Mathislewald backend

This repository contains the Docker compose script to run the infrastructure needed for the Mathislewald App. Currently this includes two container:

• Geoserver instance, with CORS enabled
• Streamlit application for uploading data

The necessary volumes are created and mounted within the repository root. The streamlit application directly loads files into the GeoServer data directory. Thus, you need to protect the application

The Geoserver will be publicly available on port 8080, while the streamlit only binds to 127.0.0.1. This way, you can use a secured Proxy to handle access.

The streamlit application will run with non-root user. Hence, you need to provide details to the user. You can find the information by running:

id <USER> -u  # get UID
id <USER> -g  # get GID

Then set these as GID and UID environment variables.

The better approach is to add a .env file to the repo. Additionally, you can set the RESTART=no to prevent a local deployment from restarting on each host system boot:

echo "UID=$(id -u)\nGID=$(id -g)\nRESTART=no" > .env

Finally you can run the whole infrastructure:

docker compose up -d

To make sure everything is running, you can check the running container:

docker compose ps

which should give something like this:
