I’d like to install Discourse on our Kubernetes cluster. Kubernetes does not use the docker command to deploy images, so I’d need to build a Discourse image locally, push it to our private Docker registry, and then have Kubernetes pull the image from there. This is how we deploy other Docker-based…

There are a bunch of tricks, you can always specify a custom base image in you yaml file eg: Eg: message_bus/examples/chat/docker_container/chat.yml at main · discourse/message_bus · GitHub But you should not really need to do that, for upgrades simply bootstrap a new image and push that our, you …

Okay, I think I’m missing something about how the launcher script (or pups) works here. I have one YAML file for each instance, which looks like this: discourse@hawthorn:~/discourse$ cat containers/clicsargent.yml templates: - "templates/torchbox-web.template.yml" - "private/clicsargent.templ…

Sounds like a pups bug / problem, so that’s where you’ll want to focus your debug efforts.

Yeah @tgxworld mentioned this to me in the past… it is a launcher bug, it does not do 2 levels of inheritance, only 1. I want to get it fixed, maybe try to patch that bash file up to support it

Have you considered using bitnami/discourse - Docker Image ? It seems with that container you can just supply env vars and it’s not required to run a launcher or your own images.. I think.. :slight_smile: How amazing would a Kubernetes Helm Chart, or even an Operator for Discourse be… :open_mouth:

Sure, please see [이미지] Can Discourse ship frequent Docker images that do not need to be bootstrapped? Development There is this open issue (which I just closed) on Discourse Docker repo asking Discourse should behave like a standard docker image a dock…

Tried bitnami/discourse:latest (1.8.3-dirty as of date) and having a few issues with sidekiq https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-discourse/issues/25 And there’s probably no way for me to fix it myself as bitnami’s packaging is all a black-box.

I bootstrap with the following in containers/app.yml: templates: - "templates/web.template.yml" - "templates/redis.template.yml" env: LANG: en_US.UTF-8 DISCOURSE_HOSTNAME: 'discourse.mysite.org' DISCOURSE_DB_USERNAME: discourseuser DISCOURSE_DB_NAME: discourse DISCOURSE_DEVELOPER_EMA…

We usually use NGINX+Unicorn as our minimal deployment unit and boot to runit. This should run find with minimal hacking. I there a reason why you are trying to decompose this further? Also I would definitely decompose redis in this kind of setup. Mixing it with the app makes it very hard to scale. …

Hi Sam, Thanks for replying. No, I have no particular reason to decompose, except that Kubernetes expects the entrypoint process to not exit and monitors that process and if it dies it restarts the container. Ideally I would like to run supervisord to spawn and monitor the main processes. So you’r…
