I'm trying to use docker with rails, building an entire stack inside one container. My endgoal is to have an nginx/memcached/unicorn/rails/postgres stack with runit as the process manager. So far I have my app, ruby, and postgres installed. At this point I'm trying to test if everything is working correctly before I move on to nginx/memcached/unicorn.
Here's my dockerfile:
FROM ubuntu:trusty
ADD . /app
# Update repos
RUN apt-get update
# General
RUN apt-get install -y git curl software-properties-common python-software-properties ssh
# Install ruby (taken from https://gist.github.com/konklone/6662393)
RUN \curl -Lk https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
RUN /bin/bash -l -c "rvm requirements"
RUN /bin/bash -l -c "rvm install 2.1.1"
ENV PATH /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.1/bin:/usr/local/rvm/rubies/ruby-2.1.1/bin:$PATH
RUN gem install bundler --no-ri --no-rdoc
# Install nodejs (rails js runtime)
RUN apt-get install -y nodejs
# Install postgresql (adapted from https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt)
RUN echo "deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ $(lsb_release -sc)-pgdg main"
RUN curl https://www.postgresql.org/media/keys/ACCC4CF8.asc | apt-key add -
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y postgresql-9.3 postgresql-client-9.3 postgresql-contrib-9.3
# Setup postgresql
RUN mkdir /pgsql && chown postgres /pgsql
USER postgres
ENV PATH $PATH:/usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/bin/
RUN initdb -E UTF8 -D /pgsql/data
USER root
# Needed for pg gem (from http://stackoverflow.com/a/20754173)
RUN apt-get install -y libpq-dev
Then I create a container with the following command
docker run -it -p 3000:3000 *dockerfile_image* /bin/bash -l
Inside of that container I set up postgresql as a background job and run rails s
$ sudo -u postgres /usr/lib/postgresql/9.3/bin/postgres -D /pgsql/data
^z
$ bg
$ sudo -u postgres /usr/bin/psql -c "create role *appname* login createdb"
$ cd /app
$ bundle && rake db:create db:migrate
$ rails s
=> Booting WEBrick
=> Rails 4.1.0 application starting in development on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Run `rails server -h` for more startup options
=> Notice: server is listening on all interfaces (0.0.0.0). Consider using 127.0.0.1 (--binding option)
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server
....
But as the title states, I can't connect from localhost:3000. I've also tried
- trying to connect from 0.0.0.0:3000
- leaving the -p 3000:3000 and trying to connect from container_ip:3000
- EXPOSE 3000 in the dockerfile, using docker ps to find the mapped port and trying localhost:mapped_port
Also I don't know if it matters but I'm using boot2docker on OSX.
