DOCKER

BASIC DOCKER COMMANDS

• docker ps -a : List active containers (-a is for showing all containers, running and stopped)
• docker stop <id>/<name> : Stop running containers
• docker start <id>/<name> : Start stopped containers
• docker rm -f <id>/<name> : Remove containers (-f is for force the removal of a running container)
• docker exec -it <name> bash : Execute a command in a running container

Tips to delete all containers, use: docker rm -f $(docker ps -qa)

DOCKER RUN

$ docker run [OPTIONS] IMAGE[:TAG]

Parameters	Description
-d	Run container in background (daemon mode)
-it	creating an interactive container
-p	Publish a container port(s) to the host
--rm	Automatically remove the container when it exits
--hostname	Container host name
--name	Assign a name to the container

Exemple

$ docker run -d -ti -p 80:80 --rm --name web-ngnix --hostname nginx-container nginx:latest

use docker ps to list running containers

CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
86335dfeaa0b nginx:latest "/docker-entrypoint.…" 7 seconds ago Up 6 seconds 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, :::80->80/tcp web-ngnix

We can see that the container is running in daemon mode. That the exposure of the ports is well done and that the name of the container is the one that we specified in parameter

$ docker exec -it web-ngnix bash

The docker exec command runs a new command in a running container.

$ root@nginx-container:/#

We can now see that the name specified in --hostname is applied

DOCKER VOLUMES

The advantages of volumes :

• Easy to persist data.
• Convenient for making backups
• Share data between multiple containers
• Multi-containers and permissions

Basic command for managed volumes :

• docker volume ls : list volumes

• docker volume create <name> : creating a new volume

• docker volume rm <name> : delete a volume

• docker volume inspect <name> : inspection of a volume

The different types of volumes :

• Bind Mount : Bind mounts are dependent on the directory structure and OS of the host machine
• Volumes Docker : volumes are completely managed by Docker
• TMPFS : As opposed to volumes and bind mounts, a tmpfs mount is temporary, and only persisted in the host memory. When the container stops, the tmpfs mount is removed, and files written there won’t be persisted.

DOCKER RUN WITH VOLUMES

1. Bind Mount :

sudo mkdir /data (creation of mount folder is necessary otherwise error will appear when using docker run)

docker run -d --name TestBindMount --mount type=bind,source=/data/,target=/usr/share/nginx/html -p 80:80 nginx:latest

docker exec -ti TestBindMount bash

2. Volumes Docker :

docker volume create mynginx (optional because if the volume is not created, docker will do it)

docker run -d --name TestVolume --mount type=volume,src=mynginx,destination=/usr/share/nginx/html -p 81:80 nginx:latest

docker exec -ti TestVolume bash

3. Tmpfs:

docker run -d --name TestTmpfs --mount type=tmpfs,destination=/usr/share/nginx/html -p 82:80 nginx:latest

docker exec -ti TestTmpfs bash

To check data persistence you can delete all containers and recreate them !! (do not recreate the volumes)

CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
f0096643b045 nginx:latest "/docker-entrypoint.…" About a minute ago Up About a minute 0.0.0.0:82->80/tcp, :::82->80/tcp TestTmpfs
92260c1f5880 nginx:latest "/docker-entrypoint.…" About a minute ago Up About a minute 0.0.0.0:81->80/tcp, :::81->80/tcp TestVolume
dcad272f7531 nginx:latest "/docker-entrypoint.…" About a minute ago Up About a minute 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, :::80->80/tcp TestBindMount

In each container modify/create the /usr/share/nginx/html/index.html, Remove containers and recreate. Now check if the changes have been saved.

If you are running docker on your OS. You can admire the changes from your websites.

• TestBindMount : http://localhost:80
• TestVolume : http://localhost:81
• TestTmpfs : http://localhost:82

ENVIRONEMENT VARIABLE (ENV, ENVFILE...)

$ docker run -tid --name testenv --env MYVAR="123" debian:latest

Add to the docker environment the variable MYVAR=123

$ docker exec -ti testenv bash

Look in the container for the environment variables with the "env" command.

root@cb9e44034297:/# env
HOSTNAME=cb9e44034297
MYVAR=123
PWD=/
HOME=/root
TERM=xterm
SHLVL=1
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
_=/usr/bin/env

This method works but is not secure for example for passwords. To do this we will be able to add an env file ".ENV"

To do this, we will create a ".ENV" file in which we will put our environment variables. "vim .ENV"

MYPASSWORD="safepassword"
MYUSER="secretuser"
MYDB="BDD1"

$ docker run -tid --name testenv --env-file .ENV debian:latest
$ docker exec -ti testenv bash

Look in the container for the environment variables with the "env" command.

root@553c2ac8a657:/# env
HOSTNAME=553c2ac8a657
PWD=/
HOME=/root
MYPASSWORD="safepassword"
TERM=xterm
SHLVL=1
MYUSER="secretuser"
MYDB="BDD1"
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
_=/usr/bin/env

DOCKER NETWORK

• Communication between containers or outside
• Different types : bridge, host, none, overlay
• Be careful, a container does not have a fixed IP address (stop / start)

Basic command for managed network :

• docker network ls : List networks

• docker network create <name> : Create a network

• docker network rm <name> : Remove one or more networks

• docker network inspect <name> : Display detailed information on one or more networks

IPs are not static

In general, IPs in a network are not static.

The addressing of the Ips depends on the starting order of the containers.

Exemple

Create bridge network with name, mynetwork :

$ docker network create --driver=bridge mynetwork

Start two container connect to network "mynetwork"

$ docker run -d --name c1 --network mynetwork nginx:latest
$ docker run -d --name c2 --network mynetwork nginx:latest

Container 1 will have as ip address : 172.26.0.2

$ docker inspect c1 --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}'
172.26.0.2 

Container 2 will have as ip address : 172.26.0.3

$ docker inspect c2 --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}'
172.26.0.3

We will now reverse the boot order

sudo docker stop c1
sudo docker stop c2
### reverse containers start order ###
sudo docker start c2
sudo docker start c1

We can see that the ip addresses are no longer the same

docker inspect c1 --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}'
172.26.0.3

docker inspect c2 --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}'
172.26.0.2

If the ips change, how do the containers communicate ?

The containers will have to communicate with their name which redirects to the ip.

sudo docker exec -ti c1 bash root@54bb6caca8fb:/# apt update && apt install iputils-ping -y
### ping install ###
root@54bb6caca8fb:/# ping c2
PING c2 (172.26.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from c2.mynetwork (172.26.0.2): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.099 ms
64 bytes from c2.mynetwork (172.26.0.2): icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.204 ms

It will therefore be necessary to use the name of the containers, in our different configurations, applications, programs to communicate. Container names are used as domain names.

DOCKERFILE

Dockerfile is a configuration file for the purpose of creating an image

Dockerfile benefit

• Restart an image creation at any time
• Better configuration visibility
• Dockerfile editing script
• Image creation, production or development

Instructions Dockerfile

□	Instructions	Description
1	FROM	New build stage and sets the Base Image for subsequent instructions.
2	MAINTAINER	author
3	ARG	Defines a variable that users can pass when building the image
4	ENV	Environment variable
4	LABEL	Adding metadata
5	VOLUME	Create a mount point
6	RUN	Execute a command when creating the image
6	COPY // ADD	Add a file and directory in the image
6	WORKDIR	Allows you to change the current path
7	EXPOSE	Port listened by the container (metadata)
9	CMD // ENTRYPOINT	Execute a command when the container starts

BUILD A IMAGE

We will now create a mariadb image

Here are the different files we need to build the image

$ tree
.
├── 50-server.cnf # Mariadb configuration file
├── Dockerfile # The dockerfile to build the image
└── script.sh # Database configuration script

Dockerfile

# SPECIFIES DISTRIBUTIONFROM debian:buster

# COPY THE SCRIPT IN THE IMAGES AND MODIFY THE EXECUTION RIGHTS OF ITCOPY script.sh /
RUN chmod +x /script.sh
ENTRYPOINT [ "/script.sh" ]

By default, the server does not accept external connections, or rather, it only accepts local connections (from the LoopBack address: localhost = 127.0.0.1). We need change that !

Script.sh will be executed at entrypoint at runtime. this allow us to initialize the environment variables with an .envfile

script.sh

#!/bin/sh
service mysql start # CREATE USER #echo"CREATE USER '$BDD_USER'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '$BDD_USER_PASSWORD';"| mysql

mysqld

DOCKER BUILD :

$ docker build -t my-mariadb . ......
......
Successfully built 6ad0c955aa67
Successfully tagged my-mariadb:latest 👍

For this example, we'll change to \home and run my-mariadb image with an environment file.

$ cd /home

Create .env file in which username, user, password, database name, root password.

This information will be embedded in the container at runtime.

$ vim .env
BDD_USER=user
BDD_USER_PASSWORD=safepwd
BDD_NAME=wordpress
BDD_ROOT_PASSWORD=safepwdroot

To run the image you will need a specific env file and image name

$ docker run -tid --name testmariadb --env-file .env my-mariadb

The container is well executed, we can check with a docker ps

$ docker ps

Starter Pack [ MariaDB - Adminer ]

In the previous part we saw how to write a dockerfile and build the image using docker build

In this part we will see how to use docker compose and write a docker-compose.yml

But first, we will see the configuration and the creation of the dockerfile for Adminer.

Adminer is a tool for managing content in databases. It natively supports MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite,

Once installed, we will be able to connect to our database from the Web Adminer interface 😎

Dockerfile (Adminer)

# SPECIFIES DISTRIBUTIONFROM debian:buster

DOCKER-COMPOSE

What is Docker Compose?

Docker Compose is a tool that was developed to help define and share multi-container applications.

With Compose, we can create a YAML file to define the services and with a single command, can spin everything up or tear it all down.

BASIC DOCKER COMMANDS

• docker-compose build : To build the images
• docker-compose up -d : To run containers in daemon mode
• docker-compose up --build -d : To build images and run containers in daemon mode {my favorite :-)}
• docker-compose start/stop : To start and stop services
• docker-compose down : To stop and delete containers

It is important that the project structure is consistent with the dockerfiles and docker-compose.yml

$ tree .
├── adminer_directory
│ ├── 000-default.conf │ └── Dockerfile
├── docker-compose.yml
├── .env # same .env as before 
├── mariadb_directory
│ ├── 50-server.cnf # Same file seen above
│ ├── Dockerfile # Same file seen above
│ └── script.sh # Same file seen above
└── my_volume. # Persistent volume

docker-compose.yml

version: '3.5'services:adminer:container_name: Adminer # Name redirect to IP -> 172.X.X.Zbuild: adminer_directory/. # Build the dockerfile in ./adminer_directory/Dockerfile restart: always # Restart the container if it has stoppedports:- "80:80" # Redirect port 80 of Adminer on the hostnetworks:- mynetwork # Use mynetwork for communicate with mariadbmariadb:container_name: Mariadbbuild: mariadb_directory/.restart: alwaysnetworks:- mynetworkvolumes:- db:/var/lib/mysqlenv_file: .env# NETWORKnetworks:mynetwork:name : mynetworkdriver : bridge # Remember the different types of Networks, I showed you before ???# VOLUMEvolumes:db:driver: localdriver_opts: # Options specific to the drivertype: 'none'o: 'bind'device: ./my_volume # Persistent volume

The docker-compose.yml is edited.

The various essential elements of the infrastructure being positioned in the right place.

We will be able to launch our infrastructure using the command : docker-compose up --build -d .

This will build and then launch the images.

$ docker-compose up --build -d
....
....
Creating Mariadb ... done
Creating Adminer ... done

$ docker ps CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
5b1e14853a6e mdb-adm_adminer "/usr/sbin/apache2ct…" 1 minutes ago Up 1 minutes 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, :::80->80/tcp Adminer
4cb7c3cb88f8 mdb-adm_mariadb "/script.sh" 1 minutes ago Up 1 minutes Mariadb

The launch of our containers went well.

We will be able to connect to our database through the Adminer web interface using the host address.

For my part, the address of my host is 192.168.64.13, because i work remotely on a vm.

Most likely your host address is localhost or 127.0.0.1.

Adminer will ask us for the connection information.

This information corresponds to the information present in the ".env" file

The server address to enter is Mariadb

USERNAME = user
PASSWORD = safepwd
DATABASE = wordpress

Great the connection works 👍🏼

You can also log in as root. You just have to put in "root" in user and the password present in the env file.

PHP-FPM & NGNIX

In this part we will create a simple infrastructure allowing to separate nginx and php.

We will then use this same infrastructure to implement the SSL certificate and communicate only on port 443 to connect to our web server.

$ tree
.
├── docker-compose.yml
├── nginx
│ ├── conf
│ │ └── default
│ └── Dockerfile
└── wordpress
├── conf
│ ├── index.php
│ └── www.conf
└── Dockerfile

To work, nginx and php need to have access to the same file.

This is why our "wordress" volume is common to both containers.

Both will share the folder /var/www/html

docker-compose.yml

Connecting NGINX

Local Domains in Linux

Configure DNS Locally Using /etc/hosts File in Linux

Now open the /etc/hosts file using your editor of choice as follows

sudo vi /etc/hosts

Then add the lines below to the end of the file as shown in the screen shot below.

127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255	broadcasthost
::1 localhost
192.168.64.13	tliot.42.fr # <--- Principal Domains

192.168.64.13	*.tliot.42.fr # <--- all subdomain (optional)

Next, test if everything is working well as expected, using the ping command.

$ ping tliot.42.fr

Setup a self-signed SSL certificate

Create the self-signed SSL certificate:

RUN openssl req \
-x509 \
-nodes \
-days 365 \
-newkey rsa:2048 \
-keyout /etc/ssl/private/nginx-selfsigned.key \
-out /etc/ssl/certs/nginx-selfsigned.crt \
-subj '/C=FR/ST=Ile-de-France/L=Paris/O=42/OU=42Paris/CN=TLIOT/UID=TTT'

Create a new configuration snippet file for Nginx:

RUN echo "ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/nginx-selfsigned.crt;\nssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/nginx-selfsigned.key;" > /etc/nginx/snippets/self-signed.conf

Create a strong Diffie-Hellman group:

RUN openssl dhparam -out /etc/nginx/dhparam.pem 2048

Create a configuration snippet with strong encryption settings:

COPY ./conf/ssl-params.conf /etc/nginx/snippets/

ssl-params.conf

ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
ssl_dhparam /etc/nginx/dhparam.pem; ssl_ciphers EECDH+AESGCM:EDH+AESGCM;
ssl_ecdh_curve secp384r1;
ssl_session_timeout 10m;
ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m;
ssl_session_tickets off;
ssl_stapling on;
ssl_stapling_verify on;

resolver_timeout 5s;
add_header X-Frame-Options DENY;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";

Configure Nginx site to use certificate:

server {
listen 443 ssl default_server; <--- 80 to 443
listen [::]:443 ssl default_server; <--- 80 to 443
server_name tliot.42.fr; <--- _ to tliot.42.fr

}
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri = 404;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass wordpress:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
}
}

Configure docker-compose.yml site to use 443:

docker-compose.yml

 ngnix:
container_name: ngnix
build: ./nginx/
restart: always
volumes:
- WordPress:/var/www/html
depends_on:
- wordpress
ports:
- "443:443" <--- 80:80 to 443:443
networks:
- mynetwork

Testing the SSL Server

Next, test whether the SSL encryption is working.

On your browser, type the prefix http:// then your domain name:

https://server_domain

Since the certificate is not already signed by a trusted certificate authority, you will most likely get a warning like the one below:

You will see a warning that may pop-up because the SSL certificate created earlier isn’t signed by a trusted certificate authority:

It's goood 👍🏼
