ACS docker-compose with external volume for alfresco repo and solr indexes

[d5m1]

Hi,

Could anyone provide an example of an ACS (latest version if possible) docker-compose, and related Dockerfiles, using an external DB and external volumes?

Thanks in advance

Regards

I guess that could help:

Hi,

Thanks for the reponse, Angel.

Volumes used in the provided link just applies to postgres and solr, what I need is to set an external (not bind mount) volume for the alfresco repo, which in V6.2.2 uses a "shared file store" in this manner:

services:
alfresco:

JAVA_OPTS: "

"

.......

shared-file-store:

mem_limit: 512m
environment:
JAVA_OPTS: " -Xms256m -Xmx512m"

volumes:

.....

volumes:
shared-file-store-volume:
driver_opts:

device: tmpfs

On the other hand, I need to use an external, Oracle DB.

Thanks for your answer.

What about this?

-Dsfs.url=http://shared-file-store:8099/

Won't be alfresco repo using the shared file store?

[kaynezhang]

It is used for asynchronously content transformation(also text extraction for full text search).

ACS community edition dose not use this property now. 

[d5m1]

Thanks for the clarification.

I was finally able to run ACS through the next docker-compose, based on the template provided by Alfresco from the docs site (https://www.alfresco.com/platform/content-services-ecm/trial/download):

- Dockerfile for the "sync-service" service:

RUN chgrp -R Alfresco /opt/alfresco-sync-service
RUN chown -R dsync:Alfresco /opt/alfresco-sync-service
USER dsync

Do you see anything wrongor improvable?

BTW, Is there a new, official docker-compose for version 3 (this ones uses version 2, quite old)? 

[kaynezhang]

Version 2 is the latest version ,https://github.com/Alfresco/acs-deployment/tree/master/docker-compose

[d5m1]

Hi,

What about the /opt/alfresco-search-services/contentstore? Shouldn't it be also mapped to an external volume?
Regards

[kaynezhang]

You can map index data directory ,contentstore directory,solrhome directory out based on your requirements

 - your data pah :/opt/alfresco-search-services/data
- your contentstore pah :/opt/alfresco-search-services/contentsotre
- your solr home path:/opt/alfresco-search-services/solrhome
