TAK Server Docker Helper

Simple scripts to set up a fresh Raspbian 64-bit or Ubuntu Server 64-bit install with TAK Server. The server will generate certs if you want to use TLS.

This is intended to help you spin up a simple TAK Server install on a Raspberry Pi, for anything more extensive you should refer to the server manual.

To use:

Do a fresh Raspbian 64-bit install
Copy the TAK Server docker zip to the user's home directory
Copy all the script and config files in this repo to the user's home directory
Edit the helper-script.conf file and update any values you need to
Run 0-system-setup.sh to install Docker, update the system, and extract the TAK Server, your computer will reboot after this is done
Run 1-build-and-run-containers.sh to build and run the TAK Server and DB containers. The TAK Server will start up whenever your Pi starts up.

If you want to wipe the server and start fresh, delete and re-create the tak-db folder.

Some useful scripts are created in the unzipped TAK Server folder:

script	description
mk-client-cert.sh	Creates a client certificate in tak/certs/files, the .p12 file is the one you need for your device
mk-client-dp.sh	Creates a server connection package for a given user that can be imported into ATAK or iTAK
reload-cert.sh	Restart the TAK Server and load any new certs
create-http-user.sh	Creates a user/password for accessing the HTTP server on port 8080
add-webadmin-role-to-cert.sh	Adds the admin role to an existing cert, allowing the cert holder to connect to the HTTPS server on port 8443
