Drupal is one of the most versatile open source content management systems on the market. Drupal is built for high performance and is scalable to many servers, has easy integration via REST, JSON, SOAP and other formats, and features a whopping 15,000 plugins to extend and customize the application for just about any type of website.
$ curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-drupal/master/docker-compose.yml > docker-compose.yml
$ docker-compose up -dWARNING: This is a beta configuration, currently unsupported.
Get the raw URL pointing to the kubernetes.yml manifest and use kubectl to create the resources on your Kubernetes cluster like so:
$ kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-drupal/master/kubernetes.yml- Bitnami closely tracks upstream source changes and promptly publishes new versions of this image using our automated systems.
- With Bitnami images the latest bug fixes and features are available as soon as possible.
- Bitnami containers, virtual machines and cloud images use the same components and configuration approach - making it easy to switch between formats based on your project needs.
- Bitnami images are built on CircleCI and automatically pushed to the Docker Hub.
- All our images are based on minideb a minimalist Debian based container image which gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading linux distribution.
To run this application you need Docker Engine 1.10.0. Docker Compose is recommended with a version 1.6.0 or later.
Running Drupal with a database server is the recommended way. You can either use docker-compose or run the containers manually.
This is the recommended way to run Drupal. You can use the following docker-compose.yml template:
version: '2'
services:
mariadb:
image: 'bitnami/mariadb:latest'
environment:
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
volumes:
- 'mariadb_data:/bitnami'
drupal:
image: 'bitnami/drupal:latest'
ports:
- '80:80'
- '443:443'
volumes:
- 'drupal_data:/bitnami'
depends_on:
- mariadb
volumes:
mariadb_data:
driver: local
drupal_data:
driver: localIf you want to run the application manually instead of using docker-compose, these are the basic steps you need to run:
- Create a new network for the application and the database:
$ docker network create drupal-tier- Start a MariaDB database in the network generated:
$ docker run -d --name mariadb -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes --net drupal-tier bitnami/mariadb:latestNote: You need to give the container a name in order to Drupal to resolve the host
- Run the Drupal container:
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 --name drupal --net drupal-tier bitnami/drupal:latestThen you can access your application at http://your-ip/
If you remove the container all your data and configurations will be lost, and the next time you run the image the database will be reinitialized. To avoid this loss of data, you should mount a volume that will persist even after the container is removed.
For persistence you should mount a volume at the /bitnami path. Additionally you should mount a volume for persistence of the MariaDB data.
The above examples define docker volumes namely mariadb_data and drupal_data. The Drupal application state will persist as long as these volumes are not removed.
To avoid inadvertent removal of these volumes you can mount host directories as data volumes. Alternatively you can make use of volume plugins to host the volume data.
This requires a minor change to the docker-compose.yml template previously shown:
version: '2'
services:
mariadb:
image: 'bitnami/mariadb:latest'
environment:
- ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
volumes:
- '/path/to/mariadb-persistence:/bitnami'
drupal:
image: 'bitnami/drupal:latest'
depends_on:
- mariadb
ports:
- '80:80'
- '443:443'
volumes:
- '/path/to/drupal-persistence:/bitnami'- Create a network (if it does not exist):
$ docker network create drupal-tier- Create a MariaDB container with host volume:
$ docker run -d --name mariadb -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
--net drupal-tier \
--volume /path/to/mariadb-persistence:/bitnami \
bitnami/mariadb:latestNote: You need to give the container a name in order to Drupal to resolve the host
- Create the Drupal container with host volumes:
$ docker run -d --name drupal -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
--net drupal-tier \
--volume /path/to/drupal-persistence:/bitnami \
bitnami/drupal:latestBitnami provides up-to-date versions of MariaDB and Drupal, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container. We will cover here the upgrade of the Drupal container. For the MariaDB upgrade see https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-mariadb/blob/master/README.md#upgrade-this-image
- Get the updated images:
$ docker pull bitnami/drupal:latest- Stop your container
- For docker-compose:
$ docker-compose stop drupal - For manual execution:
$ docker stop drupal
- Take a snapshot of the application state
$ rsync -a /path/to/drupal-persistence /path/to/drupal-persistence.bkp.$(date +%Y%m%d-%H.%M.%S)Additionally, snapshot the MariaDB data
You can use these snapshots to restore the application state should the upgrade fail.
- Remove the stopped container
- For docker-compose:
$ docker-compose rm drupal - For manual execution:
$ docker rm drupal
- Run the new image
- For docker-compose:
$ docker-compose start drupal - For manual execution (mount the directories if needed):
docker run --name drupal bitnami/drupal:latest
When you start the drupal image, you can adjust the configuration of the instance by passing one or more environment variables either on the docker-compose file or on the docker run command line. If you want to add a new environment variable:
- For docker-compose add the variable name and value under the application section:
drupal:
image: bitnami/drupal:latest
ports:
- 80:80
- 443:443
environment:
- DRUPAL_PASSWORD=my_password- For manual execution add a
-eoption with each variable and value:
$ docker run -d --name drupal -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
-e DRUPAL_PASSWORD=my_password \
--net drupal-tier \
--volume /path/to/drupal-persistence:/bitnami \
bitnami/drupal:latestAvailable variables:
DRUPAL_USERNAME: Drupal application username. Default: userDRUPAL_PASSWORD: Drupal application password. Default: bitnamiDRUPAL_EMAIL: Drupal application email. Default: [email protected]MARIADB_USER: Root user for the MariaDB database. Default: rootMARIADB_PASSWORD: Root password for the MariaDB.MARIADB_HOST: Hostname for MariaDB server. Default: mariadbMARIADB_PORT_NUMBER: Port used by MariaDB server. Default: 3306
