NodeBB 1.18.0 docker update

[MaxWaldorf]

Hi team,

Is it expected to have no docker image yet for 1.18.0?

I am running nodebb on kubernetes so I can't upgrade without a new image.

BTW, do you need help to make cross platform images (support for arm would be appreciated)

Cheers

@maxwaldorf Hi Max, it seems our integration that automatically created docker images is now a paid-only option, so that explains why it stopped.

I have manually pushed an image up for v1.18.2, although I cannot vouch for its reliability since it is my first time doing so

An alternative Docker image would be https://hub.docker.com/r/nilsramsperger/nodebb/

This one is kept fairly up to date by a third-party.

@julian the image doesn't work...

It seems that there is a right issue on plugins folder...

I am getting the error:

A couple more investigation shows:

So I guess this is a folder rights issues...

@maxwaldorf any luck with the nilsramsperger build?

We're working on getting the docker pushes up and running again but it will be awhile

[MaxWaldorf]

@julian he is using an embedded redis cache...
I am using mongo right now... Plus, I would need to remap all my volumes without really knowing what would be the consequences...

So that would be a no go...

But don't worry I can wait a couple days for you guys to sort this out.

Let me know if I can help as well...

Cheers

@maxwaldorf You can try https://hub.docker.com/r/nibrev/nodebb/tags. I just used the latest image to update to 1.18.0

Here is my nodebb docker setup.

@fais3000 said in NodeBB 1.18.0 docker update:

This is the image I use, although I'm not using Mongo so unsure if it works for you.

[julian]

@fais3000 glad to hear we have so many community images on docker @Antosik is helping us resolve our issues with the docker builds

[MaxWaldorf]

@enot I usually stick to the official image as I work on Kubernetes and changing my setup isn't really something I like doing (I have an entire backup infrastructure setup around it)

Plus, if the maintainer doesn't support it anymore, it means I have to revert to another solution.

As said, I am cool with waiting the official image to be updated

[julian]

@maxwaldorf we've a new image pushed now, I think... Can you try with latest?

[MaxWaldorf]

@julian Bingo!

This image works!
I guess you can delete the v1.18.2 image and regenerate it with this build.

Good work!

Cheers

[julian]

@maxwaldorf I just deleted the 1.18.2 tag from Docker Hub -- I most likely won't regenerate the image. v1.18.3 will be the next release with a Docker image.
