How to build (custom) apps using the docker-registry

kallados

Thanks for Tips. I check i now. Credential has been set correctly (i think). Because login to Docker working fine. I installed also Docker Registry UI. Maybe is really something wrong with name

@msbt Im not sure, what you mean. Btw. where you mean. I changed some steps now, bit testing... and i have on the Docker "own version" of Kutt Shortener... Bit this image have 727 MB.. Pretty big. But this is maybe normal. I see noe the App in Cloudron Dashboard, but is not running. I get this again from scratch.

@kallados Ah, I think that is fixed by Services -> Redis -> Restart ? And then come back to this view and Retry resize.

For some reason... he want to push just in docker.io and not docker.kallados.com

But my docker.json on Builder App is fine...

Thanks for your support guys

msbt

@kallados did you also restart the build-app after setting the docker stuff?

kallados

This post is deleted!

robi

does the cloudron npm need an update? what version is it?

kallados

@robi

where i run cloudron CLI and 7.5.4 on Cloudron Builder Server. Seems to be same problem here maybe.

Enter repository (e.g registry/username/it.kutt.cloudronapp): kallados/shortener

get answer

But docker.io has been nowhere stored from me. docker.json on Builder is correct.

*** I have tried to enter a port. Interesting why IPv6 pops out... but at least I get response from the server.

Failed to build app. See log output above.

So i got it successfully and pushed into Registry on Cloudron. I had just to use Docker and not Cloudron Builder.

robi

docker.io is the default, unless overidden with a private registry.

kallados

@robi My privat registry running on docker.kallados.com, unfortunately just with docker. I cab't use Builder for some Reason.

girish

@kallados I think the issue you hit is that 6.1.2 has a bug where pushing from a custom docker client fails (in this case, the docker client is the build service). https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/4383/cannot-install-apps-from-docker-registry-because-authentication-fails/8 has the fix.

BrutalBirdie

@msbt Nice guide!

There is something that I miss tho.
I like to run my cloudron apps local first so I can see if everything is working as intended.
This only works to a certain level for example this can't work if a database addon is used.
But everything before that step can be tested locally.

A full local test suite would be awesome, so I the developer don't have to push every test and deploy it.

For example this is how I do some local testing before I push my image.

Needed software is jq for json parsing, docker, bash, sed

Script explained with words:

Get the ID and version Tag from the CloudronManifest.json and use them for docker build.
Create local folders for /tmp /app/data and /run so I can emulate cloudrons readonly behavior.
Cleanup local folders so every test is fresh and clean
Build the docker image with Data from CloudronManifest.json
Run the freshly build Image in readonly mode with local test folders and an interactive bash session so I can debug / test some stuff.

#!/bin/bash

set -x

ID=$(jq -r ".id" CloudronManifest.json)
VERSION=$(jq -r ".version" CloudronManifest.json')

echo "=> Create Test Data dir"
mkdir -p ./cloudron_test/data ./cloudron_test/tmp ./cloudron_test/run

echo "=> Cleanup Test Data"
rm -rf ./cloudron_test/data/* ./cloudron_test/tmp/* ./cloudron_test/run/*

echo "=> Build test image"
docker build -t dr.cloudron.dev/$ID:$VERSION .

echo "=> Run $VERSION tag of build image of $ID"
docker run -ti --read-only \
    --volume $(pwd)/cloudron_test/data:/app/data:rw \
    --volume $(pwd)/cloudron_test/tmp:/tmp:rw \
    --volume $(pwd)/cloudron_test/run:/run:rw \
    dr.cloudron.dev/$ID:$VERSION \
    bash

infogulch

@brutalbirdie btw, you can get raw strings from jq directly without having to strip quotes with the -r option:

ID=$(jq -r ".id" CloudronManifest.json)
VERSION=$(jq -r ".version" CloudronManifest.json)

This does one better than just stripping quotes since it will also decode other escaped characters (not that that applies in this case).
