codeblack/eventstore repository overview

Event Store⁠ in a Windows Container (Windows Server Core base-image).

GitHub repository⁠

⁠Getting Started

Pull the docker image

docker pull codeblack/eventstore:5.0.2

⁠Single node mode

Run the container using

docker run --name eventstore -d -p 2113:2113 -p 1113:1113 codeblack/eventstore:5.0.2

To be able to keep the data between container instances, map the data & log volumes to the host; e.g.

docker run --name eventstore -d -p 2113:2113 -p 1113:1113 -v C:\volumes\eventstore\data:C:\data -v C:\volumes\eventstore\logs:C:\logs codeblack/eventstore

⁠Web UI

If you publish the node's http port to a matching port on the host (i.e. you run the container with -p 2113:2113 as in the example above), you can use the browser to view the Event Store admin UI; e.g.

http://localhost:2113/

Where 2113 is the host-port you specified when running the container. Default username and password is admin and changeit respectively.

If you didn't publish the port to the host, get the docker IP address:

docker inspect -f '{{.NetworkSettings.Networks.nat.IPAddress }}' eventstore

Now use the browser to view the Event Store admin UI using the container IP address, the port is always 2113; e.g.

http://172.28.16.172:2113/

⁠Using your own configuration

When running the docker image, you have the ability to configure Event Store by providing environment variables. e.g.

docker run -d -p 2113:2113 -e EVENTSTORE_RUN_PROJECTIONS=None codeblack/eventstore:5.0.2

The environment variables override the values supplied via the configuration file.
