Satis Server provides ready to use solution for self-hosted repository of Composer packages, it is distributed as a lightweight Docker image based on Alpine Linux. With the power of Satis, Composer and WebHook projects, it provides a set of powerful tools:

• Private, self-hosted Composer repository with unlimited private and open-source packages and support for Git, Mercurial, and Subversion.
• API - HTTP API with several endpoints allowing you to add and remove packages, build one single package or whole repository, list packages with last build date information, show package details, dump Satis configuration file. Access to the API can be restricted to selected subnetwork mask.
• Webhook handler - bind HTTP PUSH event in GitHub, GitLab or Beanstalk to automatically rebuild Satis index just after commit is made. This HTTP endpoint can be secured with a pre-shared key.
• Scheduled builds - periodically rebuild whole Satis repository, based on crontab expression.
• Command-line interface - manage Satis Server from command-line, all Satis API endpoints are available as shell commands.
• Build notifier - send message to Slack or HipChat channel when repository or single package is rebuilt.
• HTTPs support.

Use automated install script, that pulls Docker image, creates directory structure and configuration files and installs start/stop commands for you, by executing below command. If you prefer to do it manually - proceed with usage instructions, as Docker image will download automatically on first usage.

export SATIS_SERVER_VERSION=1.1
curl -L "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lukaszlach/satis-server/$SATIS_SERVER_VERSION/install" | bash

You will see "satis-server installed and running" message after installation is done, satis.json file is created under /etc/satis (if did not exist before), this is also repository build directory where output JSON/ZIP files are stored. Configuration directory /etc/satis-server holds satis-server.conf that allows you to modify settings.

Installation process also adds satis-server-start and satis-server-stop management commands and satis-server-help command.

You can use the same commands to upgrade Satis Server, all your configuration values, repository settings and packages will be preserved. Just change SATIS_SERVER_VERSION to desired version.

You need to have Docker installed to run this project.

git clone https://github.com/lukaszlach/satis-server.git satis-server/
cd satis-server/
# build the "lukaszlach/satis-server:latest" image
make

If you have installed Satis Server using automated install script there are satis-server-start and satis-server-stop commands already available on your server, below section covers manual installations.

In order to properly run Satis Server Docker container you need to pass at least one volume:

• (required) directory where satis.json configuration is kept and where built files will be stored, i.e. /etc/satis
• (optional) satis-server configuration directory, allows adding your own SSH key to use with private repositories and handle HTTPs, i.e. /etc/satis-server
• (optional) satis-server working directory where current status is kept, i.e. /var/satis-server

In case /etc/satis/satis.json does not exist in the container it will be created with empty repository settings.

If you do not bind working directory volume, packages "last updated" information displayed by HTTP endpoints will be missing after Docker container is restarted. However, they can be always regenerated by rebuilding the repository or a single package.

Container exposes Satis API on ports 80 and 443, second one is reachable only with configured HTTPs.

Below command runs Satis Server listening on port 8080:

docker run -d \
    -p 8080:80 \
    -v /etc/satis:/etc/satis/ \
    -v /etc/satis-server/:/etc/satis-server/ \
    -v /var/satis-server/:/var/satis-server/ \
    --name satis_server \
    lukaszlach/satis-server:latest

You can also try an example docker-compose.yml file provided in this repository:

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml.example up -d

Run docker logs satis_server -f to monitor logs or docker stop satis_server to stop the container.

You can always view the documentation you are currently reading by calling docker run --rm lukaszlach/satis-server:latest help

Automated installation creates configuration file under /etc/satis-server/satis-server.conf that is used by docker-compose.yml file from the same directory to start and stop the service, environment variables are passes automatically. This file has simple FIELD=value structure, currently below options are recognized:

• PORT - TCP port on which Satis API will listen on, default 8080
• SSL_PORT - default 443
• REBUILD_AT - see Scheduled builds
• PUSH_SECRET - see Securing with a pre-shared key
• API_ALLOW - see Restricting access to API
• NOTIFY_DEBUG - set to 1 to include extra information in notifications
• NOTIFY_HIPCHAT and HIPCHAT_* variables - see Build notifier » HipChat
• NOTIFY_SLACK and SLACK_* variables - see Build notifier » Slack

satis-server.conf.example file with example configuration is available in root directory of this repository.

In order to use private repositories (including GitHub) you have to provide SSH key that both Composer and Satis will use to fetch repository contents.

SSH key should be available under /etc/satis-server/ssh/id_rsa file. If runnning manually you can do it with -v /etc/satis-server:/etc/satis-server to mount the whole config directory or -v /path/to/id_rsa:/etc/satis-server/ssh/id_rsa to mount this single file only.

If you want to serve Satis API and webhook handler through HTTPs you need to place cert.pem and key.pem files inside /etc/satis-server/https/ configuration directory. Existence of these files is detected automatically and after restart satis-server starts working over SSL.

You can easily configure Satis Server to automatically rebuild the whole Satis repository once a day or every few hours/minutes.

For automated installation you have to edit REBUILD_AT in /etc/satis-server/satis-server.conf, when running Docker image manually pass SATIS_REBUILD_AT environment variable i.e. -e SATIS_REBUILD_AT="1 0 * * *" to rebuild at one minute past midnight (00:01) every day. The value must be a valid crontab expression.

Point Satis Server repository in your composer.json and require your packages by name, exactly as public packages.

{
    "repositories": [
        {"type": "composer", "url": "https://your-server/"}
    ],
    "require": {
        "org/foo": "~1.0",
        "org/bar": "dev-master",
        "php-amqplib/php-amqplib": "v2.6.3"
    }
}

For more details read Composer documentation on how to modify composer.json to work with your private repository.

Such change in composer.json requires composer update command to be executed in order to update composer.lock file.

If Satis Server does not work over HTTPs you need to set secure-http to false.

All HTTP endpoints are executing shell command underneath and return 200 OK in case of success or 500 Internal Server Error otherwise. Both application/x-www-form-urlencoded and application/json payloads are properly handled by all endpoints.

Raw command outputs are returned, sometimes including shell colors but this is useful when running on CI environments and sending HTTP requests from command-line.

Since Satis repository files can be found under / URL path, Satis API endpoints are available under /api.

PUSH events handler, returns immediately and does not wait for build to finish.

$ curl -sS -d'url=https://github.com/php-amqplib/php-amqplib' http://your-server:8080/api/push
$ curl -sS -d'{"repository":{"url":"https://github.com/php-amqplib/php-amqplib"}}' -H'Content-Type: application/json' http://your-server:8080/api/push

Point http://your-server:8080/api/push as an URL to handle PUSH events on your repository.

As this endpoint is meant to be called by external services, you can protect it with a pre-shared key that will be required to call /api/push endpoint, it looks for secret query parameter so your final URL should look like this: http://your-server:8080/api/push?secret=<PRE_SHARED_KEY>.

To set the pre-shared key, either modify PUSH_SECRET variable in /etc/satis-server/satis-server.conf or pass it's value via environment variable: -e PUSH_SECRET=d5a7c0d0c897665588cd0844744e3109.

See below links for documentation how PUSH events work and how to configure them:

• GitHub - https://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/#pushevent
• GitLab - https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/user/project/integrations/webhooks.html#push-events
• Beanstalk - http://support.beanstalkapp.com/article/931-classic-webhooks-integration

All Satis API endpoints can be restricted to specific subnetwork, except for /api/push which can be secured using pre-shard key.

By default API is opened for everyone, meaning 0.0.0.0/0. To restrict access, set API_ALLOW to a valid subnetwork mask in CIDR notation. If you are running Docker image manually, pass API_ALLOW environment variable: -e API_ALLOW=192.168.1.0/24.

All Satis API commands are available as shell commands inside the container. See available commands and example usages below.

$ docker exec -it satis_server sh
/satis-server # satis-<TAB><TAB>
satis-add             satis-build-all       satis-list            satis-server
satis-build           satis-dump            satis-remove          satis-show
satis-server-version  satis-server-help


/satis-server # satis-show "https://github.com/php-amqplib/php-amqplib"

$ docker exec satis_server satis-show "https://github.com/php-amqplib/php-amqplib"

$ alias satis-server='docker exec satis_server'
$ satis-server satis-show "https://github.com/php-amqplib/php-amqplib"

Notifications are sent before and after single package or the whole repository is built. To enable them you have to either edit /etc/satis-server/satis-server.conf file for automated installation or pass values as environment variables to Docker, i.e. -e NOTIFY_HIPCHAT=1 -e ....

Set NOTIFY_HIPCHAT=1 to enable HipChat notifications, you will also have to provide:

• HIPCHAT_API - base URL of your HipChat API, including trailing slash
• HIPCHAT_ROOM - room ID
• HIPCHAT_TOKEN - room notification token

Set NOTIFY_SLACK=1 to enable Slack notifications, you will also have to provide:

• SLACK_URL - "Incoming WebHook" URL
• SLACK_ROOM - room name

So you can just remove what is not needed and replace rest with your values.
