Explanations:

  • --user Inside the container the Agent is operated for the user account jobscheduler. In order to access e.g. log files created by the Agent that are mounted to the Docker host it is recommended that you map the account that is starting the container to the jobscheduler account inside the container. The --user option accepts the user ID and group ID of the account that will be mapped. The above example makes use of the current user.
  • --network The above example makes use of a Docker network - created e.g. with the command docker network create js7 - to allow network sharing between containers. Consider that any inside ports used by Docker containers are visible within a Docker network. Therefore an Agent running for the inside port 4445 is accessible with the container's hostname and the same port within the Docker network.
  • --publish The Agent is prepared to listen to the HTTP port 4445. An outside port of the Docker host can be mapped to the Agent's inside HTTP port. This is not required for use with a Docker network, see --network, however, it will allow direct access to the Agent from the Docker host by its outside port .--env=RUN_JS_HTTP_PORT Consider to specify the same outside port that is used with the --publish option to map an outside port to the inside HTTP port .
  • --env=JAVA_OPTIONS This allows to inject any Java options to the Agent's container. Preferably this is used to specify memory requirements of an Agent, e.g. with -Xmx256m.
  • --mount The following volume mounts are suggested:
    • config: The optional configuration folder allows to specify individual settings for Agent operation, see below chapters and the JS7 - Agent Configuration article. Without this folder the default settings are used.
    • logs: In order to have Agent log files persisted they have to be written to a volume that is mounted for the container. Feel free to adjust the volume name from the src attribute, however, the value of the dst attribute should not be changed as it reflects the directory hierarchy inside the container.
    • state: The Agent requires a directory for journal information that should be persisted. The journal is required to restore the state of orders when restarting the Agent.
