Docker Deployment
The DataCap project provides devliveorg/datacap Docker images containing the DataCap server and default configurations. The Docker images are published to Docker Hub and can be used with Docker runtime.
Running the Container¶
To run DataCap in Docker, you must have Docker Engine installed on your machine. You can get it from the Docker website, or use your operating system's packaging system.
Use the docker command to run a container from the devliveorg/datacap image. Give it the name 'datacap' to make it easier to reference later. Run it in the background and map the default DataCap port (i.e., 9096) from inside the container to port 9096 on your workstation.
docker run -d -p 9909:9096 --name datacap devliveorg/datacap
If you don't specify a container image tag, it defaults to latest, but you can use any of the published DataCap versions, such as devliveorg/datacap:2024.4.
Danger
External MySQL configuration mounting is required. The service can be started using:
docker run -d -p 9096:9096 -v /root/application.properties:/opt/app/datacap/configure/application.properties --name datacap devliveorg/datacap
Assuming your configuration file is at /root/application.properties. For other paths, please specify the absolute path.
Run docker ps to see all containers running in the background.
-> % docker ps

Cleanup¶
You can stop and start the container using the docker stop datacap and docker start datacap commands. To completely remove a stopped container, run docker rm datacap.
