Strapi containerized with setup

A quick test on dockerized Strapi app, with the following additional setup:

• Add traefix for reverse-proxying
• Use SQLite for the default database as in Quick Start)
• Execute shell scripts for scaffolding:
  • Use a custom public/index.html
  • Install graphql plugin.
  • Generate API for content types post and comment.

The following files are adopted from the official "strapi/strapi-docker" repo with changes if relevant:

• docker-compose.yml, mongo.docker-compose.yml
• Dockerfile, mongo.Dockerfile
• healthcheck.js
• strapi.sh, mongo/strapi.sh

Quickstart

1. Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/bobaekang/strapi-docker-with-setup.git
cd strapi-docker-with-setup

2. Bring up the docker-compose (Add -d flag is for detached mode) This will build the test/strapi-docker image as well.

docker-compose up

If you want to use Mongo for database as in the official Strapi containerized repo, use the following command instead:

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f mongo.docker-compose.yml up

This will combine both Docker Compose files into a single configuration and build the test/strapi-docker-mongo image. Refer to this page of the Docker documentation for more on combining Compose files.

3. Open localhost:1337 in a browser and see if the app is running. (It might take some time.)

4. Go to localhost:1337/admin and create the root admin account.

5. Run strapi-scaffold.sh in the container.

# add "winpty" before the command for Windows
docker exec -it strapi-docker-with-setup_api_1 ./strapi-scaffold.sh

6. Run docker-compose restart api to restart Starpi and make new content types available.

That's it!:raised_hands: Now you have a Strapi server running in container with some custom setup.

Feel free to fork this repo and edit files/scripts to further customize it.
