Some things I am considering:
- We have implemented
fwd_create_pg_cluster.sh(currently in the container project, see #10491). I'd like to create a similarfwd_create_mariadb_datadir.shthat would setup your environment in a consistent manner. I would expect this script would setup any configurations files as we'd require in FWD use. - We mostly abandoned the notion of utilizing the postgres Docker image in our solutions. Instead, opting for an Ubuntu image that would run the FWD server. It would:
- Include custom locales
- Include PostGreSQL install
- Provide control over the entrypoint. The postgres Docker image gives you environment variable hooks to be able to setup the initial cluster, and database creation. Our own implementation affords us more control (using tools like
fwd_create_pg_cluster.sh, for example). We probably would do the same for MariaDB, rather than using the mariadb Docker image.
- Consistent use of the
import.shtool (really just a testing effort).
