Ever wanted to quickly get a wordpress blog up and running on your Raspberry Pi? Well here’s how you can do it!
Prerequisite:
Raspberry Pi – https://amzn.to/36i6T5P – *Amazon Affiliate Link*
This assumes you have a raspberry pi with Raspbian installed.
Install docker and docker compose
sudo apt-get install docker.io docker-compose
create a place for the blog to live
mkdir blog
cd blog
Create the following 3 files using your favourite text editor
docker-compose.yml
version: '3'
services:
wordpress:
container_name: wordpress
image: wordpress
volumes:
- '/home/pi/blog/html:/var/www/html'
ports:
- '80:80'
env_file:
- blog_env
mysql:
container_name: mysql
image: hypriot/rpi-mysql
volumes:
- '/home/pi/blog/data:/var/lib/mysql'
env_file:
- mysql_env
redis:
image: redis
container_name: redis
volumes:
mysql: null
wordpress: null
mysql_env
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret
MYSQL_DATABASE=blog
MYSQL_USER=blog_user
MYSQL_PASSWORD=blogSecret
blog_env
WORDPRESS_DB_HOST=mysql
WORDPRESS_DB_USER=blog_user
WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD=blogSecret
WORDPRESS_DB_NAME=blog
Finally, run the following command to launch the blog:
sudo docker-compose up -d --build
I was attempting to write a flask python app and have it containerized on Windows but going to localhost:5000 resulted in an empty response.
FROM python:3
...
WORKDIR /opt/famdo/src
CMD ["gunicorn", "-b", "127.0.0.1:8000", "wsgi:app"]
EXPOSE 8000
The above Dockerfile works perfectly fine in Linux if you hit localhost:8000 from the host. From windows it doesn’t work. The solution is simple!
FROM python:3
...
WORKDIR /opt/famdo/src
CMD ["gunicorn", "-b", "0.0.0.0:8000", "wsgi:app"]
EXPOSE 8000
Bind to 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1 and voila! You can now hit that endpoint via localhost in windows.
