Encrypting Passwords in TomEE

It’s a good practice to encrypt the database passwords in tomee.xml. This is taken care of during the run time of the container.

Please remove the value of DSPASSWORD from palette_env.dat once the container is up and running.

The Dockerfiles directory structure is as follows:

Under the scripts folder (palette/scripts)

OIAP Palette Docker Script

Note: Place the Palette build artifact which is downloaded from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud in the externallibs/zip directory. Check the below snippet

 

Pallete Zip Folder

Under externallibs folder

Palette Docker Externallib

Docker Image Build

From the Dockerfile location, execute the below command (a sample build.sh file is placed for reference)

docker build format:

$ docker build --network=host -t <Image_Name>:<Image_Tag> . --build-arg PALETTE_PKG="<PALETTE Package Name>"

docker build example:

$ docker build --network=host -t palette_tomee:12.2.0.0 . --build-arg PALETTE_PKG="PaletteConfig-tomEE.war"

To start the containerized PaletteConfig application, run

docker run format: (-v refers to volumes)

$ docker run -itd --network=host --privileged -v /path/to/the/externallibs:/usr/local/tomee/externallibs/ --env-file /path/to/the/palette_env.dat -p <App_External_Port>:<App_Container_Port> --name <Container_Name> --hostname localhost <Image_Name>:<Image_Tag> createServer.sh $DB_TYPE

docker run example:

For ORACLE:

$ docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --network=host -v /path/to/the/externallibs:/usr/local/tomee/externallibs/ --env-file /home/paletteconfig/palette_env.dat -p 7003:7003 --name palette_tomee --hostname localhost palette_tomee:12.2.0 createServer.sh ORACLE

For DB2:

$ docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --network=host -v /path/to/the/externallibs:/usr/local/tomee/externallibs/ --env-file /home/paletteconfig/palette_env.dat -p 7003:7003 --name palette_tomee --hostname localhost palette_tomee:12.2.0.0 createServer.sh DB2

For MSSQL:

$ docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --network=host -v /path/to/externallibs:/usr/local/tomee/externallibs/ --env-file /home/paletteconfig/palette_env.dat -p 7003:7003 --name palette_tomee --hostname localhost palette_tomee:12.2.0.0 createServer.sh MSSQL

Ensure you define the Database names as below only (Case Sensitive)

  • Oracle Database: ORACLE

  • DB2 Database: DB2

  • SQL Database: MSSQL

Check the docker logs in the PUTTY console by executing the below command:

$ docker logs -f palette_tomee

Access the application when you see the Server startup in [xxxxxx] milliseconds message in the PUTTY console.
