Create Database from docker-compose.yml - mongodb

I'm trying create a new database called "slack-ruby-bot-server-events_sample_development" from my docker-compose.yml, but when I enter into the container for check the databases, sadly does not exist.
Here my docker-compose.yml
version: '3.9'
services:
hermes:
depends_on:
- mongodb
build:
context: ./hermes-app/
container_name: hermes
tty: true
ports:
- "5000:5000"
networks:
- netrmes
mongodb:
image: 'bitnami/mongodb:5.0.8'
container_name: mongodb
restart: on-failure
environment:
- MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE=${MONGODB_DATABASE}
- MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=${MONGODB_ROOT_USER}
- MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=${MONGODB_ROOT_PASSWORD}
ports:
- "27017:27017"
volumes:
- 'mongodb_data:/bitnami/mongodb'
networks:
- netrmes
networks:
netrmes:
driver: bridge
volumes:
mongodb_data:
driver: local
The root_user and root_password is created successfully, but when i run the command "mongosh" into the container, the database in use is "test".
Anyone knows the way to set up that?, thanks in advance.

I think this variable "MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE" is just used to defined the default DB that the
JS scripts in /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/*.js default to if you
insert some data or init something (indexes, create timeseries
collections, …). It’s like the default use myDB that you can use.
If you don’t create anything in that DB (I don’t see any script in
here) then nothing happens and the DB isn’t created. MongoDB will
create it if you actually store something in there. Else there is no
reason to create an empty vessel.

DOCKER_Cannot run multiple services by docker-compose

I'm set up docker compose for my project with 2 services: spring-boot and postgresql. I created Dockerfile and docker-compose,yml as below:
Dockerfile :
FROM openjdk:8-jdk-alpine
MAINTAINER linhan.com
COPY target/LinhAn-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar linhan-server-1.0.0.jar
ENTRYPOINT ["java","-jar","/linhan-server-1.0.0.jar"]
docker-compose.yml:
version: '2'
services:
spring_boot:
image: 'linhan'
build: .
container_name: api
ports:
- "8080:8080"
depends_on:
- postgres
environment:
- SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL=jdbc:jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/test_db
- SPRING_DATASOURCE_USERNAME=user
- SPRING_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD=123456
- SPRING_JPA_HIBERNATE_DDL_AUTO=update
postgres:
image: 'postgres:13.1-alpine'
container_name: db
environment:
- POSTGRES_USER=user
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=123456
Then, when I type docker-compose up in terminal, postgres ran only, spring boot still not.
I searched google for solution but seems no hope. Please help me, thanks a lot!!!!!
I think you need to change the SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL to reference your service name instead of localhost. The service name is resolved automatically to your service since all services are part of the default_network by default in docker-compose.
- SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL=jdbc:jdbc:postgresql://postgres:5432/test_db
Also, for clarity I would suggest you add the port to your docker-compose postgres service, so it is clear which port is being used, even if it is the default:
postgres:
image: 'postgres:13.1-alpine'
container_name: db
ports:
- "5432"
environment:
- POSTGRES_USER=user
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=123456
Also, another suggestion would be to try and use a healthcheck to see if your database service becomes available instead of a simple depends_on. The short version will mark the dependency fulfilled as soon as the container is Running, regardless of the availability of the database.
Either that, or you can add application logic to retry database connection in case of failure.

Docker wipes out mongoDB container data

I have created a program and tested that works just fine. I decided to dockerize it, and it seems after maybe some hours or few days the data of mongoDB container get all deleted. The docker-compose.yml file:
version: '3'
services:
node:
restart: always
build: ./nodeServer
container_name: nodeserver
ports:
- 5000:5000
depends_on:
- database
networks:
twitter_articles:
ipv4_address: 172.24.0.2
environment:
- TZ=Europe/Athens
database:
restart: always
build: ./mongoDump/database
container_name: mongodb
ports:
- 27017:27017
networks:
twitter_articles:
ipv4_address: 172.24.0.4
volumes:
- ./data:/data/db
environment:
- TZ=Europe/Athens
pythonscript:
restart: always
build: ./python
container_name: pythonscript
depends_on:
- database
networks:
twitter_articles:
ipv4_address: 172.24.0.3
environment:
- TZ=Europe/Athens
networks:
twitter_articles:
ipam:
config:
- subnet: 172.24.0.0/24
And the three Dockerfile's that they are builded:
nodeserver:
FROM node:14.16.1
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY . ./
CMD [ "npm", "start"]
mongodb:
FROM mongo:5.0.3
CMD docker-entrypoint.sh mongod
pythonscript
FROM python:3.9
COPY requirements.txt ./
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
COPY . ./
CMD [ "python", "-u", "./init2.py" ]
As mentioned before without Docker the app works just fine and there isn't that kind of behaviour of database getting wiped out. I have tried also internal Docker storage which also does the same thing. I have tried to check the logs and I saw that there is an error happening in pythonscript container each time database wipes out. I know that an error should happen in pythonscript but there is no such a code anywhere in the app to perform deletion of collections or databases (also without Docker this error still happens but nothing gets deleted).
Any ideas?
You can create an external volume and add the data of the mongoDB into it. That way your data doesn't get wiped even when you turn off your docker-compose.
version: '3'
services:
node:
restart: always
build: ./nodeServer
container_name: nodeserver
ports:
- 5000:5000
depends_on:

twitter_articles:
ipv4_address: 172.24.0.2
environment:

database:
restart: always
build: ./mongoDump/database
container_name: mongodb

networks:
twitter_articles:
ipam:
config:
- subnet: 172.24.0.0/24
volumes:
mongo_data:
external: true
now you have to create a volume in your docker using
docker volume create --name=mongo_data
then
docker-compose down
and
docker-compose up --build -d
I have been advised that it is always better idea to save data outside of docker container in separate volume. Look for this tutorial volumes.
You need to make an persistant volume for your database, because as you noted on your docker-compose.yml file you got:
restart: always
so everytime your python script got an error, it's stopped and it's depending on Mariadb, so it's restarted and data got wiped.
Make sure the data is stored outside the docker container because are treated like cattles and not pets. New containers are created freshly with no data from previous version.
I'd ensure that container user has a pre-configured ID with write access to the host folder targeted for db data persistence.
I'd use an absolute path on the host side too when mapping persistent data folders in Docker.
Referring to:
volumes:
- ./data:/data/db

Postgres Database not being Created by Docker-Compose.yml file

The container stops at 2022-01-19 15:37:02.916 UTC [49] LOG: database system is ready to accept connections and never actually executes "CREATE DATABASE"
Because the database isn't created, my connected Go API isn't functioning properly. The docker-compose should be creating the database "core", spinning up the redis instance, and then spinning up the web service. Afterwards, I typically pull up the migrate container which makes my database migrations. All of my other devices (macOS, windows, and linux), function properly and bring up the database when docker-compose up web is run.
here is warning from postgresql docker image page:
Warning: scripts in /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d are only run if you start the container with a data directory that is empty; any pre-existing database will be left untouched on container startup. One common problem is that if one of your /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d scripts fails (which will cause the entrypoint script to exit) and your orchestrator restarts the container with the already initialized data directory, it will not continue on with your scripts.
so one of the reason that your host you are using has something in ./pgdata
also you they have pretty detailed documentation on how you can extend image or run something on startup - you can actually clean up everything on first startup.

Docker-compose postgresql integration

I'm new to docker and am trying to make a composed image consisting of services, nginx and postgresql database. I'm following the tutorial here : http://www.patricksoftwareblog.com/how-to-use-docker-and-docker-compose-to-create-a-flask-application/
And have been successful up to adding postgresql where I'm having difficulties and questions.
My docker-compose.yml:
version : '2'
services:
web:
restart: always
build: ./home/admin/
expose:
- "8000"
nginx:
restart: always
build: ./etc/nginx
ports:
- "80:80"
volumes:
- /www/static
volumes_from:
- web
depends_on:
- web
data:
image: postgres:9.6
volumes:
- /var/lib/postgresql
command: "true"
postgres:
restart: always
build: ./var/lib/postgresql
volumes_from:
- data
ports:
- "5432:5432"
I have included his docker generator script under /var/lib/postgresql but keep facing ERROR: Dockerfile parse error line 1: unknown instruction: IMPORT when I run 'docker-compose build'.
If I leave in the 'data' section & remove the postgres section in my docker-compose.yml file, my containers seemingly run fine but I'm unsure if postgresql is properly running at all. I'm able to GET using curl but still - I'm unsure how to go about confirming postgres specifics to confirm a proper environment and would appreciate examples on this topic in particular.
I was also wondering if running my docker-compose containers then simply running a separate postgresql container could also function if provided the correct ports.
Thank you!

How to initialize a database on a data volume container?

Here my simple scenario, I have a simple Flaskapp that connect to a postgres this way:
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI='postgresql://username:secretpassword#postgres:5432/myproj'
And I have a simple docker-compose.yml:
version: '2'
services:
postgres:
image: postgres:latest
volumes_from:
- data
environment:
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: secretpassword
POSTGRES_USER: username
POSTGRES_DB: myproj
ports:
- "5432:5432"
web:
build: .
volumes_from:
- app
ports:
- "5000:5000"
depends_on:
- postgres
data:
image: postgres:latest
volumes:
- /var/lib/postgresql/data
command: "true"
app:
build: .
volumes:
- .:/myproj
command: "true"
I need to lunch a made by myself flask script, that creates the tables for my app:
export FLASK_APP='./myproj/__init__.py'
flask createdbs
I have put these 2 operation in the Dockerfile of my web service but because my service and the postgres service have a depends_on relationship, the postgres db host is not available during the building phase.
Any suggestion on the best way to achieve this ? I want to avoid hacks, I would prefer respect a correct Docker workflow.
One way to do it is to use the "command" keyword:
https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/#/command
(look also at entrypoint keyword)
web:
build: .
volumes_from:
- app
ports:
- "5000:5000"
depends_on:
- postgres
command: "export FLASK_APP='./myproj/__init__.py' && flask createdbs"
or using command just to launch your flask script and let your export in your dockerfile.
Note that "depends_on" only start one container before the other, but do not wait your postgres database to be ready. If you want to wait until postgres is ready to answer, you can use scripts like "wait-for-it.sh postgres:5432" that are well explained in docker-compose doc: https://docs.docker.com/compose/startup-order/
