev/.sandstorm. But the thing is PHP FPM is not started while set up in Sandstorm. So our application is not working.

Also in our previous conversation sandstorm-io/sandstorm#3102, @JamborJan asked to try using Docker setup. But we're not well versed in Docker, so we didn't try yet.

So please help us in any one of the above cases.

@ocdtrekkie Can you please tell us if you have tried to configure the Restyaboard in docker setup for Sandstorm

[ocdtrekkie]

I honestly have not yet. I have a notification from this issue in my inbox as a persistent reminder that it is on my todo list though. I will try to get to it soon.

@ocdtrekkie Can you please tell us the steps to follow to configure Restyaboard using Docker in Sandstorm?

[ocdtrekkie]

Is Postgres the only database Restyaboard supports? I think someone might've got that working in Sandstorm, but it's probably the "hard part" of this.

[sridhar391]

@ocdtrekkie Yes, Restyaboard only supports PostgreSQL database and please send us the us the steps to follow to configure Restyaboard using Docker in Sandstorm

[ocdtrekkie]

My usual method would be to use the vagrant-spk tool rather than docker-spk. But Postgres supporti s going to be the blocker: I don't know what is entailed in getting it to work. Most Sandstorm apps use SQLite, Redis, Mongo, or MySQL.

@orblivion has either gotten Postgres working in a Sandstorm sandbox or is the closest to it. Perhaps he can give me some advice on where to proceed here.

@orblivion Can you please tell us the steps to follow to configure Restyaboard with PostgreSQL using Docker in Sandstorm?

I have a sort of proof of concept. There's a lot of caveats that I gave in the email thread where I presented it. I'll just link to it instead of repeating myself: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/sandstorm-dev/using$20postgres$20inside$20apps%7Csort:date/sandstorm-dev/j8CzPRzClGs/qnTZ9PykAgAJ It doesn't have anything to do with Docker though. I'm not sure if that means it won't help you. But it does get past a lot of the hurdles to getting it to work inside the Sandstorm sandbox. Perhaps it'll give you a head start at least.

@orblivion Thanks for your suggestion and we will try to use the information to configure the PostgreSQL in the docker
