Couchbase Docker images are always at hub.docker.com/_/couchbase/. Complete instructions to run Couchbase Docker Container are available at docs.docker.com/engine/examples/couchbase/.
Start Couchbase Docker Container
How do you start a Couchbase Docker container?
docker run -d -p 8091-8093:8091-8093 -p 11210:11210 couchbase
By default, this command starts Couchbase Server 4.1 Enterprise Edition. The latest GA images are always available using this image name.
This server needs to be manually configured by going to the Web Console on http://<DOCKERHOST>:8091. The IP address of the Docker Host in my case is obtained using:
docker-machine ip couchbase
- The instructions to configure the server are available at at docs.docker.com/engine/examples/couchbase/.
Pre-configured Couchbase Docker Container
If you want a pre-configured server, then you can run the image:
docker run -d -p 8091-8093:8091-8093 -p 11210:11210 arungupta/couchbase
This image is created using Dockerfile and configures the following:
- Configures the memory
- Configures Index, Query, and Data service
- Sets up username/password credentials
Couchbase 4.5 Docker Container
Couchbase 4.5 Developer Preview was launched recently. It can run as a Docker container as:
docker run -d -p 8091-8093:8091-8093 -p 11210:11210 couchbase/server:enterprise-4.5.0-DP1 Unable to find image 'couchbase/server:enterprise-4.5.0-DP1' locally enterprise-4.5.0-DP1: Pulling from couchbase/server a64038a0eeaa: Pull complete 2ec6e7edf8a8: Pull complete 0a5fb6c3c94b: Pull complete a3ed95caeb02: Pull complete 7d007592b256: Pull complete 31cbaa6abb86: Pull complete efe43bf775c4: Pull complete e8fff3fce5e8: Pull complete 2a747598893c: Pull complete Digest: sha256:873f2d8776d15019d8a45d01a2be5db345823b3093a3538970f1cd441c57d91c Status: Downloaded newer image for couchbase/server:enterprise-4.5.0-DP1 b4ea7e969278b94fd9748003f7305e5ffcc30b398c6c6301982895550fd7fd24
Notice the image name is couchbase/server:enterprise-4.5.0-DP1.
The Couchbase Web Console is then accessible at http://<DOCKERHOST>:8091. The IP address of the Docker Host in my case is obtained using:
docker-machine ip couchbase
And so the Web Console looks like:
After configuring the services, the Console looks like:
Pre-configured Couchbase 4.5 Docker Container
Now, if you want a pre-configured server, try this:
docker run -d -p 8091-8093:8091-8093 -p 11210:11210 arungupta/couchbase-server
This image is created using Dockerfile and configures the following:
- Configures the memory
- Configures Index, Query, Data, and Full-text service
- Sets up username/password credentials
So, here are the images you need to use:
| Image | Purpose |
|---|---|
couchbase | Last GA version of Couchbase |
couchbase/server | Intermediate builds of Couchbase, such as Developer Preview, Beta, etc |
arungupta/couchbase | Last GA version of Couchbase, pre-configured |
arungupta/couchbase-server | Intermediate builds of Couchbase, pre-configured |
Easy, eh?
