## Getting started

It is divided in two main parts, IrisWeb and IrisModules.   

 - IrisWeb is the web application which contains the core of

Iris (web interface, database management, etc). 

 - IrisModules are extensions of the core that allow third parties to process

data via Iris (eg enrich IOCs with MISP and VT, upload and injection of EVTX into Splunk). 

 

IrisWeb can work without any modules though defaults ones are preinstalled. Head to ``Manage > Modules`` in the UI 

to configure and enable them. 



### Running Iris

To ease the installation and upgrades, Iris is shipped in Docker containers. Thanks to Docker compose, 

it can be ready in a few minutes.  



``` bash

#  Clone the iris-web repository

git clone https://github.com/dfir-iris/iris-web.git

cd iris-web



# Checkout to the last tagged version 

git checkout v2.4.7



# Copy the environment file 

cp .env.model .env



# Build the dockers

docker compose build



# Run IRIS 

docker compose up

```



Iris shall be available on the host interface, port 443, protocol HTTPS - ``https://``.  

By default, an ``administrator`` account is created. The password is printed in stdout the very first time Iris is started. It won't be printed anymore after that.  

``WARNING :: post_init :: create_safe_admin :: >>>`` can be searched in the logs of the `webapp` docker to find the password.  

The initial password can be set via the [configuration](https://docs.dfir-iris.org/operations/configuration/).   



Iris is split on 5 Docker services, each with a different role.



- ``app``: The core, including web server, DB management, module management etc.

- ``db``: A PostgresSQL database

- ``RabbitMQ``: A RabbitMQ engine to handle jobs queuing and processing

- ``worker``: Jobs handler relying on RabbitMQ

- ``nginx``: A NGINX reverse proxy



### Configuration

There are three different options for configuring the settings and credentials: Azure Key Vault, Environment Variables and Configuration Files. This is also the order of priority, if a settings is not set it will fall back on the next option.

For all available configuration options see [configuration](https://docs.dfir-iris.org/operations/configuration/).



## Versioning

Starting from version 2.0.0, Iris is following the [Semantic Versioning 2.0](https://semver.org/) guidelines.   

The code ready for production is always tagged with a version number. 

``alpha`` and ``beta`` versions are **not** production-ready.  



Do not use the ``master`` branch in production. 



## Showcase

You can directly try Iris on our [demo instance](https://v200.beta.dfir-iris.org).  

One can also head to [tutorials](https://docs.dfir-iris.org/operations/tutorials/), we've put some videos there.  



## Documentation

A comprehensive documentation is available on [docs.dfir-iris.org](https://docs.dfir-iris.org).



### Upgrades

Please read the release notes when upgrading versions. Most of the time the migrations are handled automatically, but some

changes might require some manual labor depending on the version. 



### API

The API reference is available in the [documentation](https://docs.dfir-iris.org/operations/api/#references) or [documentation repository](https://github.com/dfir-iris/iris-doc-src).



## Help

You can reach us on [Discord](https://discord.gg/76tM6QUJza) or by [mail](mailto:[email protected]) if you have any question, issue or idea!   

We are also on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/dfir_iris) and [Matrix](https://matrix.to/#/#dfir-iris:matrix.org).  



## Considerations

Iris is still in its early stage. It can already be used in production, but please set backups of the database and DO NOT expose the interface on the Internet. We highly recommend using a private dedicated and secured network.
