#docker - March 2019

I had naively tried to implement this 4 years ago using btsync and the docker v1 registry

lets just say, it didn’t work 😃 (at all!)

Hi. I am new to docker, we do have java web applications(java+tomcat) running nginx as reverseproxy. I am not sure how to run both tomcat and nginx in a same container, can anyone Please help me out ?

@rohit are you using kubernetes?

i am just at the beginning stage but eventually would like to use k8s maybe EKS as we run our infrastructure in AWS

so nginx will be Kubernetes Ingress https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/ingress/

This is very helpful, will go through these articles

and how do you pass secrets to docker containers ?

Let's say if i have a properties file and the value needs to be populated at run time, how would i do that in containers world ?

we use https://github.com/segmentio/chamber to store secrets to SSM Parameter Store. Then, for example when deploying from a CI/CD pipeline, we use chamber to read the secrets from SSM and populate ENV vars with the secrets. Then we use helmfile to deploy a Kubernetes app that reads the ENV vars, e.g. https://github.com/cloudposse/helmfiles/blob/master/releases/datadog.yaml#L39

@Andriy Knysh (Cloud Posse) thanks for pointing me to the right tools. To begin with, if i just want to pass secrets to my docker container, how do i achieve that ?

@Andriy Knysh (Cloud Posse) thank you very much. I am still not able to connect all the dots

maybe because i am new to this

@rohit can I help you?

what part are you struggling with?

Anyone using https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko ?
