Docker Compose: Couchbase Server and Sync Gateway

Docker Version

Tested on docker engine 17.03.1-ce and docker compose 1.12.0

Components

  1. Couchbase Server (Single Node)
  2. Sync Gateway (Single Node)

Launch containers

1 .docker-compose up

Configure Couchbase Server

  1. Find the local high port that is mapped to Couchbase Server port 8091 by running docker ps | grep -i couchbase-server and looking for something that looks like 0.0.0.0:32771->8091/tcp.
  2. Open a web browser and point to localhost:32771, replacing 32771 with the actual high port found in previous command
  3. Configure Couchbase Server via Web Admin UI.
    • You will probably need to reduce the memory because it tries to take the entire memory of the Linux host machine, even though only a portion of it is available to the container.
    • Create a "default" bucket, since that is what the Sync Gateway configuration tries to connect to
  4. Restart the docker compose by running Ctl-C to stop it, followed by docker-compose up to restart it. This required is to work around Sync Gateway Issue 2465

Verify Sync Gateway

Initially, Sync Gateway will be in a retry loop trying to connect to Couchbase Server, and you can expect to see Opening Couchbase database default on <http://couchbase-server:8091> as user "default" repeated in the logs.

Once Couchbase Server has been configured, you should see the following in the Sync Gateway logs:

sync-gateway_1      | 2017-04-10T21:14:23.137Z Opening Couchbase database default on <http://couchbase-server:8091> as user "default"
sync-gateway_1      | 2017-04-10T21:14:28.261Z Opening Couchbase database default on <http://couchbase-server:8091> as user "default"
sync-gateway_1      | _time=2017-04-10T21:14:28.286+00:00 _level=INFO _msg=Non-healthy node; node details:

sync-gateway_1      | 2017-04-10T21:14:29.162Z Starting server on :4984 ...
  1. Find the local high port that is mapped to Sync Gateway port 4984 by running docker ps | grep -i sync-gateway and looking for something that looks like 0.0.0.0:32772->4984/tcp.
  2. Open a web browser and point to localhost:32772, replacing 32772 with the actual high port found in previous command. You should see: {"couchdb":"Welcome","vendor":{"name":"Couchbase Sync Gateway","version":1.4},"version":"Couchbase Sync Gateway/1.4.0(2;9e18d3e)"}
