crisward / dokku-require Goto Github PK

I included storage to mount in my app.json. I tried to access that storage after using dokku enter $APP and appearing as herokuishuser, but I received a "Permission denied" error.

The permissions appear to be -rw------- 1 32767 32767. The docs (https://github.com/dokku/dokku/blob/master/docs/advanced-usage/persistent-storage.md) recommend using chown chown -R 32767:32767 /var/lib/dokku/data/storage/ruby-rails-sample. Can dokku-require check, and correct if necessary, the permissions of the storage it mounts.

(dokku/dokku#2215 seems relevant to this issue.)

If you have a db (or other plugin) named appropriately with the app name, dokku-require declares it "already setup". But the db may not be linked to your app. So after checking for existence, it should check for linkage, and link if necessary. (Thanks for a great plugin, by the way!)

It would be good to enable some options to only apply on first push / or perhaps if they don't already exist. (as per discussion here dokku/dokku#2269)

Env vars are mentioned as an issue, but dokku-require doesn't specifically support env vars. However having a 'firstpush' option could be useful in general.

Dokku may add something to core for this, but here could be a good place to experiment with the feature.

eg.

"dokku":{
    "plugins":[
      {
        "name":"mariadb",
        "firstpush":true,
        "commands":["mariadb:create mydb","mariadb:link mydb $APP"]
      }
    ]
  }

Is there a feature to describe cron jobs in app.json with this plugin?

I tried using this with a Dockerfile deployment, and nothing happened.
Is this supposed to work, or is it unsupported?

Here's what I did:

• Install docker and dokku
• Install the require plugin
• push an app with the following app.json in the root:

{
  "dokku":{
    "plugins":[
      "postgres"
    ]
  }
}

After a successful app deployment, the postgres plugin was not installed and no database was created.

Hey, I'm very happy to see this plugin, I can finally get rid of most of my deployment scripts and really automate deployment of my DBs and volumes \o/

Quick question though: why using docker volumes instead of dokku core storage? I'm genuinely interested, as I've started to switch to dokku storage for all my apps.

very useful plugin I think it is a must have as a core plugin!
