Running

Running with Docker

To run the cisagov/client-cert-update image via Docker:

docker run cisagov/client-cert-update:0.1.4

Running with Docker Compose

  1. Create a docker-compose.yml file similar to the one below to use Docker Compose.

    ---
    version: "3.7"
    
    services:
      update:
        image: cisagov/client-cert-update:0.1.4
        init: true
        environment:
          - AWS_CONFIG_FILE=path/to/aws_config
          - AWS_PROFILE=default
  2. Start the container and detach:

    docker compose up --detach

Using secrets with your container

This container also supports passing sensitive values via Docker secrets. Passing sensitive values like your credentials can be more secure using secrets than using environment variables. See the secrets section below for a table of all supported secret files.

  1. To use secrets, create aws_config and scan_read_creds.yml files containing the values you want set:

    [default]
    credential_source = Ec2InstanceMetadata
    region = us-east-2
    role_arn = arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/AssumeSesSendEmail-CodeGovUpdate

    Please see the cisagov/mongo-db-from-config project for creating your own scan_read_creds.yml file.

  2. Then add the secrets to your docker-compose.yml file:

    ---
    version: "3.7"
    
    secrets:
      aws_config:
        file: ./src/secrets/aws_config
      scan_read_creds:
        file: ./src/secrets/scan_read_creds.yml
    
    services:
      update:
        image: cisagov/client-cert-update:0.1.4
        init: true
        environment:
          - AWS_CONFIG_FILE=/run/secrets/aws_config
          - AWS_PROFILE=default
        secrets:
          - source: aws_config
            target: aws_config
          - source: scan_read_creds
            target: scan_read_creds.yml

Updating your container

Docker Compose

  1. Pull the new image from Docker Hub:

    docker compose pull
  2. Recreate the running container by following the previous instructions:

    docker compose up --detach

Docker

  1. Stop the running container:

    docker stop <container_id>
  2. Pull the new image:

    docker pull cisagov/client-cert-update:0.1.4
  3. Recreate and run the container by following the previous instructions.
