Help to bring up fonoster docker environment

[txrubel]

Hello,

This is really an awesome project. I have built this fonoster docker image and running this in my laptop. Everything looks good. But now I am a bit stuck on, how should I use the fonoster cli tool for my own environment.

I want to create some project, provider and number for my own environment as describe here.

Could you please help me on this? is there any doc on it?

Thanks

Did you use the docker-in-docker installer?

The important thing is to identify the correct endpoint information and disable TLS on the client-side(by default TLS is disabled on the server). To connect to the local instance you need to:

First, find your credentials at $(pwd)/fonoster/config. It will look like this:

{
   "accessKeyId":"fonoster",
   "accessKeySecret":"eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
}

Next, you must disable TLS on the client-side by setting the environment variable ALLOW_INSECURE to true.

Finally, connect your CLI using the following localhost:50051 as the endpoint.

Dear @psanders, Thanks a lot for your quick response

yeah I am using the docker-in-docker installation.

Found all credentials. I will check them with AS_ALLOW_INSECURE and let you know all updates.

I see how that might be confusing (we definitely need to add a guide for this). Since your Fonoster instance has no TLS endpoint you need to disable TLS on the client too. In Linux/Osx you will do something like this:

ALLOW_INSECURE=true fonoster auth:login 

Or

export ALLOW_INSECURE=true
fonoster auth:login

Just wanted to share we needed to use credentials in file config/user_credentials

Hey,

I want to be able to "call my web app" comprising STT and TTS services and Fonoster seems to be built for exactly that (and Asterisk is giving my a hard time). For regulatory reasons, all services must run on premise.

So I installed Fonoster on Docker locally (on macOS) as described in docker/README.md -- so using defaults only.
That seems to have worked and ended with the repeating log line 🔔 [INFO]: Waiting for SIP Proxy to be ready... 🕐 (I guess that's normal without further configuration).

Then, I tried logging in (from outside of Docker) as suggested above - expect using

1. localhost instead of the Docker host IP (because the container's port is exposed) and
2. port 51051 instead 50051 because the default seems to have changed since the original question.

However, I receive the following error

Access your Fonoster infrastructure

@psanders Did I do anything wrong or miss anything? All the documentation I could find so far assumes using Fonoster as SaaS. Is there a specific guide than the one I mentioned above for setting up Fonoster Community Edition locally?

Thanks in advance and for your work on an open-source Twilio alternative! 💪
