fhjima/docker-wirecloud repository overview

⁠Docker-WireCloud

This a docker image based on the original fiware/wirecloud:1.1⁠. The major difference is, that this image can also be configured to use a Postgres database in addition to squlite.

⁠How to use this image with Postgres

Firstly you need to have a postgres database up and runnung:

docker run -d --name postgres postgres

In order to change the database configuration you need a volume that gets bound to the wirecloud working directory in the container:

docker volume create --driver local \
    --opt type=none \
    --opt device=$configVolumePath \
    --opt o=bind \
    config_vol

Where $configVolumePath is an existing folder on your host machine.

Now you are good to start the wirecloud container:

docker run -d --name wirecloud -p 80:80 \
    -v config_vol:/opt/wirecloud_instance \
    --link "postgres:postgres" \
    fhjima/docker-wirecloud

This will start the standalone configuration of WireCloud. You can change this by opening the wirecloud_instance/settings.py in your mounted volume and change the database configuration:

...

DATABASES = {
      'default': {
             'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2',
             'NAME': 'postgres',
             'USER': 'postgres',
             'PASSWORD': 'postgres',
             'HOST': 'postgres',
             'PORT': '5432',
     }
}

...

Now you are good to restart you container:

docker restart wirecloud

Now you are almost done. All that is left is probably setting a new superuser:

docker exec -it wirecloud su wirecloud -c "python manage.py createsuperuser"
