# My Docker Setup
Scripting my way into the Docker world.
I was unable to find a good tutorial on using and managing containers so this is what made sense to me based on practice with `docker-compose`.
I am still new to Docker and am likely to make mistakes, but you're welcome to learn with me. ;)

## Disclaimer
Currently the project only focuses on `apt` based operating systems.

## How To Use
Most of these commands benefit from being root. Something like a `sudo su -` if you feel comfortable with it.
Otherwise be aware that using sudo may cause file permission conflicts when interacting with the configuration files and folders.

Install the project dependencies.
```
apt install git bash
```

Clone the project.
```
git clone https://github.com/hyperling/docker /opt/Docker
```

Load the environment variables.
```
source /opt/Docker/source.env
```

Install docker to the system.
```
install.sh
```

Create an area to add a new product.
```
create.sh PROJECT_NAME
```

Edit the project's details.
```
vi /opt/Docker/Config/PROJECT_NAME/docker-compose.yml
```

Start all of the docker projects.
```
start.sh
```

Cross your fingers and hope to profit!

## Folders

### Config
Compose projects are set up here. Each folder should have a `docker-compose.yml` file set up.

### Volumes
The data of the files go here if the Config is done correctly.
I think this should be easier to remember than `/var/lib/docker/volumes` when it comes time for migrations.
Hopefully all that'd be needed is to rsync `/opt/Docker` and run `install.sh` and then `start.sh` on the new server.
That's my opinion though, if someone else uses this then they are welcome to place it where they'd like.

### bin
Scripts to help make life easier. Some are pretty basic, but others do nice things like handle the container IDs.
* `install.sh` : Install dependencies on a new server with apt.
* `create.sh` : Create a new folder with the needed yml file.
* `start.sh` : Start all compose containers.
* `stop.sh` : Stop all compose containers.
* `get_logs.sh` : Create log files rather than using the `docker log` command or searching in /var/whatever.
* `uninstall.sh` : If something goes wrong and you'd like to start from scratch without provisioning a new server then this should do the job.
