Ploneintranet Docker install

Plone Support
1

When I try to follow the instructions at https://docs.ploneintranet.org/installation/quickstart.html#a-docker-based-os-setup to install PloneIntranet using Docker, I get the message:

sh: PROJECT: command not found
c:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker.exe: "run" requires a minimum of 1 argument.
See 'c:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\docker.exe run --help'.

Usage: docker run [OPTIONS] IMAGE [COMMAND] [ARG...]

Run a command in a new container

When trying to issue the command:

docker run -i -t
--net=host
-e LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
-e LANG=en_US.UTF-8
-v $(PWD):/app -w /app -u app $(PROJECT)

Can anyone help me with this?

That command is a Makefile command, using the Makefile-defined $(PROJECT) which typically is venus or ploneintranet - it should be the same name as the docker image you built with the provided make docker-build target. Did you build that container?

The provided scripts and environment settings are for Linux, they're not for Windows.

The overall steps are:

  1. build a Docker image using the ploneintranet supplied Dockerfile
    https://docs.docker.com/windows/
  2. run that docker image (this gives you a standard Ubuntu container with all dependencies pre-installed for you)
  3. buildout the ploneintranet install (inside the docker container)
  4. start all services
  5. create a site and run the testcontent demo profile using the ZMI
  6. access the Ploneintranet site you just created

For steps 1 and 2 on Windows, you should probably figure those out by following
https://docs.docker.com/windows/ and using the ploneintranet supplied Dockerfile.

For the following steps, use the documented ploneintranet install procedure.

Hope that helps.
