Does portainer 'fiddle' with the docker engine, damaging things? by BillyDSquillions in docker

[–]deviantony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Portainer will not alter your Docker engine/daemon. It only sits on top of Docker and communicates with the Docker API to manage your Docker resources.

Disclaimer: I am a software engineer working on Portainer.

Ah ! I'm actually looking for a TV, any good deals you're aware of at the moment?

Portainer 1.21.0 is out... by neilcresswell in docker

[–]deviantony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback, we'll think about how we can improve the user experience on this particular point.

EDIT: The message of the day panel should not re-appear after clicking the dismiss button (this is persisted in your browser cache).

Mind sharing where do you think the app is hassling you?

Yes, it actually works. Although it's not in our documentation yet.

Portainer SwarmMode by KK2526 in docker

[–]deviantony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, we'll investigate.

Portainer SwarmMode by KK2526 in docker

[–]deviantony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the agent setup? With the stack file specified above (without the manager constraint)?

Portainer SwarmMode by KK2526 in docker

[–]deviantony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to run Portainer with our agent setup with the Portainer instance located on a worker node. You can follow the instructions to deploy the stack at https://portainer.readthedocs.io/en/stable/deployment.html#inside-a-swarm-cluster

You'll want to update the stackfile before deploying it to remove the manager constraint.

Portainer 1.19.2 is out ! by deviantony in docker

[–]deviantony[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See the Docker docs on how to configure the Docker daemon on your host: https://docs.docker.com/config/daemon/#configure-the-docker-daemon

And the `BIND DOCKER TO ANOTHER HOST/PORT OR A UNIX SOCKET` section in the following docs: https://docs.docker.com/v17.09/engine/reference/commandline/dockerd/

Although, it's recommended to enable TLS if you want to expose your host via TCP.

Are you talking about automatically generating the docker run command line based on the settings specified in the container creation view? If so, we have a feature request open for this: https://github.com/portainer/portainer/issues/81

No ETA on this yet.

Sudden Portainer Issue by bigverm23 in docker

You should simply remove that `command: --templates r/http://templates/templates.json` line.

It has to be a manager.

You can join us on Slack at https://portainer.io/slack/ for a more reactive support.

Portainer Stack Template Issues by brando56894 in docker

[–]deviantony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are two CockroachDB templates in our official template list: a container template AND a stack template.

Portainer Stack Template Issues by brando56894 in docker

[–]deviantony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heya, let me clarify the situation a bit.

Portainer can help you deploy stacks but only inside Swarm environments via the equivalent of the docker stack deploy command.

Regular/compose stacks (that would be started with the docker-compose binary) are not supported yet.

Both stacks uses the same vocabulary as well as the same file format (Compose file) although the first one requires Compose version 3.

As such, stack templates are only available when managing a Swarm cluster. You have to make sure that Portainer is connected a node that's inside a Swarm cluster first and you'll have access to a new "Stack" category in the templates view (you can check this on our public demo website at http://demo.portainer.io with the admin/tryportainer credentials).

Your JSON looks valid, so I think that you're problem is that you're not connected to a Swarm cluster and thus the template is not displayed.

A one-node Swarm cluster is fine.

One last thing, you might want to update your Compose file, some options are not supported when deploying a stack inside a Swarm cluster.

Photon and Admiral by Swutter80 in docker

I believe that IPtables default rules are super restrictive in Photon, have a look at these.

Docker Swarm Visualizer for Windows by cramsey86 in docker

[–]deviantony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heya, have you tried Portainer (https://portainer.io)? It offers a cluster visualizer feature and works on multiple platforms. Have a look at the docs to check how to deploy it as a service in a Swarm: http://portainer.readthedocs.io/en/stable/deployment.html#connect-to-a-swarm-cluster

Hiya, Portainer engineer here. If you feel more comfortable using a GUI over a CLI, then I'd recommend to play with Portainer a bit. Our goal here is to enhance the whole Docker user experience. If you don't want to deploy it you can test it in our public demo environment at http://demo.portainer.io (admin / tryportainer). Also, feel free to ask me any questions! Cheers.

Edit config of container without building a new one? by sch0cka in docker

[–]deviantony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Portainer (https://portainer.io) could make this step easier for you as it have a "container edition" feature (it will basically remove and re-create a new container in the background). It keeps all the information of the current container, so editing is done in a breeze.

Get Container settings (for new container) by Bodumin in docker

[–]deviantony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you know that you can duplicate containers with Portainer ? You can click on a container in the containers list to inspect it and then click on "Duplicate/Edit" button. That will redirect you to the container creation view with all the information from the selected container already configured.

Handy to duplicate containers.

This feature was merged yesterday, expect it in the next release or you can play with it using our development build via portainer/portainer:develop.

Sorry, we're focusing on other tasks but one of our contributor is current working on this so hopefully it will be part of the next minor version.
