Hi Vincent,

This is great, and if it had been out two weeks ago I would have used it as the basis for my installation! ;D

I can’t promise to check it out in the near-term future but when I get a chance to revisit the install method, I will check it out.

Cool

When you release a new version, do you plan on pushing that out as a new Docker image, or will you upgrade-in-place in the container? I assume the former.

Yep, I’ll push new images. Thanks -Vincent

Thanks, Craig

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

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! :)
