Docker Compose (standalone)

Prefer to skip Ansible and drive Docker Compose yourself? The same colander-ansible repository ships a self-service docker/ folder: pick only the components you need, start the full stack in one command, or hand it to your own provisioning tool.

This is a lighter alternative to the Deployment procedure above: no dedicated server setup, no colander system user, no Ansible inventory. You run docker compose directly, on any machine that has Docker installed.

Still your responsibility

This mode does not provision a server, set up backups, or manage upgrades for you, unlike the Ansible playbooks. Treat it as a starting point and review the generated configuration before exposing it to the Internet.

Get the compose files​

Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/PiRogueToolSuite/colander-ansible.git
cd colander-ansible/docker

Copy the default .env file and adjust it to your needs (domains, image versions, volume paths, secrets). It is commented and self-explanatory.

Start only what you need​

Each tool has its own compose file, so you can run it on its own:

Colander only
docker compose -f compose-colander.yml up -d

Colander answers on http://localhost:5000, or https://colander.local:4443 if you add colander.local to your hosts file.

Threatr only
docker compose -f compose-threatr.yml up -d
Mandolin only
docker compose -f compose-mandolin.yml up -d
CyberChef only
docker compose -f compose-cyberchef.yml up -d

Combine any of them with several -f flags for an "à la carte" stack:

Colander + Threatr
docker compose -f compose-colander.yml -f compose-threatr.yml up -d

Start the whole stack​

Everything, production-style
docker compose up -d

If you don't have a domain name yet, or can't obtain a Let's Encrypt certificate, use the development override instead. It also generates a self-signed certificate and exposes the Traefik dashboard:

Everything, with a self-signed certificate
docker compose -f compose-dev.yml up -d

Once it is up, you get:

  • Colander or https://colander.local:4443
  • Threatr or https://threatr.local:4443
  • CyberChef or https://cyberchef.local:4443
  • Traefik dashboard (with compose-dev.yml only): http://localhost:8080

Add the *.local hostnames above to your /etc/hosts file to use them.

Connect Colander to Threatr​

Follow the same steps as the Ansible deployment, see the "Connecting Colander to Threatr" section of the Deployment page.

Stop everything​

Stop the stack you started
docker compose stop          # or add -f <file> to match what you started with
