Aloes docker

Compose every dependencies needed to get a fully working Aloes network

Install docker

Docs

Install docker-compose

Docs

Run as non-root user

sudo groupadd docker
sudo usermod -aG docker <non-root user>

Enable autorestart at boot

sudo systemctl enable docker.service

Solve "real" ip issues

Many developers using nginx inside docker uncountered this issue

Update hosts file to point your servername to the loopback network ( not sure it helped ).

Setup

Manually :

• Create .env at root

• Create .env.local and/or .env in ./config/device-manager/

or using helper :

chmod a+x ./aloes.sh

./aloes.sh --command create

./aloes.sh -c create -e local

If you intend to run in local mode ( no domain redirection ), you just have to configure environment variables and config files.

Create HTTPS certificates

• First you have to configure properly PROXY_SERVER_HOST and PROXY_DOMAIN in .env.

Using helper, after creating environment variables, you will be asked to generate SSL certs too :

./aloes.sh -c create --env production

Backup and restore MongoDB

chmod a+x ./config/mongo/mongodump.sh
./config/mongo/mongodump.sh -db aloes_test -c aloes-docker_mongo_1 -u aloes --password example

chmod a+x ./config/mongo/mongorestore.sh
./config/mongo/mongorestore.sh -d aloes_test -db aloes_test -c aloes-docker_mongo_1 -u aloes -p example

Backup and restore InfluxDB

chmod a+x ./config/influx/influxdump.sh
./config/influx/influxdump.sh -db aloes_test -c aloes-docker_influxdb_1 -u aloes --password example

chmod a+x ./config/influx/influxrestore.sh
./config/influx/influxrestore.sh -d aloes_test -db aloes_test -c aloes-docker_influxdb_1 -u aloes -p example

Backup and restore Redis

chmod a+x ./config/redis/redisdump.sh
./config/redis/redisdump.sh -c aloes-docker_redis_1 -d /data

chmod a+x ./config/redis/redisrestore.sh
./config/redis/redisrestore.sh -s ./dump.rdb -c aloes-docker_redis_1 -d /data -p example

Display config

docker-compose config

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml config

or using helper :

./test-conf.sh

./test-conf.sh -e production

Build

docker-compose --compatibility build

docker-compose --compatibility -f docker-compose.yml build

docker-compose  -f docker-compose.yml build <service_name>

docker-compose  -f docker-compose.yml --no-deps --build <service_name> up

or using helper :

./aloes.sh --command build

./aloes.sh -c build --env production

./aloes.sh -c build -e local --service <service_name>

Start

docker-compose --compatibility up

docker-compose --compatibility up -d

docker-compose --compatibility -f docker-compose.yml up -d

or using helper :

./aloes.sh -c start

./aloes.sh -c start -e production

./aloes.sh -c start -e local -s <service_name>

Stop

docker-compose --compatibility down

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml down

or using helper :

./aloes.sh -c stop

./aloes.sh -c stop -e production

./aloes.sh -c stop -e local -s <service_name>

Monitor

docker-compose --compatibility logs --follow --tail="100"

docker-compose --compatibility -f docker-compose.yml logs --follow --tail="100"

or using helper :

./aloes.sh -c log

./aloes.sh -c log -e production

./aloes.sh -c log -e local -s proxy

Tips

On Mac OS in order to use envsubst, one step is required :

brew install gettext
brew link --force gettext 

TODO

• Replicate Mongo and Redis servers

• Use docker swarm to deploy on several machines

• Use aloes.sh to configure dynamically docker-compose services ?
