I have a docker compose file that links my server to a redis image:
version: '3'
services:
api:
build: .
command: npm run dev
environment:
NODE_ENV: development
volumes:
- .:/home/node/code
- /home/node/code/node_modules
- /home/node/code/build/Release
ports:
- "1389:1389"
depends_on:
- redis
redis:
image: redis:alpine
I am wondering how could I open a redis-cli against the Redis container started by docker-compose to directly modify ke/value pairs. I tried with docker attach but it does not open any shell.
Use docker exec -it your_container_name /bin/bash to enter into redis container, then execute redis-cli to modify key-value pair.
See https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/exec/
Install the Redis CLI on your host. Edit the YAML file to publish Redis's port
services:
redis:
image: redis:alpine
ports: ["6379:6379"]
Then run docker-compose up to redeploy the container, and you can run redis-cli from the host without needing to directly interact with Docker.
Using /bin/bash as the command (as suggested in the accepted solution) doesn't work for me with the latest redis:alpine image on Linux.
Instead, this worked:
docker exec -it your_container_name redis-cli

How can I implement the below docker-compose code, but using the docker run command? I am specifically interested in the depends_on part.
version: '2'
services:
db:
image: postgres
web:
build: .
command: python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
volumes:
- .:/code
ports:
- "8000:8000"
depends_on:
- db
depends_on: doesn't map to a docker run option. When you have your two docker run commands you need to make sure you put them in the right order.
docker build -t web_image .
docker network create some_network
docker run --name db --net some_network postgres
# because this depends_on: [db] it must be second
docker run --name web --net some_network ... web_image ...
depends-on mean :
Compose implementations MUST guarantee dependency services have been started before starting a dependent service. Compose implementations MAY wait for dependency services to be “ready” before starting a dependent service.
Hence the depends on is not only an order of running
and you can use docker-compose instead of docker run and every option in docker run can be in the docker-compose file
Run Redis in Docker
File docker-compose.yml
version: "3.8"
services:
redis:
image: redis
volumes:
- ./data:/data
ports:
- 6379:6379
docker pull redis
docker-compose up
docker-compose up -d
docker container ls
telnet localhost 6379
How to connect to Redis server with redis-cli ?
You can run attach to docker container and use redis-cli directly.
This command will attach you to the container's shell
docker exec -it CONTAINER_ID /bin/sh
Then you can use redis-cli just like it installed directly on the host system
I'm particularly new to Docker. I was trying to containerize a project for development and production versions. I came up with a very basic docker-compose configuration and then tried the override feature which doesn't seem to work.
I added overrides for volumes to web and celery services which do not actually mount to the container, can confirm the same by looking at the inspect log of both the containers.
Contents of compose files:-
docker-compose.yml
version: '3'
services:
web:
build: .
command: python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
depends_on:
- redis
redis:
image: redis:5.0.9-alpine
celery:
build: .
command: celery worker -A facedetect.celeryapp -l INFO --concurrency=1 --without-gossip --without-heartbeat
depends_on:
- redis
environment:
- C_FORCE_ROOT=true
docker-compose.override.yml
version: '3'
services:
web:
volumes:
- .:/code
ports:
- "8000:8000"
celery:
volumes:
- .:/code
I use Docker with Pycharm on Windows 10.
Command executed to deploy the compose configuration:-
C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker-compose.exe" -f <full-path>/docker-compose.yml up -d
Command executed to inspect one of the containers:-
docker container inspect <container_id>
Any help would be appreciated! :)
Just figured out that I had provided the docker-compose.yml file explicitly to the Run Configuration created in Pycharm as it was mandatory to provide at least one of these.
The command used by Pycharm explicitly mentions the .yml files using -f option when running the configuration. Adding the docker-compose.override.yml file to the Run Configuration changed the command to
C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker-compose.exe" -f <full_path>\docker-compose.yml -f <full_path>/docker-compose.override.yml up -d
This solved the issue. Thanks to Exadra37 directing to look out for the command that was being executed.
i am using akka http server in my app and mongodb as a backed database, akka http uses standard input to keep running the server,
here is how i am binding it
val host = "0.0.0.0"
val port = 8080
val bindingFuture = Http().bindAndHandle(MainRouter.routes, host, port)
log.info("Server online ")
StdIn.readLine()
bindingFuture
.flatMap(_.unbind()) // trigger unbinding from the port
.onComplete(_ => system.terminate()) // and shutdown when done
i need to dockerize my app docker closes the standard input by default when it starts the container, to keep it running we need to provide -i option with the container like this
docker run -p 8080:8080 -i imagename:tag
now the problem is i need to use docker-compose to start my app with mongo
here is my docker-compose.yml
version: '3.3'
services:
mongodb:
image: mongo:4.2.1
container_name: docker-mongo
ports:
- "27017:27017"
akkahttpservice:
image: app:0.0.1
container_name: docker-app
ports:
- "8080:8080"
depends_on:
- mongodb
how can i provide the -i option with docker-app container
Note after doing docker-compose up
docker exec -it containerid sh
did not worked for me
Any help would be appreciated
Having issues getting docker links to work if I use "host" mode. How do you access the other linked docker container if it is using "host" mode?
An example:
If I use these 2 compose files below, I can run the following:
$ docker-compose up
$ docker exec -it [CONTAINER ID OF REDIS1] bash
$ redis-cli -h redis2 [OR redis-cli -h redis2-alias]
$ PING => you will get back PONG from redis2
docker-compose.yml
version: "2"
services:
redis1:
image: "redis"
ports:
- "6379"
links:
- redis2:redis2-alias
redis2:
extends:
file: docker-compose.redis2.yml
service: redis
docker-compose.redis2.yml
version: "2"
services:
redis:
image: "redis"
ports:
- "6379"
however, if you change docker-compose.redis2.yml to use host mode. when you try to connect to redis2 (from redis1)...it just hangs and never connects
docker-compose.redis2.yml
version: "2"
services:
redis:
image: "redis"
network_mode: "host"
$ docker-compose up
$ docker exec -it [CONTAINER ID OF REDIS1] bash
$ redis-cli -h redis2 => this just hangs...never connects to redis2
how do you connect to redis2 (when it is in host mode) from redis1?
Links are not supported with --net=host. Links are also deprecated (in philosophy) now. Prefer using a custom network.
Looks like Docker chose not to support this use case due to its complexity, see the GitHub issue here.
