This is a simple Vagrantfile which can be used to spin few nodes with Docker 1.12+ installed. You can play with Docker Swarm on it. Boxes are Ubuntu Trusty amd64.
Note: This fork updates the original in providing two additional files, Vagrantefile.XENIAL and provision.sh.XENIAL. Replace the originals with these files if you wish to run a newer version of Docker in the Xenial version of Ubuntu. There is an issue with Docker Swarm when using the original files. See this:
So far as I have seen, using the Xenial versions of the files to create and provision the Vagrant nodes fixes this problem.
Docker Swarm is a Docker clustering solution, it turns multiple physical (or virtual) hosts into a one cluster, which practically behaves as a single Docker host. Swarm additionally gives you tools and mechiasms to easily scale your containers and create managed services with automatic load balancing to the exposed ports.
Swarm uses Raft Consensus Algortihm to manage the cluster state. Swarm can tolerate (N-1)/2 failures and needs (N/2)+1 nodes to agree on values.
By default vagrant up spins up 3 machines: manager, worker1, worker2. You can adjust how many
workers you want in the Vagrantfile, by setting the numworkers variable. Manager, by default, has address "192.168.10.2", workers have consecutive ips.
numworkers = 2If your provisioner is Virtualbox, you can modify the vm allocations for memory and cpu by changing these variables:
vmmemory = 512numcpu = 1/etc/hosts on every machine is populated with an IP address and a name of every other machine, so that names are resolved within the cluster. This mechanism is not idempotent, reprovisioning will append the hosts again.
By default, vagrant will create pure machines with docker installed. You can run
AUTO_START_SWARM=true vagrant up to provision swarm automatically. You will get an already running Docker swarm cluster.
After starting swarm, you can use my testing Docker image to play with. It is called darek/goweb and is a super simple Web app, displaying the hostname, and a version. There are three tags: 1.0, 2.0 and latest. They can be used to play with swarm rolling update feature. The container exposes port 8080.
Go to the master node and start docker swarm:
(host)# vagrant ssh manager
(manager)# docker swarm init --advertise-addr 192.168.10.2
docker swarm join \
--token SWMTKN-1-59h28hcbb8gzs2xs24oyh7hjvc7fp8skjzvnpw9cksmp96m4y2-35er9ai3u1f1ae5esb7x8l1hx \
192.168.10.2:2377Now join the swarm on the nodes with the command from the manager, do it on both nodes. You can verify that nodes are in the cluster by doing docker nodes ls on the manager.
vagrant@manager:~$ docker node ls

1iab1w9m5znyzmh7hpzyn7rrw worker2 Ready Active
4mmca5rxrxxhb0tb7s5du5hpe worker1 Ready ActiveNow create a web service, with 1 replica, on any of the nodes:
docker service create --name web --replicas 1 --publish 8080:8080 darek/goweb:1.0You can see the status od the service with docker service ps web.
vagrant@manager:~$ docker service ps web
ID NAME IMAGE NODE DESIRED STATE CURRENT STATE ERROR
7m0s3ikyjyvps4xgpk655uv9k web.1 darek/goweb:1.0 manager Running Running 16 seconds ago
You can scale up the service if you want:
docker service scale web=4Now, let us verify it works, docker swarm will load balance requests to all of the service instances:
vagrant ssh worker1
sudo apt-get install httpie -y
http localhost:8080Do the http command serveral times, you will notice different hostnames every time. This is because swarm handler load balancing for us.
Let's do a rolling update of the service, first let's scale it to 10 - you already know how. First we will update the defintion of the service to say that updates will have a delay of 5s.
docker service update --update-delay 5s webLet's us update the service now:
docker service update --image darek/goweb:2.0 webNow docker will update service one by one with a 5s delay between the updates. If you want to introduce parallelism to updates you can specify if with the --update-parallelism flag.
docker service update --update-parallelism 2 webLet's see how it goes:
vagrant@manager:~$ docker service ps web
