# Arcane
|
||||
|
||||
Web-based Docker management IDE. Main instance on **CT 104** (`192.168.1.40:10002`, `arcane.nuclide.systems`). Manages containers on the local Docker host plus remote CTs via **edge agents**.
|
||||
|
||||
Stack: `/opt/stacks/arcane/docker-compose.yml` on CT 104.
|
||||
Image: `ghcr.io/getarcaneapp/arcane:latest`
|
||||
Auth: OIDC via Pocket ID, admin: `fkrebs@nucli.de`
|
||||

|
||||
## Edge agents
|
||||
|
||||
An edge agent (`ghcr.io/getarcaneapp/arcane-headless:latest`) runs inside each remote CT and connects **outbound** to the main Arcane server via gRPC poll. The main server then manages that CT's Docker.
|
||||
|
||||
### Currently deployed agents
|
||||
|
||||
| CT | Hostname | Compose path | Status |
|
||||
|----|----------|--------------|--------|
|
||||
| CT 104 | docker | *(built-in NUC environment)* | online |
|
||||
| CT 113 | db | `/opt/stacks/db/docker-compose.yml` | online (2026-05-21) |
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding an edge agent to a new CT
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 1 — Create the environment in Arcane** (requires Arcane API or UI access)
|
||||
|
||||
With the admin CLI API key (stored in Arcane DB, regenerate if needed):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Get or create an admin API key — see "Admin API key" section below
|
||||
API_KEY="arc_..."
|
||||
curl -s -X POST -H "X-API-Key: $API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||
"http://192.168.1.40:10002/api/environments" \
|
||||
-d '{"name":"<ctname>","apiUrl":"edge://<ctname>","isEdge":true}'
|
||||
# Note the environment id from the response
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 2 — Generate and wire the AGENT_TOKEN**
|
||||
|
||||
Arcane stores the raw AGENT_TOKEN in `environments.access_token`. Insert it via:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# On PVE host, run: python3 /tmp/arcane-bootstrap.py
|
||||
import argon2, secrets, sqlite3, uuid
|
||||
from datetime import datetime, timezone
|
||||
|
||||
db_path = "/rpool/data/subvol-104-disk-0/opt/stacks/arcane/data/arcane.db"
|
||||
env_id = "<id from step 1>" # paste the environment UUID here
|
||||
|
||||
conn = sqlite3.connect(db_path)
|
||||
raw_token = "arc_" + secrets.token_hex(32)
|
||||
key_prefix = "arc_" + raw_token[4:12]
|
||||
ph = argon2.PasswordHasher(memory_cost=65536, time_cost=3, parallelism=2)
|
||||
key_hash = ph.hash(raw_token)
|
||||
key_id = str(uuid.uuid4())
|
||||
now = datetime.now(timezone.utc).isoformat()
|
||||
|
||||
conn.execute(
|
||||
"INSERT INTO api_keys (id, name, description, key_hash, key_prefix, environment_id, managed_by, created_at, updated_at)"
|
||||
" VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)",
|
||||
(key_id, f"Environment Bootstrap Key - {env_id[:8]}",
|
||||
"Auto-generated key for environment pairing",
|
||||
key_hash, key_prefix, env_id, "system", now, now))
|
||||
conn.execute("UPDATE environments SET access_token=? WHERE id=?", (raw_token, env_id))
|
||||
conn.commit()
|
||||
conn.close()
|
||||
print("AGENT_TOKEN:", raw_token)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 3 — Add the agent to the CT's compose**
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
arcane-agent:
|
||||
image: ghcr.io/getarcaneapp/arcane-headless:latest
|
||||
container_name: arcane-agent
|
||||
restart: unless-stopped
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
|
||||
- ./arcane-agent:/app/data
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
EDGE_AGENT: "true"
|
||||
EDGE_TRANSPORT: poll
|
||||
AGENT_TOKEN: ${ARCANE_AGENT_TOKEN}
|
||||
MANAGER_API_URL: http://192.168.1.40:10002
|
||||
deploy:
|
||||
resources:
|
||||
limits:
|
||||
cpus: "0.5"
|
||||
memory: 256M
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add `ARCANE_AGENT_TOKEN=<raw_token>` to the CT's `.env`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Step 4 — Start and verify**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose up -d arcane-agent
|
||||
docker logs arcane-agent 2>&1 | grep "Edge gRPC tunnel"
|
||||
# Expected: Edge gRPC tunnel connected to manager environment_id=<uuid>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The environment should flip to `online` in `environments.status` within ~5 seconds.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
## When Arcane moves to CT 109
|
||||
|
||||
When Arcane migrates from CT 104 to CT 109 (the planned "observe" LXC):
|
||||
|
||||
1. Update `MANAGER_API_URL` in every edge agent's `.env` to the new CT 109 LAN IP
|
||||
2. Update the Arcane compose `APP_URL` and network bindings
|
||||
3. Update Zoraxy route for `arcane.nuclide.systems` to point to CT 109
|
||||
4. Migrate the SQLite DB: `cp -a /opt/stacks/arcane/data/ <ct109-path>/`
|
||||
5. Regenerate the admin API key (stored in memory, not config) since the DB port changes
|
||||
6. Restart all edge agents with the new `MANAGER_API_URL`
|
||||
|
||||
Arcane environments (NUC, db, shepard) will reconnect automatically once `MANAGER_API_URL` is updated.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Admin API key (non-OIDC access)
|
||||
|
||||
Arcane doesn't store plaintext API keys — use the DB-insert method above when a new admin key is needed. The `python3-argon2` package must be installed on the PVE host (`apt install python3-argon2`).
|
||||
|
||||
The key inserted for CLI use during CT 113 provisioning (`arc_a9695182...`) is linked to `fkrebs` user in the api_keys table. Rotate it after provisioning work is complete by deleting the row:
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
sqlite3 /rpool/data/subvol-104-disk-0/opt/stacks/arcane/data/arcane.db \
|
||||
"DELETE FROM api_keys WHERE name='admin-cli';"
|
||||
```
