Environment variables
There are a bunch of environment variables that must be set up in order for the instance to run properly.
Let's go through these variables in detail.
License Key
The license key to use with this docker container. The container will exit if it is not able to contact https://taskforce.sh and validate the license.
You will find your license key on your Taskforce.sh account.
Host
This variable should point to the actual host running the dashboard, for example: https://my.taskforce.dashboard.com
Redis
The dashboard uses Redis for some internal communication and for the Monitoring and Alerts system. A small instance of about 128Mb RAM will be enough in most cases.
PostgreSQL
There are a few variables used to configure the required postgres database, just fill in the values for your database provider accordingly. You won't need a powerful PostgreSQL instance for the dashboard, any minimal instance will do.
Auth0
The authentication of the users is performed by Auth0. If you are not using Auth0 you can just create a free account which will most likely be enough for your needs. There are some steps involved in configuring Auth0 properly, please refer to this guide.
Mailgun
Mailgun is used for sending alert messages as well as team invitations. You can get a Mailgun account with generous quotas for free, then just follow these instructions.
