docker image for GraalVM version

chaoqing commented 3 years ago

Hi, thanks a lot for this fantastic project. I am not a java developer, so know little on the java thing. Thanks to the Docker image, I can easily start a service to serve mongodb. But I did not find one docker image with GraalVM enabled, which I think will be better for guys like us just want using your work in cloud.

So I I would really appreciate if you guys could create a Dockerfile for GraalVM native version of restheart and push it to Dockerhub.

Hi @chaoqing

Thank you for your kind words. A GraalVM docker image sounds like a good idea and it's already on our roadmap, but we don't have an ETA yet.

Byt the way, with the upcoming new version of RESTHeart it is possible to implement plugins also in JavaScript.

We still didn't released a GraalVM image but we now have restheart-native image (a binary image build with GraalVM, which allows JS plugins deployments):

$ docker pull softinstigate:restheart:6.0.0-native

Also docker-compose is available:

# Create dirs
mkdir restheart-native restheart-native/etc restheart-native/plugins  && cd restheart-native

# GRAB docker compose file
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SoftInstigate/restheart/master/docker-compose-native.yml --output docker-compose.yml

# GRAB CONFIGURATION FILES

We are releasing the following docker images:

restheart running on OpenJDK

$ docker pull softinstigate/restheart:6.0.3

Note: allows deploying only Java plugins

restheart-native (executable built as native image with GraalVM)

$ docker pull softinstigate/restheart:6.0.3-native

Notes:

allows dynamically deploying only JavaScript plugins (i.e. by just copying them into the ./plugins directory
Java plugins require to be built as native image
smaller memory footprint and faster startup

RESTHeart running on GraalVM Java Rutime

$ docker pull softinstigate/restheart:6.0.3-graalvm

Notes:

allows deploying both Java and JavaScript plugins
bigger docker image
better peak performances
