Usage with official CouchDB images

[almereyda]

The https://github.com/frodenas/docker-couchdb repository seems pretty unmaintained, while there is active work being done to release an official couchdb Docker image.

How would one migrate this dokku plugin to that one?

[almereyda]

What I found so far is, when ssh'ing into the Dokku host, the COUCHDB_IMAGE and COUCHDB_IMAGE_VERSION environment variables are being respected.
But this doesn't work with an alias for dokku on a remote client like alias dokku='ssh -t dokku@apps.dokku.me'.

Thus I managed to create a CouchDB image from my almereyda/geocouch, but there doesn't seem to be integration of credentials management. It is successfully connected to the desired applications container and running as admin party.

Due to that error, the expected database is also not being created, as the plugin assumes to use nonworking credentials.

[almereyda]

The logic from

• https://github.com/frodenas/docker-couchdb/blob/master/scripts/first_run.sh#L10-L18
• https://github.com/frodenas/docker-couchdb/blob/master/scripts/first_run.sh#L23-L29

should therefore be migrated into a fork of

• https://github.com/dokku/dokku-couchdb/blob/master/commands#L44

adapted to

• the host mounted data volume respecting the location of the filesystem database storage within the soon-to-be-official couchdb image
• followed by frodenas' curl commands

and https://github.com/dokku/dokku-couchdb/blob/master/config#L2-L3

• pointing to couchdb:1.6.1.

@almereyda Do you mind creating a PR with this functionality?

[almereyda]

No, I am actually keen on it. But for that we need to adapt @klaemo's
images to accept environment variables containing admin credentials and
further configuration options.

Feel free to take a crack at it.

[klaemo]

I've a PR open to allow config via env vars. Is that what your looking for? It it's okay, I'll merge it and kick off an image update.

[almereyda]

As the PR mentioned above has been merged, it seems more easy to update this repository here. I may have time to check this out next week.

[klaemo]

yep, the official image now supports env vars https://hub.docker.com/_/couchdb/

Closing as no one is interested in working on this. Feel free to submit a PR if you are :)
