Fider is an open source web tool to allow users to log in easily with OAuth support and post requests that can be upvoted by other users.

Setting up

  • Download Docker image
  • Following the directions here did not work for synology NAS
    • use info in yml file to manually configure docker image using the synology docker UI
    • download Postgres image
    • configure all environment variables from the yml file
    • db port does not need to be exposed because docker lets images talk to themselves
    • link to local port to container port and use synology reverse proxy
    • use google SMTP server login details. other mail options didn't work
    • follow the directions on Fider's website to configure OAuth for Google and Facebook
  • Set up oAuth for Azure Active Directory [1]
  • https://portal.azure.com and navigate to Azure Active Directory -> App Registrations
  • copy Application (client) ID
  • go to Certificates & secrets, New client secret, set to never expire
    • Authorize URL or end point: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{yourTenantId}/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
    • Token URL: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{yourTenantId}/oauth2/v2.0/token
    • Profile API URL: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me
  • In Azure, add the callback URL generated by Fider by adding the Web platform configuration

Setting up a second instance

  • Duplicate the settings of the postgres container in the Docker UI
  • Make a new folder and link the fider database to it
  • Do the same for the fider container
  • Change the port for Fider
  • Link the container to the new db, but change the name (e.g. db-2) and make sure the environment variable DATABASE_URL matches the new name.
  • Launch the database container, check log to make sure it's ready to accept connections
  • Launch Fider container
  • If both are successful, register reverse proxy
  • Register subdomain in DNS provider (e.g. Google Domains)
  • Add subdomain to certs for Let's Encrypt (make sure connection can be made)
