Run Percona Server for MongoDB in a Docker container¶
Docker images of Percona Server for MongoDB are hosted publicly on Docker Hub.
For more information about using Docker, see the Docker Docs.
Make sure that you are using the latest version of Docker. The ones provided via apt
and yum
may be outdated and cause errors.
By default, Docker will pull the image from Docker Hub if it is not available locally.
To run the latest Percona Server for MongoDB 6.0 in a Docker container, run the following command as the root user or via sudo
:
$ docker run -d --name psmdb --restart always \
percona/percona-server-mongodb:6.0
The command does the following:
-
The
docker run
command instructs thedocker
daemon to run a container from an image. -
The
-d
option starts the container in detached mode (that is, in the background). -
The
--name
option assigns a custom name for the container that you can use to reference the container within a Docker network. In this case:psmdb
. -
The
--restart
option defines the container’s restart policy. Setting it toalways
ensures that the Docker daemon will start the container on startup and restart it if the container exits. -
percona/percona-server-mongodb:6.0
/percona/percona-server-mongodb:<TAG>-arm64
is the name and version tag of the image to derive the container from.
Connecting from another Docker container¶
The Percona Server for MongoDB container exposes standard MongoDB port (27017), which can be used for connection from an application running in another container.
To link the application container to the psmdb
container,
use the --link psmdb
option when running the container with your app.
Connecting with the mongosh
shell¶
To start another container with the mongosh
shell
that connects to your Percona Server for MongoDB container,
run the following command:
$ docker run -it --link psmdb --rm percona/percona-server-mongodb:6.0 mongosh mongodb://MONGODB_SERVER:PORT/DB_NAME
Set MONGODB_SERVER
, PORT
, and DB_NAME
with the IP address of the psmdb
container, the port of your MongoDB Server (default value is 27017), and the name of the database you want to connect to.
You can get the IP address by running this command:
$ docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' psmdb
