docker-rt's Introduction

docker-rt
=========

This is a docker image for running Best Practical's RT (Request Tracker), a
ticket tracking system.

It's currently a work in progress, but it includes

  RT
  nginx
  postfix + spamassassin

And exposes the RT web interface on container port 80 and an RT-connected MTA on
container port 25.

from scratch
------------

Start a postgres container:

  docker run -d \
    -e POSTGRESQL_USER=rt_user \
    -e POSTGRESQL_PASS=rt_pass \
    -e POSTGRESQL_DB=rt4 \
    --name rtdb \
    orchardup/postgresql

Run a one-off container to configure the database:

  docker run \
    --link rtdb:db \
    -e DATABASE_USER=rt_user \
    -e DATABASE_PASS=rt_pass \
    -e DATABASE_NAME=rt4 \
    nickstenning/rt \
    /usr/bin/rtinit

Now the database is initialised and you can run RT proper:

  docker run -d \
    --link rtdb:db \
    -p 25 \
    -p 80 \
    -e DATABASE_USER=rt_user \
    -e DATABASE_PASS=rt_pass \
    -e DATABASE_NAME=rt4 \
    nickstenning/rt

To see the ports on which the web and mail interfaces are exposed, run `docker ps`.

run against a pre-existing database
-----------------------------------

You can provide the DATABASE_HOST directly:

  docker run -d \
    -p 25 \
    -p 80 \
    -e DATABASE_HOST=dbserver \
    -e DATABASE_USER=rt_user \
    -e DATABASE_PASS=rt_pass \
    -e DATABASE_NAME=rt4 \
    nickstenning/rt

configuration
-------------

This image provides some limited support for customising the deployment using
environment variables. See RT_SiteConfig.pm for details.

docker-rt's Issues

build image came across this issue

2014/04/21 10:40:13 The command [/bin/sh -c make -C /src/${RT} testdeps 2>/dev/null | fgrep ...MISSING | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort -u | xargs c
panm] returned a non-zero code: 123

Mismatch on DATABASE_PASS/PASSWORD

I tracked an issue in the scripts to some using DATABASE_PASS and some using DATABASE_PASSWORD, most notably the RT_SiteConfig.pm script, and rninit. Though it's possible that the scripts are consistent, and the documentation is out of sync.

I'll try and submit a pull request shortly.

nickstenning/rt not found

Docker commands fails, and browsing through https://hub.docker.com/u/nickstenning I can't find the repo.

VOLUME /opt/rt4 makes it difficult to make modifications to image

I wanted to use your image + install an extension. I created this Dockerfile:

FROM netsandbox/request-tracker

COPY rt-extension-rest2 /usr/local/src/rt-extension-rest2
RUN cd /usr/local/src/rt-extension-rest2 && \
    perl Makefile.PL && \
    make && \
    make install

But since you have VOLUME /opt/rt4, everything from the make install gets lost.

Since all files written by rt reside under /opt/rt4/var, it makes sense to change the volume to that path.

Work in progress?

You say in the README that this is a work in progress. Could you give some indication of what needs work?
