ldapdock
a configurable container running openLDAP
Step by step approach on how to setup and run an openLDAP server on a systemd-less docker image container
1- Creating the ldapdock image container
build ldapdock from the dockerfile and run into it
> docker build -t ldapdock /path/to/dockerfile
> docker run -h example.com -i -t -v ldap_data:/var/lib/ldap -v ldap_config:/etc/ldap/slapd.d ldapdock /bin/bash
Parameters explanation:
with -h we are specifying the name of the host, we are using example.com, this is very important. -i tells docker to run in an interactive way instead of running the container in the background. -t goes in hand with -i, and allocates a tty (terminal) so we can run commands. -v mounts a volume to save miscellaneous data in general, and config, content such as directories, databases and users.
