# Authorization and cache proxy for elasticsearch

## Installation

This proxy is based on an [openresty](https://hub.docker.com/r/openresty/openresty/) image.

## Environment variables

In order to run the code, some environment variables are needed. They are specified in the `template.env` file at the root of the project.

For a local deployment:

1. `cp template.env .env`
2. Edit .env according to the chosen configuration

The values will be read from the file by default when running with docker.

## Running the proxy

```bash
# build
docker-compose build

# deploy
docker-compose up [-d]

# build and deploy
docker-compose up --build [-d]
```
