This sample shows how to use REX-Ray with AWS EBS and Docker Compose
This sample requires Docker version 1.13, where the docker plugin feature has been introduced.
If you want to use the long syntax to specify volumes for a service, Docker Compose schema version 2.3 hence Docker version 17.06.0+ are required.
Install REX-Ray as a Docker plugin:
docker plugin install rexray/ebs:0.11.2 EBS_ACCESSKEY=AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID EBS_SECRETKEY=AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
Create an AWS EBS volume
aws ec2 create-volume --size 10 --region eu-central-1 --availability-zone eu-central-1a --volume-type gp2 --tag-specifications 'ResourceType=volume,Tags=[{Key=Name,Value=test-volume}]'
For Docker Compose schema version 2.1, start the busybox container using Docker Compose this way:
docker-compose up
Expected output:
Creating busy ... done
Attaching to busy
busy | total 8
busy | drwx------ 2 root root 4096 May 12 19:15 .
busy | drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4096 May 12 19:30 ..
busy exited with code 0
For Docker Compose schema version 2.3+, start the busybox container using Docker Compose this way:
docker-compose -f docker-compose_2.3 up
Expected output:
Creating busy ... done
Attaching to busy
busy | total 8
busy | drwx------ 2 root root 4096 May 12 19:15 .
busy | drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4096 May 12 19:30 ..
busy exited with code 0
