Containers

Let’s review some options, related to running Muo from the container

Docker Registry

Currently, we do not upload the official Muo image into any Docker registry.

But you can create a local image with the system of your choice.

Local image

If you have a Muo binary locally, you can easily create a container with it.

Let’s assume, you placed the muo binary in the working folder.

Docker

1. Create the following Dockerfile next to the executable

   FROM ubuntu:latest AS runtime
   WORKDIR /app
   COPY muo ./
   RUN chmod u+x ./muo
   EXPOSE 3000/tcp
   ENTRYPOINT ["./muo"]

2. Build the image

   docker image build \
       --tag docker.cesbo.com/muo:latest \
       .

Podman

1. Create the following Containerfile next to the executable

   FROM ubuntu:latest AS runtime
   WORKDIR /app
   COPY muo ./
   RUN chmod u+x ./muo
   EXPOSE 3000/tcp
   ENTRYPOINT ["./muo"]

2. Build the image

   podman image build \
       --tag docker.cesbo.com/muo:latest \
       .

Consejo

You can adjust the ENTRYPOINT so it stores logs into a file and mount the respective folder as a volume.

For example,

ENTRYPOINT ["./muo", ">", "/var/log/muo.log"]
