Commands in docker-compose.yml?

1

Hello! So I’m pretty confused on how to use Docker with Render (and how to use Docker!)

I have a command in my docker-compose.yml file that looks like command: sh -c "sleep 10 && /entrypoint.sh db createdb && /entrypoint.sh db migrate && echo 'running' && /entrypoint.sh run"

My question is: Where do I add this to run in Render web-service for my Docker web-service? I put this into the Pre-Deploy Command but that didn’t seem to work (I just got errors). Any help would be appreciated!

Hey Michael,

It’s a little difficult to know where each command should go without knowing what you intend to you with this service. What does your docker-compose.yml look like? What is your entrypoint.sh file doing? We let you override the Docker CMD and ENTRYPOINT commands in your service via the ‘Docker Command’ option.

Hey Jeremy! Thanks for the response. I’m sure it’s something I’m doing wrong.

This is what my docker-compose.yml looks like https://github.com/papercups-io/papercups/blob/6a6f5adc7f0cef5813b2c2f1c0659922defaf976/docker-compose.yml#L10

and this is what my entrypoint.sh file looks like https://github.com/papercups-io/papercups/blob/6a6f5adc7f0cef5813b2c2f1c0659922defaf976/docker-entrypoint.sh

Basically, I need to set up the DB but not sure where to put the sh -c "sleep 10 && /entrypoint.sh db createdb && /entrypoint.sh db migrate && echo 'running' && /entrypoint.sh run" command in Render.

Thanks for the help!

For context, I tried putting sleep 10 && /entrypoint.sh db createdb && /entrypoint.sh db migrate && echo 'running' && /entrypoint.sh run into the Pre-deploy and it would give an error

==> Pre-deploy has failed
sleep: invalid number ‘&&’

which is pretty weird.

I’m like 80% sure the command should be in pre-deploy (or deploy) because this is setting up the DB and then running the service

Hey Michael,

You can create an entry point script with the following content:

#!/bin/bash sleep 10 ./entrypoint.sh db createdb ./entrypoint.sh db migrate echo 'running' ./entrypoint.sh run

And run it with the following command for example sh -c ./docker-entrypoint.sh
