Install with Docker

Start TeselaDB in Docker in secure mode, with TLS and users. The data goes to a volume that outlives the container.

Requirements

• Docker on the machine.
• The viuzi/teseladb:latest image, which always carries the newest release in Download.

Start the container

docker run -d --name teseladb -p 27017:27017 -v teseladb-data:/data \
  viuzi/teseladb:latest start --dbpath /data --bind_ip 0.0.0.0

The first start creates in the volume the certificate authority of the cluster and the root user, as outside Docker.

Get the password and the CA

docker exec teseladb cat /data/root-credentials.txt
docker cp teseladb:/data/pki/ca.pem ./ca.pem

Check

When the node is ready, docker logs teseladb shows its ready line with the identifier of the node and of the cluster.

Common problems

• The node does not answer from your machine because --bind_ip 0.0.0.0 is missing: inside the container, the node listens only on 127.0.0.1 by default.
