I didn't test this feature, but I don't see any reason why it should not work.
Just use FIREBIRD_CONF_RemoteAuxPort
environment variable to set the value of RemoteAuxPort
in firebird.conf
to a specific port and publish the port to the host.
That should work, but would it better to provide a working configuration out of the box?
Suggestions?
Set a default port, perhaps 3051, in the firebird.conf and EXPOSE it?
For a rarely used feature, and one that the FIREBIRD_CONF_*
env vars could easily solve for anyone who needs it, do you really think this is needed in the base image?
Also, the lack of a standardized port.
Will events work with Firebird running inside the container? I didn't try it, but I suspect not. Firebird randomly allocates the port and as it isn't mapped/exposed to the host, clients won't be able to connect. I think the solution is to configure a fixed port and expose that also.
