Docker Deployment Guide

✅ Step 1: Install Docker​

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y docker.io docker-compose
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl start docker

✅ Step 2: Create docker-compose.yml​

nano docker-compose.yml

Paste the following:

services:
  app:
    image: beyondtechitsolutions/tadreeblms:v6
    ports:
      - "8000:80"
    depends_on:
      db:
        condition: service_healthy
    restart: unless-stopped

  db:
    image: mysql:8.0
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: rootpass
      MYSQL_DATABASE: tadreeblms
      MYSQL_USER: tadreeb
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: secret
    volumes:
      - dbdata:/var/lib/mysql
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "mysqladmin", "ping", "-h", "localhost"]
      interval: 10s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 12
      start_period: 30s

volumes:
  dbdata:

Save:

  • Press CTRL + O → Enter
  • Press CTRL + X

✅ Step 3: Run Containers​

sudo docker-compose up -d

✅ Step 4: Open Port 8000 (AWS EC2)​

Go to AWS EC2 → Security Groups → Inbound Rules

Add rule:

  • Type: Custom TCP
  • Port: 8000
  • Source: 0.0.0.0/0

✅ Step 5: Access Application​

Open in browser:

http://<your-server-ip>:8000

✅ Step 6: Run Installer​

Enter database details:

  • Host: db
  • Port: 3306
  • Database: tadreeblms
  • Username: tadreeb
  • Password: secret

🔍 Troubleshooting​

Check running containers:

docker ps

Check logs:

docker-compose logs -f

Check DB logs:

docker-compose logs -f db

🧠 Notes​

  • No need to clone project on server
  • No need Dockerfile on server
  • Image is pulled from Docker Hub
  • docker-compose is only used to run services

🔥 Final Flow​

Install Docker → Create compose → Run → Open port → Access app → Install
