This Docker images provides the [opensearchproject/opensearch](https://hub.docker.com/r/opensearchproject/opensearch) image as base
with the mDNS/ZeroConf stack on top. So you can enjoy [OpenSearch](https://opensearch.org/) while
it is accessible by default as *opensearch.local*. (Port 9200, 9600, 80 via proxy)

## Requirements
* Host enabled Avahi daemon
* Host enabled mDNS NSS lookup
## Getting starting
You just need to run it like that, to get a working opensearch:
```bash
$ docker run --rm hausgold/opensearch
```
The port 9200 is proxied by haproxy to port 80 to make *opensearch.local*
directly accessible. The port 9200 and 9600 are untouched.
Checkout the [working with plugins
documentation](https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/opensearch/install/docker/#working-with-plugins)
if you have to deal with custom plugins.
In order to enable the [Elasticsearch version
compatibility](https://opensearch.org/blog/technical-posts/2021/10/moving-from-opensource-elasticsearch-to-opensearch/)
add this environment variable:
```
compatibility.override_main_response_version='true'
```
## docker-compose usage example
```yaml
services:
opensearch:
image: hausgold/opensearch
environment:
# Mind the .local suffix
MDNS_HOSTNAME: opensearch.test.local
OPENSEARCH_JAVA_OPTS: -Xms128m -Xmx128m
discovery.type: single-node
compatibility.override_main_response_version: 'false'
ulimits:
# Due to systemd/pam RLIMIT_NOFILE settings (max int inside the
# container), the Java process seams to allocate huge limits which result
# in a +unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memory+ error.
# Lowering this value fixes the issue for now.

```
## Host configs
Install the nss-mdns package, enable and start the avahi-daemon.service. Then,
edit the file /etc/nsswitch.conf and change the hosts line like this:
```bash
hosts: ... mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns ...
```
## Configure a different mDNS hostname
The magic environment variable is *MDNS_HOSTNAME*. Just pass it like that to
your docker run command:
```bash
$ docker run --rm -e MDNS_HOSTNAME=something.else.local hausgold/opensearch
```
This will result in *something.else.local*.
You can also configure multiple aliases (CNAME's) for your container by
passing the *MDNS_CNAMES* environment variable. It will register all the comma
separated domains as aliases for the container, next to the regular mDNS
hostname.
```bash
$ docker run --rm \
-e MDNS_HOSTNAME=something.else.local \
-e MDNS_CNAMES=nothing.else.local,special.local \
hausgold/opensearch
```
This will result in *something.else.local*, *nothing.else.local* and
*special.local*.
## Other top level domains
By default *.local* is the default mDNS top level domain. This images does not
force you to use it. But if you do not use the default *.local* top level
domain, you need to [configure your host avahi][custom_mdns] to accept it.
