# Nextcloud All-in-One `mastercontainer` Container
|
|
|
|
This folder contains the OCI/Docker container definition, along with associated resources and
|
|
configuration files, for building the `mastercontainer` as part of the Nextcloud All-in-One
|
|
project. This container hosts [the Nextcloud All-in-One management portal and API](
|
|
https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/tree/main/php)[^app], and a dedicated PHP environment
|
|
for it (which is completely independent of the Nextcloud Server).
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The mastercontainer acts as the central orchestration service for the deployment and management
|
|
of all other containers in the Nextcloud All-in-One stack. It hosts:
|
|
|
|
- A dedicated PHP SAPI/backend (php-fpm) for AIO itself (not Nextcloud Server)
|
|
- An Apache service for accessing the AIO frontend via a cleartext HTTP VirtualHost on
|
|
8000/tcp as well as a self-signed HTTPS VirtualHost on 8080/tcp
|
|
- A Caddy reverse proxy service for accessing the AIO frontend (optionally) via HTTPS with a
|
|
valid certificate on 8443/tcp.
|
|
- Miscellaneous support services specific to AIO (backup management, health checks, etc.)
|
|
|
|
## Key Responsibilities
|
|
|
|
- Orchestrates the deployment and lifecycle of all Nextcloud service containers
|
|
- Handles initial setup and container configuration
|
|
- Coordinates image updates
|
|
- Monitors general system health
|
|
|
|
It triggers the initial installation and ensures the smooth operation of the Nextcloud
|
|
All-in-One stack.
|
|
|
|
## Contents
|
|
|
|
- **Dockerfile**: Instructions for building the mastercontainer image.
|
|
- **Entrypoint script**: The `start.sh` script is used for container initialization and runtime
|
|
configuration before starting supervisord.
|
|
- **Nextcloud All-in-One Controller App**: The core AIO orchestrator that handles configuration
|
|
and settings for the containers.
|
|
- **Supervisor**: The `supervisord.conf` file defines the long-running services hosted within
|
|
the container (php-fpm, cron, etc.)
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
This container should be used as the trigger image when deploying the Nextcloud All-in-One
|
|
stack in a Docker or other OCI-compliant container environment. For detailed deployment
|
|
instructions, refer to the [project documentation](
|
|
https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one).
