Docker Compose

Use the default docker-compose.yml with Docker Swarm for a containerized Bindizr deployment.

$ docker stack deploy -c docker-compose.yml bindizr

The stack runs Bindizr, PostgreSQL, and BIND9 on an overlay network, using Docker configs for BIND9 configuration.

The compose files set Bindizr options through environment variables rather than a config file — see Configuration for the mapping.

Using a different database

The stack is PostgreSQL-only: BINDIZR_DATABASE_TYPE and BINDIZR_DATABASE_URL are pinned to the bundled postgres service. Edit them in the compose file to switch, and drop postgres and its volume once unused.

  • MySQL — BINDIZR_DATABASE_TYPE=mysql, with BINDIZR_DATABASE_URL pointing at your server.
  • SQLite — BINDIZR_DATABASE_TYPE=sqlite, with BINDIZR_SQLITE_FILE_PATH for the path; BINDIZR_DATABASE_URL is silently ignored. The image already defaults to /var/lib/bindizr/bindizr.db inside the bindizr-data volume.
