Bitnami package for Spring Cloud Skipper

What is Spring Cloud Skipper?

A package manager that installs, upgrades, and rolls back Spring Boot applications on multiple Cloud Platforms. Skipper can be used as part of implementing the practice of Continuous Deployment.

Overview of Spring Cloud Skipper

TL;DR

docker run --name spring-cloud-skipper bitnami/spring-cloud-skipper:latest

Why use Bitnami Images?

  • 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.
  • All our images are based on minideb -a minimalist Debian based container image that gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading Linux distribution- or scratch -an explicitly empty image-.
  • All Bitnami images available in Docker Hub are signed with Notation. Check this post to know how to verify the integrity of the images.
  • Bitnami container images are released on a regular basis with the latest distribution packages available.

Looking to use Spring Cloud Skipper in production? Try VMware Tanzu Application Catalog, the commercial edition of the Bitnami catalog.

How to deploy Skipper in Kubernetes?

Deploying Bitnami applications as Helm Charts is the easiest way to get started with our applications on Kubernetes. Read more about the installation in the Bitnami Spring Cloud Data Flow Chart GitHub repository.

Why use a non-root container?

Non-root container images add an extra layer of security and are generally recommended for production environments. However, because they run as a non-root user, privileged tasks are typically off-limits. Learn more about non-root containers in our docs.

Only latest stable branch maintained in the free Bitnami catalog

Starting December 10th 2024, only the latest stable branch of any container will receive updates in the free Bitnami catalog. To access up-to-date releases for all upstream-supported branches, consider upgrading to Bitnami Premium. Previous versions already released will not be deleted. They are still available to pull from DockerHub.

Please check the Bitnami Premium page in our partner Arrow Electronics for more information.

Supported tags and respective Dockerfile links

Learn more about the Bitnami tagging policy and the difference between rolling tags and immutable tags in our documentation page.

You can see the equivalence between the different tags by taking a look at the tags-info.yaml file present in the branch folder, i.e bitnami/ASSET/BRANCH/DISTRO/tags-info.yaml.

Get this image

The recommended way to get the Bitnami spring-cloud-skipper Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.

docker pull bitnami/spring-cloud-skipper:latest

To use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the list of available versions in the Docker Hub Registry.

docker pull bitnami/spring-cloud-skipper:[TAG]

If you wish, you can also build the image yourself by cloning the repository, changing to the directory containing the Dockerfile and executing the docker build command. Remember to replace the APP, VERSION and OPERATING-SYSTEM path placeholders in the example command below with the correct values.

git clone https://github.com/bitnami/containers.git
cd bitnami/APP/VERSION/OPERATING-SYSTEM
docker build -t bitnami/APP:latest .

Configuring database

A relational database is used to store stream and task definitions as well as the state of executed tasks. Spring Cloud Skipper provides schemas for H2, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Db2, and SQL Server. Use the following environment to configure the connection.

  • SPRING_DATASOURCE_URL=jdbc:mariadb://mariadb-skipper:3306/skipper?useMysqlMetadata=true
  • SPRING_DATASOURCE_USERNAME=bn_skipper
  • SPRING_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD=bn_skipper
  • SPRING_DATASOURCE_DRIVER_CLASS_NAME=org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver

Consult the spring-cloud-skipper Reference Documentation to find the completed list of documentation.

In the same way, you might need to customize the JVM. Use the JAVA_OPTS environment variable for this purpose.

Notable Changes

Starting January 16, 2024
  • The docker-compose.yaml file has been removed, as it was solely intended for internal testing purposes.
