My Docker Setup

Scripting my way into the Docker world. Was unable to find a good tutorial on using and managing containers so this is what made sense to me based on practicing with docker-compose. I am still very 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

apt install git bash git clone https://github.com/hyperling/docker /opt/Docker source /opt/Docker/source.env install.sh create.sh PROJECT_NAME vi /opt/Docker/Config/PROJECT_NAME/docker-compose.yml 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's needed is to rsync /opt/Docker and run start.sh on the new server. That's my opinion though, if someone else uses this then they can use /var/.

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.
