docker-postal
This project runs daily docker builds for postalhq/postal
Alpine Linux Container (Default)
For this container, use the 'alpine' folder.
Ubuntu Linux Container
For this container, use the 'ubuntu' folder.
Instructions
Change configuration in docker-compose.yml to update passwords for MySQL/RabbitMQ. Note that both passwords in the postal service, mysql service and rabbitmq service have to be changed to the same values.
Initialize Database and write assets
docker-compose run postal initialize
Create User
docker-compose run postal make-user
Running Container
After configuration is done, run the following to bring the container up.
docker-compose up -d
Using the postal tool.
To use the postal tool, simply run
docker-compose run postal <parameter>
For example, the following command runs postal initialize inside the container.
docker-compose run postal initialize
Migrations
See https://github.com/atech/postal/wiki/Upgrading. Note that building a new container (or pulling a new version from Docker Hub) will update the files in postal, so all you have to run is postal upgrade after building or retrieving the new container. Updating postal using its auto-update feature is highly not reccomended and likely does not work properly.
Ports
Port mappings may change (as they have in the past). If SMTP/HTTP(s) is not working, verify that the mapped ports are correct.
Anti-Spam / Antivirus
The initial design for the container was to be simple, minimal, and customizable, so Spamassassin and ClamAV are not included by default. Feel free to fork and add to the Dockerfile (though you must set docker-compose.yml to build from Dockerfile and not pull an image), or add them by linking additional containers.
