[[TOC]]

The PostGIS project uses docker for a number of regression tests and production use.  We have two different docker setups.

On OSGeo infrastructure we have docker.osgeo.org which docker images are pushed to via postgis-docker.osgeo.org.  These are currently only used by dronie.osgeo.org and woodie.osgeo.org drone agents.  They ware useful for general development as well, because they include multiple versions of PostgreSQL and also include pre-installed postgis versions for doing upgrade tests.

== Docker OSGeo (Development) ==

The docker osgeo infrastructure you can log in via your osgeo user id. Only PostGIS development team members have push rights to this repo.  More details of the images, dockerfiles in use by it can be found at [https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/postgis/postgis-docker  PostGIS-docker repo].


Here is an example of how you can pull an image, retag and push to postgis-docker.osgeo.org

**FOR DEVELOPMENT**
{{{
#To develop and test using this image, do the following
cd ~/
mkdir projects

#this container has no built in entry point to keep it running, 
# create a fake one as discussed here - https://levelup.gitconnected.com/keep-docker-container-running-for-debugging-fc2dfa39472c

#this might take a minute or so after download to start up
# the below exposes the 5436 port of container as 6445 of the host, you can add additional for each cluster

docker run -d \
  --name postgis-dev \
  --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)/projects",target=/projects \
  -p 6432:5432/tcp \
  -p 6433:5433/tcp \
  -p 6434:5434/tcp \
  -p 6435:5435/tcp \
  -p 6436:5436/tcp \
  -p 6437:5437/tcp \
  docker.osgeo.org/postgis/build-test:trisquel3  tail -f /dev/null


cd projects
git clone https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/postgis/postgis.git



#once started you can attach to the container using
docker exec -it postgis-dev /bin/bash

# in the postgis-dev container, you should be able to do
# below copied from https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/postgis/postgis/src/branch/master/ci/dronie/postgis_regress.sh
cd /projects/postgis
export PGVER=15
service postgresql start ${PGVER}
export PGPORT=`grep ^port /etc/postgresql/$PGVER/main/postgresql.conf | awk '{print $3}'`
export PATH=/usr/lib/postgresql/$PGVER/bin:$PATH
#do this to be able to access from host
psql -d postgres -c "ALTER SYSTEM SET listen_addresses='*';"
# change whatever to something more secure, if you care
psql -d postgres -p 5436 -c "ALTER ROLE postgres PASSWORD 'whatever';"
echo "host  all all 0.0.0.0/0 scram-sha-256" >> /etc/postgresql/${PGVER}/main/pg_hba.conf
#shows you list of associate ports for each postgres version (connecting from your host machine would be 6 instead of 5)
pg_lsclusters


service postgresql restart ${PGVER}
echo 

sh autogen.sh
./configure
make
make check

make install
#any changes you make to your local folder projects/postgis, will show in the container /projects/postgis

#in the container

# To stop it do
docker stop postgis-dev

# if you need to remove the container to get a new version do

docker rm postgis-dev

=== Connecting to PostgreSQL from your host machine ===
{{{
psql -U postgres -h localhost -p 6436  #this is the one running PG15 at time of writing

}}}

==  Docker Hub PostGIS ==

Docker Hub is used for Github-actions testing and there is also a postgis for production use. The main link to all is [https://hub.docker.com/u/postgis]

=== Production ===
* **FOR PRODUCTION** [https://hub.docker.com/r/postgis/postgis] - has production images managed by a community of PostGIS users. To become a contributor go to [https://github.com/postgis/docker-postgis]

=== Development ===
* **FOR DEVELOPMENT** [https://hub.docker.com/r/postgis/postgis-build-env] - has development images managed by a PostGIS Development team set aside for regression testing.  Do not use these for production use as they don't even have postgis installed on them. You can find the docker files here [https://github.com/postgis/postgis-build-env]

The postgis-build-env images don't have PostGIS installed on them at all, but have all the key dependencies needed to compile PostGIS.  The version **latest** includes pre-compiled in development versions proj, gdal, geos, postgresql, and sfcgal.  It is used to catch possible issues with other upstream projects.

You can set it up much the same as the docker.osgeo.org development suite detailed earlier.
