Introduction

This is a simplified docker image and docker-compose, based on https://gitlab.com/Shinobi-Systems/ShinobiDocker.

This diverges from upstream in a few ways:

• Uses the official mysql docker image, and in a separate container rather than running it in the background in the same container as the app
• All database settings are configurable from within the compose file
• Shinobi docker image is kept as small as possible (~500MB compared to ~800MB for migoller/shinobidocker:alpine)
• Removes the update step in docker-entrypoint.sh

Setup

1. Create the .env file and change/populate it if needed:

   cp env.example .env

Note: .env is used here instead of env_files due to how compose uses variables. In order to use MYSQL_USER and MYSQL_PASSWORD in the mysql container healthcheck, these have to be declared within the compose environment (.env). Then to keep the compose file DRY, these are pulled out into the .env file then referenced in the environment blocks for both containers.

2. Start containers with:

   docker-compose up
