Is it possible to build to run in balena.io?
There was an attempt to run on raspberry pi zero w using GitHub - passbolt/passbolt_docker: Get started with Passbolt CE using docker! but without success.
Hi @eleimt 
and welcome to passbolt community forum 
Can you tell me more about balena.io ? If I understand well, it is a cloud where you can deploy docker images on small machines such as raspberry, and arm-based ?
The official passbolt docker image is currently amd64-only. We already had this request here and if needed, you can try this community passbolt docker image, I created it based on our passbolt docker repository.
In a few lines, I built it like this:
# Clone of the passbolt_docker repository
git clone git@github.com:passbolt/passbolt_docker.git
# Go to the passbolt_docker repository
cd passbolt_docker
# Build time !
# 3.5.0-ce-multiarch
docker buildx build --build-arg PASSBOLT_REPO_URL=https://download.passbolt.com/ce/debian --build-arg PASSBOLT_PKG=passbolt-ce-server --build-arg PASSBOLT_FLAVOUR=ce --build-arg PASSBOLT_COMPONENT=stable -t anatomicjc/passbolt:3.5.0-ce-multiarch --push --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64/v8,linux/arm/v7,linux/arm/v6,linux/386 -f debian/Dockerfile .

Cheers,
Yes, you understood the idea of the service correctly balena.io. The main problem is that balena expects one Dockerfile or docker-compose file to run.
I created a test account on Balena but I don’t have any free Raspberry to test. You can pick-up our docker-compose.yaml example file, customize environment variables, replace the passbolt/passbolt:latest-ce image with the anatomicjc/passbolt:latest-ce-multiarch one and give it a try 
Feedbacks are welcome
Hi again @eleimt
Thank you for letting me play with your Raspberry Pi Zero through balena.io cloud service. It was fun !
As a follow-up for the ones interested:
- I read the getting started page
- I sent a registering url to @eleimt who has setup his raspberry following the getting started page instructions
- I downloaded the Balena CLI
The raspberry pi was registered to my testing account:
From there, I created a new project folder and created a docker-compose.yml for the raspberry pi. I encountered 2 issues:
- balena.io doesn’t support docker-compose v3, so I set our docker-compose to v2 (not the difficult part)
- mariadb and mysql teams don’t provide any arm docker image, I first used https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-mariadb but I got network connectivity issues. I finally found yobasystems/alpine-mariadb docker image who is working well.
Here is the docker-compose.yml file I used:
version: '2'
services:
db:
image: yobasystems/alpine-mariadb
restart: unless-stopped
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: "rootpassword"
MYSQL_DATABASE: "passbolt"
MYSQL_USER: "passbolt"
MYSQL_PASSWORD: "P4ssb0lt"
volumes:
- database_volume:/var/lib/mysql
expose:
- "3306"
passbolt:
image: anatomicjc/passbolt:latest-ce-multiarch
#Alternatively you can use rootless:
#image: passbolt/passbolt:latest-ce-non-root
restart: unless-stopped
links:
- "db"
environment:
APP_FULL_BASE_URL: https://a-very-long-generated-id.balena-devices.com/
DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_HOST: "db"
DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_USERNAME: "passbolt"
DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_PASSWORD: "P4ssb0lt"
DATASOURCES_DEFAULT_DATABASE: "passbolt"
volumes:
- gpg_volume:/etc/passbolt/gpg
- jwt_volume:/etc/passbolt/jwt
command: ["/usr/bin/wait-for.sh", "-t", "0", "db:3306", "--", "/docker-entrypoint.sh"]
ports:
- 80:80
#ports:
# - 80:80
# - 443:443
#Alternatively for non-root images:
# - 80:8080
# - 443:4433
volumes:
database_volume:
gpg_volume:
jwt_volume:
As you can notice, I used the default balena domain name provided with the instance, and set it as APP_FULL_BASE_URL environment variable.
I just exposed 80/TCP port as the balena default load balancer is searching for a service exposed on port 80.
As it was just a proof-of-concept, I didn’t configured any SMTP server 
but the doc is there: Passbolt Help | Configure email providers
I finally pushed the docker-compose.yml file with the Balena CLI:
$ balena push project-namespace

After that, I was able to monitor the deployment through the Balena dashboard:
And voilà 
:
passbolt and balena.io on Raspberry PI Zero FTW 
I followed these instructions and everything worked. But there was an error when I created the administrator:
General error: 1364 Field 'id' doesn't have a default value
The solution I found here helped: Login failed · Issue #285 · passbolt/passbolt_api · GitHub.
This is awesome @eleimt @AnatomicJC good job!
this is Marc developer advocate from balena.io
Would you like to submit this application to the balenaHub? The hub is a marketplace for IoT applications. I think a lot of people might want to use it on their devices.
Let me know if i can help more
Welcome to passbolt community forum @mpous I discovered Balena with this post and it looks so cool 
I didn’t think we can manage fleet of IoT object like this.
I have some internal stuff to do first but I will have a quicker look about how it works and will let you know.
See you soon 
Keep me updated @AnatomicJC
Hi @mpous
I pushed a first version on balena hub and you should be able to deploy by clicking on this button:
Please enjoy
That’s awesome, thank you.
Hello there,
I just pushed another update. I added a redis container to handle php sessions and a backup container to handle backups.
The backup container is based on rclone docker image. I chose rclone because of the compatibility with so many storage backends (SFTP, FTP, S3, Uptobox, etc, it is crazy).
I created a base backup.sh script with backups made locally once a day but you can override this setting with the BACKUP_INTERVAL variable. You can also restart the backup container to trigger a backup
Feel free to edit it and add the correct rclone command to export them on the external storage of your choice. Have a look to the documentation to configure your own: list of rclone providers
Cheers,
Hello guys,
I will update this message on a regulary basis
FYI, I just pushed an updated version of balena passbolt following last passbolt 3.8.1 release: https://help.passbolt.com/releases/
Please enjoy!
Following latest passbolt release, passbolt 4.0.0 is available as well on balena using the official passbolt docker image
It’s been a while since passbolt was updated on balena
Please enjoy the 4.4.2 version 
This is great news. I am very glad that support continues at Balena. Thanks.
Hi everybody. I saw Russification came out, tell me, will there be an update to Balena Hub?
