Consul Couchbase

This Docker container is setup to run Couchbase with Consul for service discovery and health monitoring.

It has also been optimized to run on Joyent's Triton, however it will always also support strait Docker and boot2docker.

Much thanks to Casey Bisson who created the original version.

Running

It can be run on its own simply via:

docker run -d  -p 8400 -p 8500 -p 8600 --name consul progrium/consul -server -bootstrap -ui-dir /ui
docker run -d --name cb1 --link consul:consul -p 8091 corbinu/consul-couchbase
docker run -d --name cb2 --link consul:consul corbinu/consul-couchbase

docker exec -it cb1 couchbase-bootstrap bootstrap

Consul will UI will be available on port mapped to 8500 Couchbase Dashboard will be on port mapped to 8091
