Default admin credentials:

Change the admin credentials immediately after first login.

Self-Signed Certificate Notice

This installation uses a self-signed TLS certificate.

A browser SSL warning is expected.

For API calls using curl, you must ignore certificate validation:

curl -k https://<SERVER_IP>:5004

The -k flag tells curl to skip TLS certificate verification.

Example to obtain API token:

curl -k https://<SERVER_IP>:5004/api/v1/auth/login 
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" 
  -d '{"email":"[email protected]","password":"1234"}'

This returns a JSON response containing a token.

Example to obtain API token:

curl -k -i https://<SERVER_IP>:5004/api/v1/<VALID_ENDPOINT> 
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>"

For production environments, replace the self-signed certificate with a trusted SSL certificate (e.g., Let’s Encrypt).

Archivos y directorios importantes

  • Directorio de instalación: /root/peppermint
  • Environment variables (DB credentials, secrets, BASE_URL): /root/peppermint/.env
  • Configuración de Docker Compose: /root/peppermint/docker-compose.yml
  • PostgreSQL persistent data (Docker volume): /var/lib/docker/volumes/pgdata/_data

Habilitar SSL con un dominio

1. Dirija su dominio a la IP del servidor.

2. Editar el /root/peppermint/.env archivo para configurar tu nombre de dominio: BASE_URL=https://your.domain.com

3. Recrear los servicios:

cd /root/peppermint/
docker compose up -d

4. Edit Nginx configs and replace server_name <IP>; con tu dominio (<your-domain>) tanto para bloques HTTP (puerto 80) como HTTPS (puerto 443):

vim /etc/nginx/conf.d/peppermint-client.conf
vim /etc/nginx/conf.d/peppermint-api.conf

5. Instalar Certbot:

apt install -y certbot python3-certbot-nginx

6. Ejecute el siguiente comando para generar un certificado Let's Encrypt válido:

certbot certonly --nginx --non-interactive --agree-tos --email [email protected] -d yourdomain.com

7. Reemplazar las rutas SSL en la configuración de Nginx (sección TLS):

vim /etc/nginx/conf.d/peppermint-client.conf
vim /etc/nginx/conf.d/peppermint-api.conf

# Before:
    # ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/fullchain.pem;
    # ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/privkey.pem;
# After:
    # ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/yourdomain.com/fullchain.pem;
    # ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/yourdomain.com/privkey.pem;

8. Reinicie Nginx para aplicar los cambios:

systemctl restart nginx

9. Abra su navegador y visite: https://yourdomain.com
