Meteor is an ultra-simple environment for building modern web applications.
With Meteor you write apps:
- in pure JavaScript
- that send data over the wire, rather than HTML
- using your choice of popular open-source libraries
Documentation is available at http://docs.meteor.com/.
Meteor and a small shim that addresses a compatibility issue with boot2docker.
A fork of demeteorizer with a patch for Dockerfile support remains included in this release. Support has been deprecated and demeteorizer will be dropped from future releases. The patch has not been merged upstream and demeteorizer is not required with the currently documented workflow.
- To install a packaged, specific version of Meteor.
- To Dockerize a Meteor app for your Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery/Production environments.
- To have a repeatable and easily maintained development environment.
- To do Meteor development on Windows (using boot2docker).
The latest tag builds whatever Meteor publishes at https://install.meteor.com/, as long
as the install script does not change. Images tagged for a specific Meteor version checksum both the installer and the
tarball the installer downloads.
docker run -it --rm -v "$(pwd)":/app danieldent/meteor meteor create
docker run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 -v "$(pwd)":/app danieldent/meteor
Boot2Docker uses VirtualBox's Shared Folders for Docker's data volumes, which are not compatible with either MongoDB or Meteor's development server.
A small shim is included which re-maps the .meteor/local folder back into the virtual machine, and
enables Meteor to work under boot2docker. Add vboxsf-shim before any meteor command that requires its use.
Using the shim requires the container be allowed the SYS_ADMIN capability.
docker run --cap-add SYS_ADMIN -it --rm -p 3000:3000 -v "$(pwd)":/app danieldent/meteor vboxsf-shim meteor
You may wish to use a separate docker container for your database. This will allow data to persist across restarts of
your Meteor container. Unless you use a persistent Docker container, using the shim means that the contents of your
.meteor/local folder do not persist, which is where Meteor stores its build cache as well as the MongoDB database it
provides in development mode.
docker run --name mydb -d mongo
docker run --cap-add SYS_ADMIN -it --rm -p 3000:3000 --link mydb:db -e "MONGO_URL=mongodb://db" -v "$(pwd)":/app danieldent/meteor vboxsf-shim meteor
Create a .dockerignore file in your Meteor source directory to exclude Meteor's development build cache.
.meteor/local
Create a Dockerfile for your Meteor app and place it in your Meteor source directory. Use one of the onbuild tags.
FROM danieldent/meteor:onbuild
Build the Docker image for your app (assumes you are currently in the Meteor source directory):
docker build -t exampleapp .
Run your app in its container, using another Docker container for the MongoDB database:
docker run --name exampleAppDb -d mongo
docker run -it --rm -p 3000:3000 --link exampleAppDb:db -e "MONGO_URL=mongodb://db" -e "ROOT_URL=http://localhost:3000" exampleapp
By default, your Meteor app will run as nobody within the Docker container. This ensures the app does not have
write access to its own files, which could help reduce the impact of certain security issues. It also makes it harder to
accidentally write code which makes changes to the filesystem. Port 3000 will be exposed by default. Here's a
Dockerfile which changes the defaults. It usually shouldn't be necessary to change the port on which your Meteor app
listens - Docker's port mapping features allows the port used inside the container to be different than the port
which is exposed outside the container.
FROM danieldent/meteor:onbuild
EXPOSE 4000
ENV PORT 4000
USER root
While it's possible to set additional variables as part of the build (such as MONGO_URL, ROOT_URL, or
METEOR_SETTINGS), it may be a better choice to pass configuration that is likely to vary between deployments of the
application as runtime environment variables.
