My Docker Setup

Decided to organize and script 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 Docker-Compose.

How To Use

git clone https://github.com/hyperling/docker /opt/Docker

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.
