Use Unleash Docker Image

Useful links:

• Azure Community Docker image on dockerhub
• Google Community Docker image on dockerhub
• OpenID Connect Community Docker image on dockerhub
• Official Unleash Helm Chart on artifacthub

Steps:

1. Create a network by running docker network create unleash
2. Start a postgres database:

docker run -d -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=some_password \
  -e POSTGRES_USER=unleash_user -e POSTGRES_DB=unleash \
  --network unleash --name postgres postgres

3. Start Unleash via docker:

See index.js and auth-hook.js example implementations for azure within the example repository.

docker run -p 4242:4242 \
  -e DATABASE_HOST=postgres -e DATABASE_NAME=unleash \
  -e DATABASE_USERNAME=unleash_user -e DATABASE_PASSWORD=some_password \
  -e DATABASE_SSL=false \
  -e BASE_URI_PATH= \
  -e UNLEASH_AUTH_TENANT_ID={AZURE_TENANT_ID} \
  -e UNLEASH_AUTH_CLIENT_ID={AZURE_CLIENT_ID} \
  -e UNLEASH_AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET={AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET} \
  -e UNLEASH_HOST=http://localhost:4242 \
  -v $(pwd)/index.js:/unleash/index.js \
  -v $(pwd)/azure-hook.js:/unleash/auth-hook.js \
  --network unleash unleashorg/unleash-community-azure

All configuration options available in our documentation.

User accounts

• Once started up, you'll have to use the OIDC provider with your credentials.

Building the docker image

Since Unleash v6.0.0 requires Node 20, use --build-arg NODE_VERSION=20-alpine when building

Upgrade version

When we upgrade the unleash-version this project should be tagged with the same version number.

git tag -a 6.0.0 -m "upgrade to unleash-server 6.0.0"
git push origin main --follow-tags

You might also want to update the minor tag:

git tag -d 6.0
git push origin :6.0
git tag -a 6.0 -m "Update 6.0 tag"
git push origin main --follow-tags

This will automatically trigger a github actions which will build the new tag and push it to docker-hub.

Looking for SSO and coming from https://github.com/Unleash/helm-charts ?

The old way of configuring SSO with a custom index.js in a config-map is no longer needed. These images handle the custom index.js file for you. However, you will have to configure environment variables (probably better to use secrets) as documented further up. For both Azure and OpenID the three environment variables you'll need are:

• UNLEASH_AUTH_TENANT_ID
• UNLEASH_AUTH_CLIENT_ID
• UNLEASH_AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET
