Docker Start Container Docker For Macpicturelasopa Mac

Docker provides restart policies to control whether your containers start automatically when they exit, or when Docker restarts. Restart policies ensure that linked containers are started in the correct order. Docker recommends that you use restart policies, and avoid using process managers to start containers. Apache ZooKeeper is an open-source server which enables highly reliable distributed coordination.

A container's main running process is the ENTRYPOINT and/or CMD at theend of the Dockerfile. It is generally recommended that you separate areas ofconcern by using one service per container. That service may fork into multipleprocesses (for example, Apache web server starts multiple worker processes).It's ok to have multiple processes, but to get the most benefit out of Docker,avoid one container being responsible for multiple aspects of your overallapplication. You can connect multiple containers using user-defined networks andshared volumes.

The container's main process is responsible for managing all processes that itstarts. In some cases, the main process isn't well-designed, and doesn't handle'reaping' (stopping) child processes gracefully when the container exits. Ifyour process falls into this category, you can use the --init option when yourun the container. The --init flag inserts a tiny init-process into thecontainer as the main process, and handles reaping of all processes when thecontainer exits. Handling such processes this way is superior to using afull-fledged init process such as sysvinit, upstart, or systemd to handleprocess lifecycle within your container.

If you need to run more than one service within a container, you can accomplishthis in a few different ways.

• Put all of your commands in a wrapper script, complete with testing anddebugging information. Run the wrapper script as your CMD. This is a verynaive example. First, the wrapper script:

  Next, the Dockerfile:

• If you have one main process that needs to start first and stay running butyou temporarily need to run some other processes (perhaps to interact withthe main process) then you can use bash's job control to facilitate that.First, the wrapper script:

• Use a process manager like supervisord. This is a moderately heavy-weightapproach that requires you to package supervisord and its configuration inyour image (or base your image on one that includes supervisord), along withthe different applications it manages. Then you start supervisord, whichmanages your processes for you. Here is an example Dockerfile using thisapproach, that assumes the pre-written supervisord.conf, my_first_process,and my_second_process files all exist in the same directory as yourDockerfile.
