docker-geoserver

Dockerized GeoServer with extensions: Charts, Control Flow, CSS, MongoDB, Monitor, Query Layer, Vector Tiles, Authkey, GWC-S3, JDBC-Metrics, JDBCConfig, JDBCStore, Importer and Importer BDB.

The biggest change is the use of GeoServer 2.15.2, and the JAVA_OPTS.

Features

Built on top of Docker's official tomcat image.
Taken care of JVM Options, to avoid PermGen space issues &c.
Separate GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR location (on /var/local/geoserver).
CORS ready.
Automatic installation of Native JAI and Image IO for better performance.
Configurable extensions.
Automatic installation of Microsoft Core Fonts for better labelling compatibility.
AWS configuration files and scripts in order to deploy easily using Elastic Beanstalk. See github repo.
Extension Authkey installed by default.
Extension Control Flow installed by default.
Extension Monitor installed by default.

Trusted builds

Active versions with automated builds available on docker registry:

maintenance, 2.15.2 (2.15.2/java11-hotspot.dockerfile)

Other experimental (not automated build):

oracle. Uses wnameless/oracle-xe-11g, needs ojdbc7.jar and setting up a database. See the run commands.
h2-vector. Plays nice with hguerra/h2:geodb, and includes sample scripts for docker-compose and systemd.

Running

Get the image:

docker pull heitorcarneiro/geoserver

Run as a service, exposing port 8080 and using a hosted GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v /path/to/local/data_dir:/var/local/geoserver --name=MyGeoServerInstance heitorcarneiro/geoserver

Using `docker-compose`:

version: "3"

services:
  db:
    image: mdillon/postgis:11
    restart: always
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_USER=geoserver
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=geoserver
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"
    volumes:
      - "$PWD/postgres-data:/var/lib/postgresql/data"
      - "$PWD/postgres-backup:/var/lib/postgresql/backup"

  geoserver:
    image: heitorcarneiro/geoserver:2.15.2.2-java11-hotspot
    restart: always
    environment:
      - CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -server -Xms512M -Xmx512M -DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=/var/local/geoserver"
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
    volumes:
      - "$PWD/geoserver-data:/var/local/geoserver"
      - "$PWD/geoservermaster-logs:/usr/local/tomcat/logs"
    links:
      - "db:postgis"
    depends_on:
      - "db"

mkdir postgres-data && mkdir postgres-backup && mkdir geoserver-data && mkdir geoservermaster-logs

docker-compose up

Customize JAVA_OPTS

docker run --name "geoserver" --link "mydb:postgis" --network proxy -p "8080:8080" -v "$PWD/geoserver-data:/var/local/geoserver" -e CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -server -Xms512M -Xmx512M -DGEOSERVER_DATA_DIR=${GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR}" -d geoserver:2.15.2-java11-hotspot

Configure your own extensions

To add extensions to your GeoServer installation, provide a directory with the unzipped extensions separated by directories (one directory per extension):

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v /path/to/local/exts_dir:/var/local/geoserver-exts/ --name=MyGeoServerInstance heitorcarneiro/geoserver

You can use the build_exts_dir.sh script together with a extensions configuration file to create your own extensions directory easily.

Warning: The .jar files contained in the extensions directory will be copied to the WEB-INF/lib directory of the GeoServer installation. Make sure to include only .jar files from trusted extensions to avoid security risks.

Configure path

It is also possible to configure the context path by providing a Catalina configuration directory:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v /path/to/local/data_dir:/var/local/geoserver -v /path/to/local/conf_dir:/usr/local/tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost --name=MyGeoServerInstance heitorcarneiro/geoserver

See some examples.

Logs

See the tomcat logs while running:

docker logs -f MyGeoServerInstance
