prosody-docker

This is for running prosody XMPP server software as the Netz39 Jabber-Server and maybe you can use it, too?!

Based on more or less official prosody/prosody-docker with ideas from OpusVL/prosody-docker and unclev/prosody-docker-extended …

Usage

Build

docker build --tag prosody:0.11 .

(Or whatever tag you like or need for your local deployments.)

Run

Some things like the configuration file and the database obviously reside outside of any image or container. We used sqlite as database, for other databases, you're on your own. A local directory/file tree could look like this:

.
├── etc
│   └── prosody
│       └── prosody.cfg.lua
└── var
    ├── lib
    │   └── prosody
    │       └── prosody.sqlite
    └── log
        └── prosody

You mount those as volumes to different points. Some ports have to be exposed to the host.

You can use a script to call docker with the required options like this and name it run.sh and call it to start the container:

#!/bin/sh
docker run -d --name prosody --rm \
        -p 5222:5222 -p 5269:5269 \
        -v /srv/prosody/etc/prosody:/etc/prosody \
        -v /srv/prosody/var/lib/prosody:/var/lib/prosody \
        -v /srv/prosody/var/log/prosody:/var/log/prosody \
        prosody:0.11
