Aurora docker

Dockerfiles to run aurora in a docker environment with docker-compose. By default the source directory is not mounted as volume, so you'll have to build the aurora dockerfile every time you change something in the source.

This was done like this, because the dockerfile changes settings files that where (and propably shouldn't) committed to the version control.

Setup

• Install docker and Compose

• Clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/sepal/aurora_docker.git

• Go into the cloned repo: cd aurora_docker

• Clone the aurora source: git clone https://github.com/martflu/aurora.git aurora/source

• Create env file for the database in a new dir called config. The file should look like this: POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecret Example using pwgen:

# Create the config dir
mkdir config
# Create one password with 20 characters
echo POSTGRES_PASSWORD=`pwgen -n -s -y 20 1` > config/password.env

• Bootstrap everything and run it in the background: docker-compose up -d

• Setup the database: docker-compose run aurora python manage.py migrate

• Collect all static files: docker-compose run aurora python manage.py collectstatic

• Restart the containers, so that aurora starts using the newly created database schema: docker-compose restart

• Aurora should now run under the port 8080. If you are using docker-machine (Mac Os X & Windows) you might need to get your ip first: docker-machine ip.

Howto?

All commands you would run on you local host or in a vagrant environment can be also run in the container. Just prefix them with docker-compose run aurora . Here are some examples:

Run the tests

• docker-compose run aurora python manage.py test

Login into the aurora container

• docker-compose run aurora bash If you need vim or any other tool update the source first: apt-get update. Now you can install them using apt: apt-get install -y vim

Create demo data:

• docker-compose run aurora python manage.py populate_demo_data

Rebuild the aurora container:

• docker-compose stop
• docker-compose rm aurora answer with y
• docker-compose build
• docker-compose up -d All data is kept, so no need to run migrate or anything else again.

Cleanup

You might notice that compose runs a new container for every docker-compose run if you list all containers using docker ps -a. You clean up all the dead containers using: docker ps -a | grep _run | awk '{print $1}' | xargs docker rm
