This is a Docker skeleton project that can be used to quickly get a
new [cisagov](https://github.com/cisagov) GitHub Docker project
started. This skeleton project contains [licensing
information](LICENSE), as well as [pre-commit hooks](https://pre-commit.com)
and [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions) configurations
appropriate for Docker containers and the major languages that we use.

## Running ##

### Running with Docker ###

To run the `cisagov/example` image via Docker:

```console
docker run cisagov/example:0.0.1
```

### Running with Docker Compose ###

1. Create a `docker-compose.yml` file similar to the one below to use [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/).

```yaml
---
version: "3.7"

services:
example:
image: cisagov/example:0.0.1
volumes:
- type: bind
source:
target: /var/log
environment:
- ECHO_MESSAGE="Hello from docker compose"
ports:
- target: 8080
published: 8080
protocol: tcp
```

1. Start the container and detach:

```console
docker compose up --detach
```

## Using secrets with your container ##

This container also supports passing sensitive values via [Docker
secrets](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets/). Passing sensitive
values like your credentials can be more secure using secrets than using
environment variables. See the
[secrets](#secrets) section below for a table of all supported secret files.

1. To use secrets, create a `quote.txt` file containing the values you want set:

```text
Better lock it in your pocket.
```

1. Then add the secret to your `docker-compose.yml` file:

```yaml
---
version: "3.7"

secrets:
quote_txt:
file: quote.txt

services:
example:
image: cisagov/example:0.0.1
volumes:
- type: bind
source:
target: /var/log
environment:
- ECHO_MESSAGE="Hello from docker compose"
ports:
- target: 8080
published: 8080
protocol: tcp
secrets:
- source: quote_txt
target: quote.txt
```

## Updating your container ##

### Docker Compose ###

1. Pull the new image from Docker Hub:

```console
docker compose pull
```

1. Recreate the running container by following the [previous instructions](#running-with-docker-compose):

```console
docker compose up --detach
```

### Docker ###

1. Stop the running container:

```console
docker stop
```

1. Pull the new image:

```console
docker pull cisagov/example:0.0.1
```

1. Recreate and run the container by following the [previous instructions](#running-with-docker).

## Image tags ##

The images of this container are tagged with [semantic
versions](https://semver.org) of the underlying example project that they
containerize. It is recommended that most users use a version tag (e.g.
`:0.0.1`).

| Image:tag | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
|`cisagov/example:1.2.3`| An exact release version. |
|`cisagov/example:1.2`| The most recent release matching the major and minor version numbers. |
|`cisagov/example:1`| The most recent release matching the major version number. |
|`cisagov/example:edge` | The most recent image built from a merge into the `develop` branch of this repository. |
|`cisagov/example:nightly` | A nightly build of the `develop` branch of this repository. |
|`cisagov/example:latest`| The most recent release image pushed to a container registry. Pulling an image using the `:latest` tag [should be avoided.](https://vsupalov.com/docker-latest-tag/) |

See the [tags tab](https://hub.docker.com/r/cisagov/example/tags) on Docker
Hub for a list of all the supported tags.

## Volumes ##

| Mount point | Purpose |
|-------------|----------------|
| `/var/log` | Log storage |

## Ports ##

The following ports are exposed by this container:

| Port | Purpose |
|------|----------------|
| 8080 | Example only; nothing is actually listening on the port |

The sample [Docker composition](docker-compose.yml) publishes the
exposed port at 8080.

## Environment variables ##

### Required ###

There are no required environment variables.

### Optional ###

| Name | Purpose | Default |
|-------|---------|---------|
| `ECHO_MESSAGE` | Sets the message echoed by this container. | `Hello World from Dockerfile` |

## Secrets ##

| Filename | Purpose |
|--------------|---------|
| `quote.txt` | Replaces the secret stored in the example library's package data. |

## Building from source ##

Build the image locally using this git repository as the [build context](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/build/#git-repositories):

```console
docker build \
--build-arg VERSION=0.0.1 \
--tag cisagov/example:0.0.1 \
https://github.com/cisagov/example.git#develop
```

## Cross-platform builds ##

To create images that are compatible with other platforms, you can use the
[`buildx`](https://docs.docker.com/buildx/working-with-buildx/) feature of
Docker:

1. Copy the project to your machine using the `Code` button above
or the command line:

```console
git clone https://github.com/cisagov/example.git
cd example
```

1. Create the `Dockerfile-x` file with `buildx` platform support:

```console
./buildx-dockerfile.sh
```

1. Build the image using `buildx`:

```console
docker buildx build \
--file Dockerfile-x \
--platform linux/amd64 \
--build-arg VERSION=0.0.1 \
--output type=docker \
--tag cisagov/example:0.0.1 .
```

## New repositories from a skeleton ##

Please see our [Project Setup guide](https://github.com/cisagov/development-guide/tree/develop/project_setup)
for step-by-step instructions on how to start a new repository from
a skeleton. This will save you time and effort when configuring a
new repository!
