Base files for building the AppBuilder production digiserve/ab-sails-api Docker image.

Preface

Intended to be used in a stack with MariaDB, redis, and others. For the official stack, please see https://github.com/appdevdesigns/ab-production-stack/

The goal is to build a full working image deterministically from the standard tools and repositories. There should be no ambiguity about the origin of any component.

Requirements

At build time the image will have root:root as the configured DB credentials. The runtime DB password must be mounted in a plaintext file located at "/secret/password". The included ab-launcher.js will update the config files accordingly before each launch.

A custom local.js config file may be mounted into the "/app/config/" directory to change various settings. However, "/secret/password" still supercedes that for the DB password, unless you bypass ab-launcher.js.

Arguments

• AB_GITHUB_COMMIT

  You may specify a branch, tag, or commit of the app_builder repository on github. The default is master.

Example usage

docker build --no-cache --compress --build-arg AB_GITHUB_COMMIT=f9f0715f -t digiserve/ab-sails-api:v1 .
