brimstone/chef-server repository overview

⁠chef-server

This is a container for chef-server. Tags are chef-server versions.

⁠usage

The following is recommended: $ docker run -d -p 443:443 -v /var/backups/containers/chef:/var/backups brimstone/chef-server:11.0.11

The container supports mapping /var/backups in to achieve some level of persistence between container runs. Backups are currently configured to run to that directory every 5 minutes and restores are done at boot.

This container takes several seconds to boot as it's running upstart and everything that chef-server entails, erlang, java, ruby on rails, nginx, etc.

⁠warnings

Your network needs to resolve chef-server to something. Preferably the docker container or host. Blame erlang.
