FormIO docker

Build a simple docker iamge for the form.io API-Server and web-application

Why

The official docker-image (or image-run-process) is a little bit weird in my opinion, so i put that together. It currently pulls the latest release of formio and formio-web-app and builds the container. I also added a small fix for auto-detecting the application-url. Plus: application is not runnind as root.

How to build

make docker_build docker_tag docker_push DOCKER_REPO=your.repo.org

Configure build

You can pass several parameters to the build process

  • DOCKER_CMD = the docker command, default is docker
  • DOCKER_ORG = will prefix the image, default is witcom
  • DOCKER_REPO = will prefix the image in the docker_tag target
  • DOCKER_IMAGE = name of the docker-image, default is formio-server

Skip the target you don't want, e.g. docker_tag & docker_push

How to run

It uses the same ENV-Variables like the official form.io.
