Get your Xyzzy on: docker pull emcniece/dockeryourxyzzy

This is a containerized build of the Pretend You're Xyzzy Cards Against Humanity clone.

This multi-step Dockerfile contains 3 stages: base, dev, and run. The base image will copy the compiled files over to an output directory, and the dev and run images will run the project.

The PYX project can be used in Docker format for development, outputting the built files, or running in production.

Run & copy the .war and .jar files to ./xyz-output/ (container is removed after it executes):

docker run --rm \
  -v $(PWD)/xyz-output:/output \
  emcniece/dockeryourxyzzy:base

ls -al ./xyz-output

Keep the container up with SQLite and war:exploded jetty:run:

docker run -d \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  --name pyx-dev \
  emcniece/dockeryourxyzzy:dev

# Visit http://localhost:8080 in your browser
# Or, start a bash session within the container:
docker exec -it pyx-dev bash

Settings in build.properties can be modified by passing them in the container CMD:

docker run -d \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  emcniece/dockeryourxyzzy:dev \
  mvn clean package war:war \
    -Dhttps.protocols=TLSv1.2 \
    -Dmaven.buildNumber.doCheck=false \
    -Dmaven.buildNumber.doUpdate=false \
    -Dmaven.hibernate.url=jdbc:postgresql://postgres/pyx

Project build.properties commands can be overridden by altering the default container CMD:

docker run -d \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  emcniece/dockeryourxyzzy:run

An example production stack of PYX with a Postgres container can be found in docker-compose.yml:

# Run PYX/Postgres stack
docker-compose up -d --build

This project can be built and run by any of the 3 following methods: CLI docker build commands, CLI make commands, or Docker-Compose.

The Makefile documents the frequently used build commands:

# Build default (full / runtime) image
make image

# Build base image
make image-base

# Build dev image
make image-dev

# Build runtime image
make image-run

# Run container
make run

# Run in debug mode (no container CMD):
make run-debug

Docker commands can be found in the Makefile:

# Build full/runtime image
docker build -t pyx

# Build dev image
docker build -t pyx --target dev

Force building with the --build flag:

# Run PYX/Postgres stack
docker-compose up -d --build

• Figure out how to run :latest properly with a Postgres db
• Import & run sql files if specified for the Postgres db
• Buildtime config customization via Maven flags
• Runtime config customization via Maven flags
• Fetch GeoIP database in entrypoint.sh

• Haven't actually got this working with an external Postgres db yet
• Versioning and tagging isn't done well here because Pretend You're Xyzzy doesn't seem to tag or version.
