`linked` line not seen when deploying NodeJS app
Opened this issue · 1 comments
I'm deploying a NodeJS app (Ghost) on dokku, and want to use the MariaDB plugin to provide persistent storage for it.
The plugin installs fine, and creates the right docker instance, which I can connect to from the host system.
The problem comes when I deploy my node app. In the docs, I don't see the following snippet when pushing up to dokku:
remote: -----> Deploying foo ...
remote:
remote: -----> App foo linked to mariadb/foo database
remote: DATABASE_URL=...
Because I don't get that link, I think my Node app is struggling to connect across containers, so I get a database timeout when it attempts to reach the MariaDB container.
Do I need to add some metadata to my node app to tell dokku that it's looking for a database container?
You can manually enter your database informations in the configuration file of Ghost
DB user is root
Password is indicated in dokku mariadb:info foo
DB host is 172.17.42.1
DB name is db
DB port is also indicated in dokku mariadb:info foo
