How to make a docker run #100

Closed nixilb closed 3 years ago

nixilb commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I want to use CapRover to install this nodeJS app: I usually use

docker run -it -p 1990:1880 --name mybot 6v099815.gra5.container-registry.ovh.net/nis/nodered-git-login:v4

An idea?

Create a new app
Go to HTTP settings of your app, change the container HTTP port to 1880
Click on SAVE and UPDATE
Go to deployment tab, one of the methods is "image deploy", enter this image's name and click on deploy. mybot 6v099815.gra5.container-registry.ovh.net/nis/nodered-git-login:v4

Note: if your docker registry is private, make sure you first connect your docker registry:

Go to cluster tab
Add new remote registry
Enter your registry info 6v099815.gra5.container-registry.ovh.net......
Save
Change the default push to disabled [IMPORTANT}

This docker images contains an IBM NodeRED. Do you think I will be able to access its API entry point using https?

githubsaturn commented 3 years ago

As long as it exposes an HTTP port on 1880, yes.

Were do I put parameters of the docker run command? Typically -p -v -name -alwaysrestart ... etc

CapRover uses docker swarm. You don't deploy containers, you deploy services.

Only a handful of flags are available on the UI. Env vars, ports and image.

Always restart is not needed. Docker swarm automatically does that.

Now it works perfectly. I now have an API written in nodeRED that I can access using https in a much simpler way than what is described in the NodeRED documentation. Also awesome support.
