Access to Docker Container /bin/bash #133

Closed jasonbillebault closed 1 year ago

Have you read the documentation?

You are setting up traggo in

Describe your problem

I'm not familiar with Docker and it's a great opportunity to learn it by installing your application on a docker.

I ran a docker container but I want to control Backup and Restoration of config changes. I would like to know how to access to the content in SSH in order to understand the content ?

I saw a lot of Google answers about running this command :

docker exec -it *id* /bin/bash without success, i tried also /bin/sh

Is that impossible for your container or is there something I miss ?

Any errors, logs, or other information that might help us identify your problem

Ex: docker-compose.yml, nginx.conf, browser requests, etc.

The docker image uses scratch as base image, so only the traggo binary is available there https://github.com/traggo/server/blob/017af77e2940d97c2b921f13f8847979d00bbb94/docker/Dockerfile#L1-L5

Even if you can see some website recommending it, you (usually) should not use docker exec bash.

Docker containers are ephemeral. In your case, you want to retrieve files in order to perform backup. Instead on doing backup within Traggo container, you should retrieve your files using the volume volume (-v if using docker in CLI, or the volumes section in your docker-compose.yml file). They should be readable from your host, and (if needed) from another container if configured with a shared volume.
