Starting docker containers - docker

I have a docker-compose.yml file that starts two services: amazon/dynamodb-local on 8000 port and django-service. django-service runs tests that are dependent on dynamodb-local.
Here is working docker-compose.yml:
version: '3.8'
services:
dynamodb-local:
image: "amazon/dynamodb-local:latest"
container_name: dynamodb-local
ports:
- "8000:8000"
django-service:
depends_on:
- dynamodb-local
image: django-service
build:
dockerfile: Dockerfile
context: .
env_file:
- envs/tests.env
volumes:
- ./:/app
command: sh -c 'cd /app && pytest tests/integration/ -vv'
Now I need to run this without docker-compose, only using docker itself. I try to do following:
docker network create -d bridge net // create a network for dynamodb-local and django-service
docker run --network=net --rm -p 8000:8000 -d amazon/dynamodb-local:latest // run cont. att. to network
docker run --network=net --rm --env-file ./envs/tests.env -v `pwd`:/app django-service /bin/sh -c 'env && cd /app && pytest tests/integration -vv'
I can see that both services start, but I can't connect to the dynamo-db.
Where is the problem? Any comment or help is appreciated!

Through the docker-compose.yml, the amazon/dynamodb-local container has a name defined (container_name: dynamodb-local, If we do not set this property, docker-compose will use the service's name as container name). This enables other containers in the same network to address the container through its name.
In the docker-run command, we do not set an explicit container name. We can set an explicit container name by executing docker run ... --name dynamodb-local .... More details can be found in the corresponding docker run documentation.

Docker - Container Bash not responding after running docker-compose up -d

If I build from the Dockerfile I can run the docker run IMAGE_ID /bin/bash and browse the container.
But if I run docker-compose up -d from docker-compose.yml and run docker attach, it doesn't respond, it stays still in the container terminal and sometimes leaves the container terminal alone
Follow my docker files
Dockerfile
FROM nginx:1.21.6
EXPOSE 80
WORKDIR /etc/nginx
ENTRYPOINT /bin/bash
docker-compose.yml
version: "3.8"
services:
reverse:
build:
dockerfile: Dockerfile
context: ./nginx/docker
image: reverse/nginx
container_name: reverse
ports:
- 80:80
- 443:443
volumes:
- ./nginx:/etc/nginx
tty: true
To be able to provide interactive input after attaching you also need to set stdin_open: true in the docker-compose.yml:
services:
reverse:
# ...
tty: true
stdin_open: true
But depending on what you want to achieve with this probably a better solution would be
docker-compose exec reverse /bin/bash or
docker-compose run reverse /bin/bash.

Running Echoip Docker Image

I'm new to Docker and having trouble running the docker image https://github.com/mpolden/echoip#docker-image. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
$ docker run mpolden/echoip -a ./GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb -c ./GeoLite2-City.mmdb -f ./GeoLite2-Country.mmdb
echoip: open ./GeoLite2-Country.mmdb: no such file or directory
The files are in the same directory. To test on your end, download the files: GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb, GeoLite2-City.mmdb, GeoLite2-Country.mmdb: https://gofile.io/d/G4i6hb
Having a docker-compose.yml would make this much easier to run:
version: "3.7"
services:
echoip:
image: mpolden/echoip
command: "echoip -a ./GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb -c ./GeoLite2-City.mmdb -f ./GeoLite2-Country.mmdb"
ports:
- "8080:8080"
restart: unless-stopped
The files are in the same directory
Docker containers cannot access the host filesystem unless it is mounted as a volume. For example, you could mount the current directory to /data in the container...
docker run --rm -v "${PWD}:/data" -p 8080:8080 mpolden/echoip \
-a /data/GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb \
-c /data/GeoLite2-City.mmdb \
-f /data/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb \
-l 0.0.0.0:8080
A Docker Compose config might look like this
version: "3.8"
services:
echoip:
image: mpolden/echoip
command: >
-l 0.0.0.0:8080
-a /data/GeoLite2-ASN.mmdb
-c /data/GeoLite2-City.mmdb
-f /data/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb
ports:
- "8080:8080"
volumes:
- "./:/data"
restart: unless-stopped

Launch a graphical application with docker-compose

I have a simple command to run a java file (power architect) application with graphical interface in a docker container.
sudo docker run --rm --net=host --env="DISPLAY" --name cont_sql_power_architect -it -v $HOME/Desktop/FRM_project/volumes/sql_power_architect:/project img_sql_power_architect java -jar project/architect-1.0.8/architect.jar &
I try to reproduce it in docker-compose
services:
sql_power_architect:
build:
context: ./dockerfiles/
dockerfile: dockerfile_sql_power_architect
image: img_sql_power_architect
container_name: cont_sql_power_architect
environment:
- DISPLAY
network_mode: "host"
stdin_open: true
tty: true
volumes:
- ./volumes/sql_power_architect:/project
command:
- java -jar project/architect-1.0.8/architect.jar &
When I launch the docker-compose up -d, the container is launched but instantaneously stopped. The commands seems to be the same than the docker run. I don't see what I am missing.
Any Idea ?
PS to be able to run with a docker run, I have to execute before the command xhost +"local:docker#" each time I open a new console. But I still execute it before the docker-compose command.

How to convert a docker run -it bash command into a docker-compose?

Given the following command:
docker run -dit -p 9080:9080 -p 9443:9443 -p 2809:2809 -p 9043:9043 --name container_name --net=host myimage:latest bash
How to convert it into an equivalent docker-compose.yml file?
In docker-compose in -it flags are being reflected by following:
tty: true
stdin_open: true
Equivalent to docker run --net=host is this:
services:
web:
...
networks:
hostnet: {}
networks:
hostnet:
external: true
name: host
So your final docker-compose should look like this:
version: '3'
services:
my_name:
image: myimage:latest
container_name: my_name
ports:
- "9080:9080"
- "9443:9443"
- "2809:2809"
- "9043:9043"
command: bash
tty: true
stdin_open: true
networks:
hostnet: {}
networks:
hostnet:
external: true
name: host
Compose file version 3 reference
Last but not least if you want to run it in the detached mode just add -d flag to docker-compose command:
docker-compose up -d
You can’t directly. Docker Compose will start up some number of containers that are expected to run more or less autonomously, and there’s no way to start typing commands into one of them. (What would you do if you had multiple containers that you wanted to start that were all just trying to launch interactive bash sessions?)
A better design would be to set up your Docker image so that its default CMD launched the actual command you were trying to run.
FROM some_base_image:x.y
COPY ...
CMD myapp.sh
Then you should be able to run
docker run -d \
-p 9080:9080 \
-p 9443:9443 \
-p 2809:2809 \
-p 9043:9043 \
--name container_name \
myimage:latest
and your application should start up on its own, successfully, with no user intervention. That’s something you can translate directly into Docker Compose syntax and it will work as expected.

Launching docker command from docker-compose v.3 file

I'm learning about Docker and I'm at first steps.
I've to 'refresh' postgres image from compose file to initialize db scripts as YOSIFKIT here do through shell (https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/issues/193).
here is my Docker file:
FROM postgres:9.6.7
COPY docker-postgresql-9.6.7/prova.sql /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/
and here is my compose file:
version: '3'
services:
postgresql_rdbms:
restart: always
image: postgres-prova
build:
context: ../
dockerfile: docker-postgresql-9.6.7/Dockerfile
command: bash -c "docker run -it --rm postgres-prova ls -ln /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d && docker run -it --rm postgres-prova && postgres"
environment:
PG_PASSWORD: postgres
ports:
- "5432:5432"
volumes:
- /srv/docker/postgresql:/var/lib/postgresql
HOW can I insert a command in a compose-file to do "docker run -it --rm imageToReload" ???
Because I've seen that "command:" in compose file works inside the container, but I want operate ON the container, on a upper level (=manage the container from the compose file, after the container creation)
Thank you very much
From what I understand you want docker-compose to delete/remove the container after every run so that the build is run each time and a fresh prova.sql file can be copied into the image each time the service is brought up. The --force-recreate flag is probably what you need.
The command directive within the yaml file provides the command that is run inside the container.
