Bitwarden - Self-hosted password manager
-
@iamthefij said in Bitwarden - Self-hosted password manager:
In contrast, docker exec doesn't create any new container. It runs a process within an existing container. There is no need to clean up any containers after execution.
If you see https://docs.docker.com/engine/api/v1.37/#operation/ContainerExec, it creates an "exec container" and returns the object id. This id is then used to start it at https://docs.docker.com/engine/api/v1.37/#operation/ExecStart. You will notice there is no API to delete this object. This object is only deleted when the main container is removed. Initially, I thought this will not be an issue but in practice, after a cron job runs more than 500 times (which is just 2-3 days), docker starts crawling and causes all sorts of strange problems. There is a github issue somewhere for this and iirc, the docker maintainers said that one should not exec too often.

Unfortunately, that would not get around this issue. Executing bitwarden_rs ldap-sync from a new container (created by docker run) would not have access to the same filesystem, and therefore it would write to a new SQLite database that would immediately be cleaned up.
The Scheduler
runcontainers do have access to the filesystem/local storage by volume mounting. Otherwise, wp cron jobs cannot access wp plugins etc.Also, regardless of above, I am working on a patch to make http access possible.

@girish wow! I had no clue that
execworked that way. TIL! Is there no garbage collection process? Seems strange. My host probably has a bunch of dangling execs. They’d seem like they’d be benign, but I wonder.HTTP access would be a great way to solve this. Happy to help test or debug.

We pushed the app store release today for community apps. I will make a post tomorrow about how to get the community apps published so others can install easily.

Please include how to migrate from an existing (testing) installation, if possible. Thanks!

@iamthefij Oops, this got fixed a while ago. I thought I replied to this thread. You can use the env var
CLOUDRON_APP_HOSTNAMEnow in 4.1. For example,curl http://$CLOUDRON_APP_HOSTNAME:3000works if http is running on port 3000. -
@iamthefij btw, you can set
"minBoxVersion": "4.1.4"in the manifest so that people who are below that version don't try to install the app. -
@fbartels was there a reason for moving the bitwarden image from the COPY statement to a FROM statement at the beginning? I'm picking up LDAP support again now that the hostname is available and I'm getting the binary from a published images as well.
Was it just to avoid pulling when modifying any config values?

@girish Hmm... it doesn't seem to be working correctly.
I'm getting:
Jun 26 17:55:25 thread 'main' panicked at 'Could not authenticate with http://8e50545e-6293-459d-8aa8-5abdb13695dc-ldap_sync:3000. Error { kind: Hyper(Error { kind: Connect, cause: Os { code: 111, kind: ConnectionRefused, message: "Connection refused" } }), url: Some("http://8e50545e-6293-459d-8aa8-5abdb13695dc-ldap_sync:3000/admin/") }', src/bw_admin.rs:62:17It appears that the hostname is the hostname of the
ldap_synccontainer that the cron job spawned? Is that correct? When I open a terminal for the app, it just gives the first part withoutldap_sync, which seems right. -
@iamthefij This is indeed a bug
CLOUDRON_APP_HOSTNAMEis meant to be a constant and should be set to8e50545e-6293-459d-8aa8-5abdb13695dc. For cron jobs, it is setting the env var as the hostname by mistake. -
@iamthefij In
/home/yellowtent/box/src/docker.jsat line 190,`CLOUDRON_APP_HOSTNAME=${name}`,Replace the above as:
`CLOUDRON_APP_HOSTNAME=${app.id}`,Then
systemctl restart box. Does that fix the problem? -
@iamthefij do you mean https://git.cloudron.io/fbartels/bitwardenrs-app/blob/master/Dockerfile#L1 ?
That was so that just a single line needs to be changed when bitwarden is updated.
-
@girish roger. That worked! Now I'm getting some new error from within Bitwarden_rs, which is good and means that it's actually hitting the server!
@fbartels got it. That could also be facilitated using an
ARG.It doesn't matter too much. The difference is really just in caching, but it doesn't look like the Cloudron build servers do caching.

@girish is there anything that might prevent this container from querying LDAP?
I'm getting the following error:
Jun 27 18:30:57 thread 'main' panicked at 'rc=1 (operationsError), dn: "ou=users, dc=cloudron", text: "No such app"', src/main.rs:21:9To verify that it's something to do with the cron container, I generate the config file and cat it to the log in the main application as well as the schedule container. I diffed the two configs and they are identical.
However, when I run the sync script from the terminal attached to the main container, it works correctly. From the scheduled container, I get this error.
Any ideas? I'm actually unable to find out where the "No such app" comes from. It is a pretty generic term, so searching online isn't much help. I did check the
bitwarden_ldap_synccodebase, the Rustldap3codebase, and theboxcodebase, but no luck. -
@iamthefij I think that's the LDAP server not allowing scheduler containers from accessing it. Can you try this - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/commit/22d731f06da98af196c43e6713bf0ce551107fa6 ?
