CVE Search Docker

General

In the root of this repo there is a docker-compose.yml file that can be used to build and run the required containers for CVE Search.

You will need to install docker compose (V2) in order to perform this option.

Simply clone the repo, move into the root of the cloned repo and run the command:

docker compose up 

The first time the mongodb container is started the database will be populated from the mongodb dump. This might take a minute or two. During the population the webinterface might have difficulty establishing connection to the mongodb. Once done populating the connection should be restored automatically and the
webserver should function normally.

The cve_search instance should be available under https://localhost

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
