This is a Dockerfile and installations scripts to get a Aegir hosting system for Drupal up and running.

Services provided:

• Apache
• MariaDB
• Solr / Tomcat
• SSH

First checkout this branch. Then go to the directory and build the docker image.

1. Add your ssh public key to the authorized_keys file.
2. Customize config options from docker_run.sh into a new file called config-include.sh.
3. build the docker container.

docker build -t namespace/aegir_maria .

After the successful build we can run a container instance. We are sharing multiple volumes with our host system.

1. /var/aegir
2. /var/log/apache2
3. /var/lib/mysql
4. /etc/mysql/conf.d
5. /var/log/mysql
6. /usr/share/solr4

We are creating these volumes in a directory named with the name of our new instance und /var/docker. For example /var/docker/aegir01/var/aegir.

After the container has been built we can run it. In the run command we add passwords, domain, hostname, version information, port mappings and file system volume mappings.

The full run command in scripted in docker_run.sh

The database passwords can be changed by adding a file called config-include.sh, which includes the updated config lines from docker_run.sh.

docker run -ti namespace/aegir_maria:latest /bin/bash

This export command can be used to manually initialize the environment: $ export AEGIR_SITE=aegir01 AEGIR_FRONTEND_URL=aegir01.mydomain.com AEGIR_EMAIL=[email protected] AEGIR_DB_PASSWORD=CHANGEME AEGIR_VERSION=7.x-3.x MYSQL_ROOT_PW=CHANGEME SOLR_PASS=CHANGEME SOLR_VERSION=4.6.0

I added the Solr search engine to the container. In my configuration there are two running core with the latest schema version of search Search API Solr search (https://drupal.org/project/search_api_solr)

I wrote a little article on our website about the creation of the Dockerfile and where i failed with some expectations about Docker. The article can be found on http://inspirationlabs.com/blog/docker-and-aegir-hosting-system.
