[5 Mins Docker] Deploy Free Drupal CMS System

congcong • • 好物分享

Drupal is a powerful CMS that is suitable for a variety of different website projects, from small personal blogs to large enterprise-level portals. Its learning curve may be relatively steep, but once you are familiar with how it works, users will be able to take full advantage of its functionality and flexibility to accomplish tasks with less effort. In this blog post I will introduce a way to use Docker to quickly deploy Drupal and also some other ways to deploy it in the Internet for free.

 

What is Dupal

Drupal is a free and open-source web content management system written in PHP and distributed under the GNU General Public License.


Drupal provides an open-source back-end framework for at least 14% of the top 10,000 websites worldwide[8] and 1.2% of the top 10 million websites[9]—ranging from personal blogs to corporate, political, and government sites.[10] Drupal can also be used for knowledge management and for business collaboration.[11]


Please check Wikipedia for more information.

Docker Deployment - 

In this way, we are going to install Drupal into your own VPS docker environment.

1 make sure you have docker service pre-installed on your VPS

The following example is using https://labs.play-with-docker.com/ to show all the commands you will needed.

2 install MySQL DB

Before deploying Drupal with Docker, you need to install a database. You can choose MySQL as the database. If you have already installed MySQL locally, you can skip this step. The following command uses Docker to start a MySQL database.

docker run --network host -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=Password1234! / -v /etc/mysql/data:/var/lib/mysql / -v /etc/mysql/conf.d:/etc/mysql/conf.d / --name mysql / -d mysql:latest

3 install Drupal docker

After the database is deployed and started, deploy Drupal and execute the following command to run the container directly. In order to facilitate database connection, specify the host network:

docker run --network host --name my-drupal -d drupal:latest

4 Using browser to access your Drupal site

After waiting for Docker to start, type docker ps to see the running Drupal container and the MySQL container :

After the installation is running, access port 80 in the browser and you will see the Drupal installation interface. Drupal has been successfully deployed, installed and started. Next, we will continue to install the ngrok tool, complete remote access, and then configure Drupal.

5 Configure your Drupal site
Then select Standard Installation

Next, in the database settings, select MySQL database as the database type, then enter the database name (can be customized), then fill in the database username, default: root, then fill in the database password, then open the advanced options, fill in the Linux device LAN IP address for the host parameter (indicates connection to the local database). After filling in, click the button at the bottom保存并继续

Then wait for the installation to complete

After the installation is complete, we can successfully see the Drupal interface and use ngrok's public domain name. You don't need to buy a cloud server yourself to publish it to the public network for access. For subsequent Drupal gameplay, you can refer to the official documentation for learning!

Self Hosted Docker Installation Pre-requirements

Free resources you might need to complete this docker project:

Pre-installed services:

  • Docker, 
    • apt update
    • apt install docker.io
    • apt install docker-compose
    • apt upgrade docker.io
    • mkdir /root/data/docker_data/<docker_name>
  • Docker-Compose (Using Ubuntu OS for the commands)
    • Docker-compose down
    • Optional command : use following command to backup your Docker data. You might need to change your folder name based on your docker configuraiton
      • cp -r /root/data/docker_data/<docker_name> /root/data/docker_data_backup/<docker_name>
    • docker-compose pull
    • docker-compose up -d
    • docker image prune
  • Portainer (Optional)
    • docker volume create portainer_data
    • docker run -d -p 9000:9000 --name portainer --restart always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest
  • Install some applications: apt install wget curl sudo vim git (Optional)
  • aapanel with Nginx (Optional)
  • Nginx Proxy Manager (Optional)
  • Install screen (Optional)
    • Install screen (Depends on the Linux Distribution if it came pre installed or not) : yum install screen
    • Initiate a Screen : screen or  screen -S <screen name> <command to execute>
    • Detach from the screen : "CTRL+A,D" not "CTRL+A+D"
    • List all the screen currently working : screen -ls
    • Reattach to a screen : screen  -r  <session number> or screen -r <screen name>
    • Kill specific screen: screen -X -S <screen name> quit
    • Kill all screens : pkill screen

Monitoring Usage, especially for disk usage

  • Docker stats
  • ncdu
    • apt install ncdu

Remove Docker and Related folders

  • docker stop <Docker Name> # stop the docker but not remove anything. 
  • docker rm -f <Docker Name>  # remove speficic container, but will not delete mapped volumes
  • rm -rf /root/data/docker_data/<Docker Mapped Volumns>  # remove all mapped volumes

Restrick Journal Log File Size:

  • journalctl --vacuum-size=100M
  • Limit it to 25M:

nano /etc/systemd/journald.conf
SystemMaxUse=25M
systemctl restart systemd-journald.service

or 
sudo bash -c 'echo "SystemMaxUse=100M" >> /etc/systemd/journald.conf' sudo systemctl restart systemd-journald

Enable IPv6 and Limit Log File Size (Ubuntu)

Special command to cleans all logs and you don't need to stop the containers.
  • sudo sh -c 'truncate -s 0 /var/lib/docker/containers/*/*-json.log'
Add customized self defined IPv6 address segment to enable container's IPv6 fucntion. And limit log file's size and numbers in case log file to fill all hard drive's space. 

cat > /etc/docker/daemon.json << EOF { "log-driver": "json-file", "log-opts": { "max-size": "20m", "max-file": "3" }, "ipv6": true, "fixed-cidr-v6": "fd00:dead:beef:c0::/80", "eixperimental":true, "ip6tables":true } EOF

If there is any error, or IPv6 part might not work in the platform you might want to change it to list:


cat <<EOF > /etc/docker/daemon.json { "live-restore": true, "storage-driver": "overlay2", "log-opts": { "max-size": "10m" } } EOF
Restart Docker service:

systemctl restart docker

Limit number of log files:

cat /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog 
/var/log/syslog /var/log/mail.info /var/log/mail.warn /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.log /var/log/daemon.log /var/log/kern.log /var/log/auth.log /var/log/user.log /var/log/lpr.log /var/log/cron.log /var/log/debug /var/log/messages { rotate 4 weekly missingok notifempty compress delaycompress sharedscripts postrotate /usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate endscript }

You can change 4 to some other value, such as 1, so that only one file is stored.
