Kalastack Docker

This repo contains the source for a Kalastack-like Drupal stack using Docker container technology for Drupal. It was built specifically for the Kalabox project and for use with boot2docker-cli.

Quick Start

We have provided a script to help you get started really easily. Right now this startup script has only been tested on MacOSX 1.9+

On your host machine

cd ~
# Get a copy of the kalastack-docker project.
git clone https://github.com/kalamuna/kalastack-docker.git
# Perform Mac installation.
cd kalastack-docker/macosx
./setup.sh

In order to access your webserver in your browser you wil want to add an entry into your /etc/hosts file. To do this you need to find the docker vm ip address. Luckily it is really easy to do this now by running boot2docker ip Once you discover this IP address you want to add an entry into the /etc/hosts file on you hosts machine like this:

1.3.3.7 test.kala

Useful Things

Connecting to SSH, MySQL and other services

You can run docker ps inside the docker vm to see what ports are doing in your container. This will help you access your services.

CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                     COMMAND               CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                                                                   NAMES
c69959c355ae        kalastack-docker:latest   /bin/bash /start.sh   2 seconds ago       Up 1 seconds        0.0.0.0:49171->22/tcp, 0.0.0.0:49172->3306/tcp, 0.0.0.0:49173->80/tcp   test.kala

In the above example the following service mappings apply

SSH   -> 22   -> 49171
HTTP  -> 3306 -> 49173
MYSQL -> 3306 -> 49172

Meaning you can connect to these services on your host machine in the following ways:

  1. HTTP -> Navigate to test.kala in your browser
  2. SSH -> Run ssh -p 49171 [email protected] (the default password should be kala)
  3. MYSQL -> Using your favorite mysql client use host: test.kala, port: 49172, user: root, pass: root.

In this example we assume that you have set your VIRTUAL_HOST for the container to test.kala and you have also set up the appropriate /etc/hosts entry on your host machine.

Building a Drupal site

The easiest way to build a Drupal site is to ssh into your container and navigate to your code by running cd /data/code. Once you are in here you can build a site from Acquia or Pantheon by using the Switchboard or by pulling a site down with curl, wget or git.

Sharing Code with your Host

Most people like to use the text-editor or IDE on their host machine. Kalastack-docker does not provide any file sharing with your host out of the box but you can download a copy of your code onto your host machine and sync it into your container with

With scp

scp -rp -P 49171 ~/mycode/* [email protected]:/data/code/

With rsync over ssh

rsync -ravz -e "ssh -p 49171 -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null" --delete --progress --exclude 'sites/default/files' ~/mycode/* [email protected]:/data/code/

Remember to use the correct SSH port for your container.

SSH Key Forwarding

For now the easiest way to forward your keys into any kalastack-docker is to add the following lines to your ~/.ssh/config file

Host *.kala
  ForwardAgent yes

This assumes that your VIRTUAL_HOST is set to something.kala when you run your container.

Debugging Code

As long as you use the setup script above or set your boot2docker host-only network host IP to 1.3.3.1 you can use xdebug out of the box with kalastack-docker. Of course, you will want to follow the normal procedure for setting up debug config for your text editor/IDE. In SublimeText2 the config looks something like this:

{
  "folders":
  [
    {
      "path": "/Users/mpirog/mycode"
    }
  ],
  "settings":
  {
    "xdebug":
    {
      "super_globals": true,
      "close_on_stop": true,
      "path_mapping":
      {
        "/data/code/": "/Users/mpirog/mycode/"
      },
      "port": 9000,
      "url": "http://test.kala"
    }
  }
}

Manual Installation

Install boot2docker-cli

We need to instantiate a docker environment in order to get all the docker magix.

Start by installing boot2docker-cli.

Install kalabox-proxy

We want users to be able to enter something like "site.local" in their host browsers instead of "192.168.59.103:49173" to access their site. In order to do this we need to set up a reverse proxy that sits in front of all the docker containers to route requests appropriately.

As such you will need to pull down the kalabox-proxy container and run it. For more details on how to install the kalabox-proxy go here

Install kaladata-docker

We want users data to be stored outside of the docker container running the webserver so that webservers can be spun down, spun up, upgraded, swapped out, ec. In order to facilitate this users must instantiate a data-only container built specifically for Kalabox. To do so please follow the installation instructions. You will want to give your data container a name you can remember such as 'test_data.' You will need this later when you mount this onto Kalastack

Pull/build container

You can either pull the container pre-built from the Docker Index or you can build the container from source.

First SSH into boot2docker by running boot2docker ssh

To pull from the Docker Index simply run

docker pull pirog/kalastack-docker

To build from source run the following

git clone https://github.com/kalamuna/kalastack-docker.git
cd kalastack-docker
docker build --tag="pirog/kalastack-docker" .

Start your container

VIRTUAL_HOST and VIRTUAL_PORT tell the kalabox-proxy how to route your request. VIRTUAL_HOST should be the address you want to enter into your browser to access your site. VIRTUAL_PORT should almost always be 80. You will want to add an entry into your /etc/hosts file on the host side to facilitate the magic. Please consult "Your VM IP address" below for more details.

docker run -d -t \
  -e VIRTUAL_HOST=test.kala \
  -e VIRTUAL_PORT=80 -p :22 -p :80 -p :3306 \
  --volumes-from="test_data" \
  --name="test.kala" \
  --hostname="test.kala" \
  pirog/kalastack-docker:latest

Uninstall

The best way to uninstall this whole thing either because you hate it or to try to reinstall is to use the uninstall script packaged with the repo

# Return to where you cloned or downloaded the kalastack-docker code
cd ~
cd kalastack-docker/macosx
./uninstall.sh
