Alfresco Enterprise Docker Installer

IMPORTANT This project is not supported by Alfresco in any way. Despite deployments using Docker Compose are considered a valid approach for ACS deployment (Community and Enterprise), this alfresco-enterprise-docker tool is not the official Alfresco recommendation. Please, check https://github.com/Alfresco/acs-deployment/tree/master/docker-compose in order to understand official recommendations from Alfresco.

This project builds a Docker Compose template for Alfresco Enterprise according to services selection that can be used as reference to design ACS deployments.

This project does not include:

• RAM limits for every service according to global memory available for Docker
• Customized configuration for Docker Images
• Addons deployment

Docker Images from quay.io are used, since this product is only available for Alfresco Enterprise customers. If you are Enterprise Customer or Partner but you are still experimenting problems to download Docker Images, contact Alfresco Hyland Support in order to get required credentials and permissions.

This program has following dependencies:

• Node.js
• Yeoman

You can download and install Node.js from official web page:

https://nodejs.org/en/download/

Or you can use any of the package managers provided by the product:

https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/

Once Node.js is installed, you can install Yeoman as a module:

$ npm install -g yo

And finally, you can install this generator:

$ npm install --global generator-alfresco-enterprise-docker

Deployment is provided for Docker Compose, so following dependencies must be satisfied by the server used to run the generated configuration:

• Docker
• Docker Compose

You can install Docker Desktop for Windows or Mac and Docker Server for Linux.

https://docs.docker.com/install/

You need also to add Docker Compose program to your installation.

https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

Create a folder where Docker Compose template files are going to be produced and run the generator.

If you downloaded this project, don't reuse source code folder. Create an empty folder to generate Docker Compose template anywhere.

$ mkdir docker-compose
$ cd docker-compose

$ yo alfresco-enterprise-docker
