There are two kinds of Foreman images available for consumption right now:
- lzap/fedora-foreman-git-stable - "development" setup
- lzap/fedora-foreman-prod-stable - "production" setup
The first one offers installation from sources (from git) using Rubygems. It is running Rails in Webrick (PRODUCTION mode) with SQLite3. It is possible to attach to Docker console (-t) to see the logs.
The latter is meant for production use case - it contains full pre-configured installation of Foreman web application. During startup, certificates are regenerated using the correct hostname provided. Note these images do not contain smart-proxy, Docker containers are lightweight and for only one process.
Both are using Fedora 19 as a backend image.
docker run -p 3333:3000 -i -t lzap/fedora-foreman-git-stable:1.3.1
You should see webrick running on the foreground now, visit http://localhost:3333 (admin/changeme) and to stop the server use ctrl+c. Note that this kind of setup is not for production use, for this reason Foreman web app spawns in the foreground. Please ignore the fact that Rails stack is running under "production" setup, there is no point of running in "development" mode since it is not possible to edit files in a running container.
If you do not provide -i -t options, ctrl-c will not work and therefore you
need to kill the process using ps and kill docker commands.
docker ps
docker kill container_id
This setup can be used for production as it is was installed using our official installer (foreman-installer) and content is being served by apache2 httpd daemon (through passenger).
TBD
First of all we need to build "base" image that contains all necessary requirements for setup. All versions are based on this image, thus much smaller.
pushd fedora-foreman-stable-git
docker build -t YOURNAME/fedora-foreman-git-base:f19 .
popd
Now we want to build Foreman on top of that image. Before running that, check the version defined in the Dockerfile (e.g. 1.3.1) and use the very same image tag.
pushd fedora-foreman-git-stable
vim Dockerfile
docker build -t YOURNAME/fedora-foreman-git-stable:1.3.1 .
docker push YOURNAME/fedora-foreman-git-stable
popd
If you want to get a shell to investigate the environment, do something like:
docker run -p 3333:3000 -i -entrypoint='/bin/bash' -t lzap/fedora-foreman-stable-XYZ
- Push "latest" tags for all repos
- Setup automated build via Github and Index building service
- Create new fedora-foreman-production puppetized setup (need to resolve hostname issue)
