Is it possible to use custom templates in Lizmap-Docker?

[skvo1977]

Hello!

I'm using Lizmap 3.5 with Docker on Ubuntu Server 20.04.
And I have a question

Сan i use custom templates as described in documentation here ? - https://docs.lizmap.com/current/en/publish/customization/template.html
And where should the template files be placed in this case?
Do I need to add a folder "var/themes/default" in section "volumes" for "lizmap"- servieces in docker-compose file?

Thanks you.

Hi!
Yes, please try to add - ${LIZMAP_DIR}/var/lizmap-themes-default:/www/lizmap/var/themes/default after :
https://github.com/3liz/lizmap-docker-compose/blob/master/docker-compose.yml#L17

And tell us if it works. If it is ok, could you please make a Pull Request?

Thank you very much!
It works.
I'll try to make a pull request, but this will be my first time. So sorry if this isn't quite correct. :)

I'm sorry. I reopen this topic because I find error in the work of the administration interface after changes.
My changes:
I change docker-compose.yml - add new line ${LIZMAP_DIR}/var/lizmap-themes-default:/www/lizmap/var/themes/default
Copy only modified template main.tpl in ${LIZMAP_DIR}/var/lizmap-themes-default/view
The map view interface work correct.
But, when I go to administration interface I have this error "Error 500. A technical error has occured. Sorry for this trouble."

The login form have this view:

In log-files in /lizmap/www/var/log/errors.log I see
"2022-06-16 14:51:11 10.0.2.2 error 2022-06-16 14:51:11 [18] Unknown module in the selector "jauth~login:out@classic" /www/lib/jelix/core/selector/jSelectorAct.class.php 70"

In log-files in /lizmap/var/log/nginx/lizmap_access.log

If I delete line about lizmap-themes-default in docker-compose.yml - all work correct.

It appears that there is some content needed in the directory required for lizmap to run properly. (Lizmap is not fully docker friendly yet :-/).

My guess is that you will have to modify the docker-compose file to fit your needs: i.e explicitely mount the files/dir required for your needs.

Thank you.
I found what files were needed for the administration interface.
Everything is working correctly now :)

@skvo1977 Could you change your PR accordingly? Thanks.

Hello there. I find why this issue is triggered.

Adding the following line will erase some content in lizmap/var/themes/default folder :
- ${LIZMAP_DIR}/var/lizmap-themes-default:/www/lizmap/var/themes/default

I instead added this line - ${LIZMAP_DIR}/var/lizmap-themes-default/view:/www/lizmap/var/themes/default/view and everything is working fine.

I may need to add a line for every modules I want to rewrite, but it's not a problem for me.

If you have a better solution I'll take it :)

With the image of Lizmap 3.6 and higher, there is no more static files into lizmap/var, so you can mount /www/lizmap/var/themes/default.
