[xwiki-devs] [ANN] First version of the XWiki docker packaging
Hi everyone, I’ve started a first version of a XWiki docker packaging at https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/docker-xwiki and I’ve created an automated build on DockerHub at https://hub.docker.com/u/xwiki/. The goal is to provide an official packaging done by the XWiki dev team. Since I’m a recent user of Docker I’m sure I’ve made plenty of mistakes and not following some best practices, even though I’ve tried my best to do that ;) So it would be great if: * Some users could try it out and let me know how it works * Users could tell me what they’d expect in term of setup from a docker distribution. * Some Docker experts review my code and let me know what I should improve! After I receive some confirmation that it works well-enough, my goal is to document it as an official way of installing xwiki on xwiki.org. Feel free to create jiras for ideas and bugs at http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XDOCKER. Thanks a lot! -Vincent PS: Note that I’m sure some will want a different DB, such as postgreSQL for example. That should be easy to do. Pull request accepted! :)
Note that my assumption so far has been to provide a production-ready Dockerized XWiki. This is not meant to be a demo container to test out XWiki. * This is for example why I’ve used Debian:jessy as the base imagine and not alpine for example. Another option to slim it down would be to use https://hub.docker.com/r/tklx/base/ but I’ve preferred to use what you’d use in production. * This is also why I’m using docker-compose and have several separate containers for the DB and for XWiki/Tomcat. Thanks -Vìncent

Ok so now that we have an official xwiki image on dockerhub at https://hub.docker.com/_/xwiki/ we need to decide what we do with https://hub.docker.com/r/xwiki/xwiki-mysql-tomcat/ I think we should remove it to avoid confusion. Anyone having any issue with me removing it now? WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
