SchildiChat Web Docker Image

SchildiChat is an Element-based Matrix client that allows users to log in to a compatible homeserver using a web browser.

This repository provides a Docker container that repackages the current release of SchildiChat Desktop with Nginx for convenient deployment by homeserver administrators. All credits for the actual application go to the developers of SchildiChat.

Running with Docker

Directly with Docker:

  1. Pull the Docker image:

    docker pull tcpipuk/schildichat-web:latest
  2. Download the default config.json:

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SchildiChat/schildichat-desktop/master/configs/sc/config.json
  3. Edit the config.json to match the configuration of your homeserver.

  4. Run the Docker container, mapping the config.json into the container:

    docker run -d -p 58008:80 -v $(pwd)/config.json:/usr/share/nginx/html/config.json tcpipuk/schildichat-web:latest

With Docker Compose:

  1. Create a docker-compose.yml file with the following content:

    version: '3'
    
    services:
      schildichat-web:
        image: tcpipuk/schildichat-web:latest
        ports:
          - "58008:80"
        volumes:
          - ./config.json:/usr/share/nginx/html/config.json
  2. Download the default config.json:

    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SchildiChat/schildichat-desktop/master/configs/sc/config.json
  3. Edit the config.json to match the configuration of your homeserver.

  4. Start the service with Docker Compose:

    docker compose up -d

HTTPS Configuration

The examples above serve SchildiChat over HTTP on port 58008 by default. If you wish to use HTTPS, it's recommended to place this container behind a reverse-proxy like Nginx. Below is an example Nginx configuration:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name your-domain.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:58008;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    }

    # SSL configuration
    # listen 443 ssl;
    # ssl_certificate /path/to/your/certificate.crt;
    # ssl_certificate_key /path/to/your/private/key.key;
    # ... other SSL settings ...
}
