Also see the SoftLayer Jumpgate project page⁠

Based on instructions from my blog⁠

⁠Jumpgate version

master branch pulls jumpgate git master which can be found here⁠

⁠Building the image

docker build -t jumpgate .

⁠Running the image

The jumpgate image it setup to bind on port 5000 inside the container's network namespace, and thus you need to map it to a port on your host.

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 jumpgate

The Jumpgate image is setup with a random ADMIN_TOKEN which you can find in /etc/jumpgate.conf inside the container. This random token is generated on image build.

If you want to override jumpgate.conf settings in the container you can attach a docker volume which contains a jumpgate.conf with conf property overrides and map it into /etc/jumpgate/ in the container.

For example suppose you want to set the Jumpgate log_level to DEBUG and set the admin_token to T0PSECR8T:

• Create a jumpgate directory on the host which contains the jumpgate.conf file.

• In that jumpgate.conf file specify any conf overrides you want to self. For example:

[DEFAULT]
log_level = DEBUG
admin_token = T0PSECR8T

• When starting the jumpgate container, map your jumpgate directory to /etc/jumpgate directory in the container:

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 -v /opt/jumpgate:/etc/jumpgate jumpgate

• The resulting container will parse you bind mounted conf file after parsing the conf setup by the image build. This allows you to overrite any conf properties you want.
