Build your own Docker image

The node-red-docker-oracle directory contains files you need to build your own images.

The follow steps describe in short which steps to take to build your own images.

1. git clone

Clone the node-red-docker-oracle project from github

git clone https://github.com/ryuunosukeds3/node-red-docker-oracle

Change dir to node-red-docker-oracle

cd /node-red-docker-oracle

1. package.json

• Change the node-red version in package.json (from the docker-custom directory) to the version you require
• Add optionally packages you require

2. flows.json

• The flows.json file is the default flow that will be used if no external volume is mounted to /data. You can replace this by a preconfigured flow and launch it by not mounting a /data volume, but most users will mount and save data and flows externally.

3. docker-alpine.sh

The docker-alpine.sh is a helper scripts to build a custom Node-RED docker image. The docker-alpine script is based on Alpine as per the default docker package.

Change the build arguments as needed:

I think instant client is only available for amd64. If not, you should change the link and the parameters of the instant client instalation on the Dockerfile

• --build-arg ARCH=amd64 : architecture your are building for (arm32v6, arm32v7, arm64v8, amd64)
• --build-arg NODE_VERSION=10 : NodeJS version you like to use
• --build-arg NODE_RED_VERSION=${NODE_RED_VERSION} : don't change this, ${NODE_RED_VERSION} gets populated from package.json
• --build-arg OS=alpine : the linux distro to use (alpine)
• --build-arg BUILD_DATE="$(date +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")" : don't change this
• --build-arg TAG_SUFFIX=default : to build the default or minimal image
• --file Dockerfile.custom : Dockerfile to use to build your image.
• --tag testing:node-red-build : set the image name and tag

4. Run docker-alpine.sh

Run docker-alpine.sh

$ ./docker-alpine.sh

This starts building your custom image and might take a while depending on the system you are running on.

When building is done you can run the custom image by the following command:

$ docker run -it -p1880:1880 -v node_red_data:/data --name myNRtest node-red-docker-oracle:latest

With the following command you can verify your docker image:

$ docker inspect node-red-docker-oracle:latest

5. Advanced Configuration

The relevant Dockerfile can be modified as required.

Uncomment and change the NLS_LANG with your database NLS_LANG. Default is American_America.WE8ISO8859P1

Change the version from oracle instant client on the docker file as needed. Default is latest.

The instant client library location is located on /lib
