You can use this image as a web app or as a CLI.

To use it as a web app:

2. Navigate in your browser to http://localhost:8123

To use it as a CLI

1. Run the dockerfile with docker run -it --entrypoint bash shadiakiki1986/ides-data-preparation-php
2. At the terminal inside the image run php www/transmitter.php --help

To load the workspace folders to the host, e.g. to see the downloaded files, or the backed up generated files:

1. Create an empty directory /home/shadi/ides_cache
2. Run image with docker run -p 8123:80 -d -v /home/shadi/ides_cache:/var/lib/IDES/cache -t shadiakiki1986/ides-data-preparation-php

To set your own institution GIIN, receiver GIIN, SSL certificate, private/public keys:

1. Create an empty directory /home/shadi/ides_etc
2. Run image with docker run -p 8123:80 -d -v /home/shadi/ides_etc:/var/lib/IDES/etc -t shadiakiki1986/ides-data-preparation-php
3. Run docker stop -t shadiakiki1986/ides-data-preparation-php
4. Edit the file /home/shadi/ides_etc/config.yml to set the GIINs (or copy to a config.override.yml file)
5. Copy your certificate, private/pubic keys to /home/shadi/ides_etc/ssl, using the same filenames (otherwise change the desired names in the config.yml file)
6. Re-run the image with the run step above

To set your own getFatcaData php function

When moving to php 7, I need to change

• the php5-... package names in apt-get install
• the php5/cli/php.ini paths
• use pecl install yaml-beta instead of yaml
• check if php5enmod or just phpenmod

To publish app in aws elasticbeanstalk

• read this
• for continuous deployment, couple the travis-ci after_build with elasticbeanstalk CLI
