# Docker OS Images : NODEJS
Simple container used to run server side executed javascript content. include all nodejs and npm dependency.
Run [nodejs main app.js](https://www.nodejs.org/) under a container
based on [startx/fedora container](https://hub.docker.com/r/startx/fedora).
Could use various network protocol (like http, websocket, smtp, telnet) according to the content of the running app.
| [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/startxfr/docker-images.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/startxfr/docker-images) | [Dockerhub Registry](https://hub.docker.com/r/startx/sv-nodejs/) | [Sources](https://github.com/startxfr/docker-images/Services/nodejs) | [STARTX Profile](https://github.com/startxfr) |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|
## Available flavours
* `:latest` : Fedora core 23 + NodeJS v0.10.36
* `:fc23` : Fedora core 23 + NodeJS v0.10.36
* `:fc22` : Fedora core 22 + NodeJS
* `:fc21` : Fedora core 21 + NodeJS
* `:centos7` : CentOS 7 + NodeJS
* `:centos6` : Centos 6 + NodeJS
## Running from dockerhub registry
* with `docker` you can run `docker run -it --name="service-nodejs" startx/sv-nodejs` from any docker host
* with `docker-compose` you can create a docker-compose.yml file with the following content
```
service:
image: startx/sv-nodejs:latest
container_name: "service-nodejs"
environment:
CONTAINER_TYPE: "service"
CONTAINER_SERVICE: "nodejs"
CONTAINER_INSTANCE: "service-nodejs"
volumes:
- "/tmp/container/logs/nodejs:/data/logs/nodejs"
- "/tmp/container/nodejs:/data/nodejs"
```
## Docker-compose in various situations
* sample docker-compose.yml linked to host port 1000
```
service:
image: startx/sv-nodejs:latest
container_name: "service-nodejs"
environment:
CONTAINER_INSTANCE: "service-nodejs"
ports:
- "1000:8000"
```
* sample docker-compose.yml with port exposed only to linked services
```
service:
image: startx/sv-nodejs:latest
container_name: "service-nodejs"
environment:
CONTAINER_INSTANCE: "service-nodejs"
expose:
- "8000"
```
* sample docker-compose.yml using data container
```
data:
image: startx/fedora:latest
container_name: "service-nodejs-data"
environment:
CONTAINER_INSTANCE: "service-nodejs-data"
service:
image: startx/sv-nodejs:latest
container_name: "service-nodejs"
environment:
CONTAINER_INSTANCE: "service-nodejs"
volume_from:
- data:rw
```
## Using this image in your own container
You can use this Dockerfile template to start a new personalized container based on this container. Create a file named Dockerfile in your project directory and copy this content inside. See [docker guide](http://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/) for instructions on how to use this file.
```
FROM startx/sv-nodejs:latest
#... your container specifications
CMD ["/bin/run.sh"]
```
## Environment variable
| Variable | Type | Mandatory | Description |
|---------------------------|----------|-----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| APP_MAIN | `string` | `yes` | Path to the application entrypoint. default is /data/nodejs/app.js
| CONTAINER_INSTANCE | `string` | `yes` | Container name. Should be uning to get fine grained log and application reporting
| CONTAINER_TYPE | `string` | `no` | Container family (os, service, application. could be enhanced
| CONTAINER_SERVICE | `string` | `no` | Define the type of service or application provided
| LOG_PATH | `auto` | `auto` | default set to /data/logs/nodejs and used as a volume mountpoint
| APP_PATH | `auto` | `auto` | default set to /data/nodejs and used as a volume mountpoint
| TMP_APP_PATH | `auto` | `auto` | default set to /tmp/nodejs and used to hold app content and copy to $APP_PATH on startup (if $APP_PATH is empty)
## Exposed port
| Port | Description |
|-------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 8000 | network port used to communicate with the running application. Network protocol depend on the running app content.
## Exposed volumes
| Container directory | Description |
|----------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| /data/logs/nodejs | log directory used to record container and nodejs logs
| /data/nodejs | data directory served by nodejs. If empty will be filled with app on startup. In other case use content from $TMP_APP_PATH directory
## Testing the service
access to the running application accoridn to the protocol(s) used in your application. For webcontent, you can use `firefox http://localhost:8000`. Change port and hostname according to your current configuration
## For advanced users
You want to use this container and code to build and create locally this container, follow theses instructions.
This section will help you if you want to :
* Get latest version of this service container
* Enhance container content by adding instruction in Dockefile before build step
You must have a working environment with the source code of this repository. Read and follow [how to setup your working environment](https://github.com/startxfr/docker-images#setup-your-working-environment-mandatory) to get a working directory. The following instructions assume you are at the top level of your working directory.
### Build & run a container using `docker`
1. Jump into the container directory with `cd Services/nodejs`
2. Build the container using `docker build -t sv-nodejs .`
3. Run this container
1. Interactively with `docker run -p 8000:8000 -v /data/logs/nodejs -it sv-nodejs`. If you add a second parameter (like `/bin/bash`) to will run this command instead of the default entrypoint. Usefull to interact with this container (ex: `/bin/bash`, `/bin/ps -a`, `/bin/df -h`,...)
2. As a daemon with `docker run -p 8000:8000 -v /data/logs/nodejs -d sv-nodejs`
### Build & run a container using `docker-compose`
1. Jump into the container directory with `cd Services/nodejs`
2. Run this container
1. Interactively with `docker-compose up` Startup logs appears and escaping this command stop the container
2. As a daemon with `docker-compose up -d`. Container startup logs can be read using `docker-compose logs`
If you experience trouble with port already used, edit docker-compose.yml file and change port mapping
