# How to set up Alfresco Transform Service
By default, the _Alfresco Transform Service_ (from now ATS) is not included in the basic configuration of the projects generated making use of the Alfresco
SDK archetypes.
ATS is only supported in ACS Enterprise and it is distributed as a composition of Docker containers. The docker images required for ATS are available in the
private Alfresco [Quay.io](https://quay.io/) docker registry. You'll need your [Quay.io](https://quay.io/) account credentials to access the Docker images.
If you don't already have these credentials, contact [Alfresco Support](https://support.alfresco.com/).
In order to properly configure ATS in a project generated using the Alfresco SDK archetypes it is required to execute 2 steps:
1. Add the containers that conform ATS to the Docker compose file.
2. Configure the properties that are required to properly set up ATS.
## Adding the new containers
* Locate the Docker compose file (usually at `PROJECT_ROOT_PATH/docker/docker-compose.yml`) and add the containers that conform ATS (`transform-router`,
`alfresco-pdf-renderer`, `imagemagick`, `libreoffice`, `tika`, `shared-file-store` and `activemq`):
```
services:
...
transform-router:
image: quay.io/alfresco/alfresco-transform-router:0.5.0
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"
ACTIVEMQ_URL: "nio://activemq:61616"
IMAGEMAGICK_URL: "http://imagemagick:8090"
PDF_RENDERER_URL: "http://alfresco-pdf-renderer:8090"
LIBREOFFICE_URL: "http://libreoffice:8090"
TIKA_URL: "http://tika:8090"
FILE_STORE_URL: "http://shared-file-store:8099/alfresco/api/-default-/private/sfs/versions/1/file"
links:
- activemq
alfresco-pdf-renderer:
image: quay.io/alfresco/alfresco-pdf-renderer:2.0.8
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"
FILE_STORE_URL: "http://shared-file-store:8099/alfresco/api/-default-/private/sfs/versions/1/file"
ports:
- 8090:8090
imagemagick:
image: quay.io/alfresco/alfresco-imagemagick:2.0.8
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"
FILE_STORE_URL: "http://shared-file-store:8099/alfresco/api/-default-/private/sfs/versions/1/file"
ports:
- 8091:8090
libreoffice:
image: quay.io/alfresco/alfresco-libreoffice:2.0.8
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"
FILE_STORE_URL: "http://shared-file-store:8099/alfresco/api/-default-/private/sfs/versions/1/file"
ports:
- 8092:8090
tika:
image: quay.io/alfresco/alfresco-tika:2.0.8
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"
FILE_STORE_URL: "http://shared-file-store:8099/alfresco/api/-default-/private/sfs/versions/1/file"
ports:
- 8093:8090
shared-file-store:
image: alfresco/alfresco-shared-file-store:0.5.1
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"
scheduler.content.age.millis: 86400000
scheduler.cleanup.interval: 86400000
ports:
- 8099:8099
volumes:
- shared-file-store-volume:/tmp/Alfresco/sfs
activemq:
image: alfresco/alfresco-activemq:5.15.6
ports:
- 8161:8161 # Web Console
- 5672:5672 # AMQP
- 61616:61616 # OpenWire
- 61613:61613 # STOMP
...
```
* Check that you haven't any port conflict with other services in the Docker compose file.
* Add the new volume required for the shared file store (`alfresco/alfresco-shared-file-store`) in the Docker compose file:
```
volumes:
...
shared-file-store-volume:
driver_opts:
type: tmpfs
device: tmpfs
```
## Adding the required configuration
* Locate the _Alfresco global properties_ file for docker (usually at `PROJECT_ROOT_PATH/PROJECT_ARTIFACT_ID-platform-docker/src/main/docker/alfresco-global.properties`)
and add the ATS configuration properties:
```
# Alfresco Transform Service
alfresco-pdf-renderer.url=http://alfresco-pdf-renderer:8090/
jodconverter.url=http://libreoffice:8090/
img.url=http://imagemagick:8090/
tika.url=http://tika:8090/
sfs.url=http://shared-file-store:8099/
local.transform.service.enabled=true
transform.service.enabled=true
messaging.broker.url=failover:(nio://activemq:61616)?timeout=3000&jms.useCompression=true
```
* Remove the old value of the property `messaging.broker.url` in the same `alfresco-global.properties` file.
Once this 2 modifications are done, rebuild and restart all the services (`run.sh/run.bat build_start`) and ACS will use ATS to execute remote transformations
asynchronously whenever possible.
