Deploying IT Tools with Docker Compose¶

Deployment of IT Tools¶

This section guides you through setting up the IT Tools Docker container using Docker Compose. IT Tools is a utility container providing various information technology tools.

Docker Compose Configuration¶

Below is the Docker Compose file necessary for deploying the IT Tools service. Save this configuration as docker-compose.yml in your project directory.

version: '3.9'
services:
  it-tools:
    image: 'corentinth/it-tools:latest'  # The Docker image to use.
    ports:
      - '8080:80'  # Maps port 80 inside the container to port 8080 on the host.
    restart: unless-stopped  # Ensures the container restarts unless it is explicitly stopped.
    container_name: it-tools  # Custom name for the container.

Instructions¶

1. Prepare the Environment: Ensure Docker and Docker Compose are installed on your host machine.

2. Create a Docker Compose File: Create a new file named docker-compose.yml and copy the above content into this file.

3. Start the Container: Run the following command in the directory where your docker-compose.yml is located:

   docker compose up -d
   

   This command starts the IT Tools container in detached mode.

4. Accessing IT Tools: Open a web browser and navigate to http://<host-ip>:8080 to access the IT Tools interface.

By following these steps, you can easily deploy and manage the IT Tools container, which provides a suite of utilities for IT management and troubleshooting.

Updating IT Tools¶

docker compose up -d
