# Manyfold container

The XRForge-serverimage is a pre-configured Manyfold container (reproducably via [nix](https://nixos.org) dockertools).
It also contains some extra's, to better fit an XR audience.

> To run it, see the [sysadmin](https://manyfold.app/sysadmin/) documentation of the [manyfold](https://github.com/manyfold3d/manyfold) project.

# Build the container-image

```bash
$ docker load < $(nix-build nix/docker.nix)
```

# Extra environment-variables

| environment variable | default    | info                   |
|----------------------|------------|------------------------|
| `APPNAME`            | `manyfold` | manyfold instance name |
| `THEME`              | `default`  | bootstrap theme        |
| `NO_OVERLAYFS`       | ``         | disable the filesystem overlay mechanism |
| `NO_DEFAULTDB`       | ``         | disable the default db (activates manyfold installer) |
| `RCLONE_REMOTE`      | ``         | specify **single** rclone remote name (without semicolon) to mount |

# Default database / admin login

* email: `xrforge@localhost`
* login: `xrforge`
* password: `xrforge!1`

> please modify the password in the settings screen of the webinterface.

# Filesystem overlay-mechanism

The server-image will boot `manyfold/cli/manyfold.sh boot` and check for directory `/manifold` (in the container).
When found, it uses the files in there instead (`/manyfold/usr/src/app/public/404.html` instead of `/usr/src/app/public/404.html` e.g.).

# Remote network-drives (with models)

> Thanks to [rclone](https://rclone.org) network-drives automatically show up as manyfold libraries.

![](https://i.imgur.com/4VMF3CQ.png)

To enable rclone to mount network drives, the container must be run with FUSE-device support.
The quickest way is:

* add `-v ./manyfold/root/.config:/root/.config --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --security-opt apparmor:unconfined --device /dev/fuse` to the docker cmd 
* add network drives by running `docker exec -it rclone config` in a running container
* profit! 

Your drives will get automagically mounted and added to the database automagically (by [manifold.sh](cli/manifold.sh) `rclone_automount`-cmd) during container boot.

> NOTE: by default all rclone remotes automagically show up as separate manyfold libraries, however use `RCLONE_REMOTE` this to specify a [combined](https://rclone.org/combine/) or [union](https://rclone.org/union/) rclone remote.
