usage

# create a mongo service named lolipop
dokku mongo:create lolipop

# you can also specify the image and image
# version to use for the service
# it *must* be compatible with the
# official mongo image
export MONGO_IMAGE="mongo"
export MONGO_IMAGE_VERSION="3.0.5"
dokku mongo:create lolipop

# you can also specify custom environment
# variables to start the mongo service
# in semi-colon separated form
export MONGO_CUSTOM_ENV="USER=alpha;HOST=beta"
dokku mongo:create lolipop

# by default we use the wiredTiger storage solution
# if you are using an image version less than 3.x
# you will need to set a custom MONGO_CONFIG_OPTIONS
# environment variable
export MONGO_CONFIG_OPTIONS=" --auth "
export MONGO_IMAGE_VERSION="2.6.11"
dokku mongo:create lolipop

# get connection information as follows
dokku mongo:info lolipop

# you can also retrieve a specific piece of service info via flags
dokku mongo:info lolipop --config-dir
dokku mongo:info lolipop --data-dir
dokku mongo:info lolipop --dsn
dokku mongo:info lolipop --exposed-ports
dokku mongo:info lolipop --id
dokku mongo:info lolipop --internal-ip
dokku mongo:info lolipop --links
dokku mongo:info lolipop --service-root
dokku mongo:info lolipop --status
dokku mongo:info lolipop --version

# a bash prompt can be opened against a running service
# filesystem changes will not be saved to disk
dokku mongo:enter lolipop

# you may also run a command directly against the service
# filesystem changes will not be saved to disk
dokku mongo:enter lolipop ls -lah /

# a mongo service can be linked to a
# container this will use native docker
# links via the docker-options plugin
# here we link it to our 'playground' app
# NOTE: this will restart your app
dokku mongo:link lolipop playground

# the following environment variables will be set automatically by docker (not
# on the app itself, so they won’t be listed when calling dokku config)
#
#   DOKKU_MONGO_LOLIPOP_NAME=/lolipop/DATABASE
#   DOKKU_MONGO_LOLIPOP_PORT=tcp://172.17.0.1:27017
#   DOKKU_MONGO_LOLIPOP_PORT_27017_TCP=tcp://172.17.0.1:27017
#   DOKKU_MONGO_LOLIPOP_PORT_27017_TCP_PROTO=tcp
#   DOKKU_MONGO_LOLIPOP_PORT_27017_TCP_PORT=27017
#   DOKKU_MONGO_LOLIPOP_PORT_27017_TCP_ADDR=172.17.0.1
#
# and the following will be set on the linked application by default
#
#   MONGO_URL=mongodb://lolipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-mongo-lolipop:27017/lolipop
#
# NOTE: the host exposed here only works internally in docker containers. If
# you want your container to be reachable from outside, you should use `expose`.

# another service can be linked to your app
dokku mongo:link other_service playground

# since DATABASE_URL is already in use, another environment variable will be
# generated automatically
#
#   DOKKU_MONGO_BLUE_URL=mongodb://other_service:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-mongo-other-service:27017/other_service

# you can then promote the new service to be the primary one
# NOTE: this will restart your app
dokku mongo:promote other_service playground

# this will replace MONGO_URL with the url from other_service and generate
# another environment variable to hold the previous value if necessary.
# you could end up with the following for example:
#
#   MONGO_URL=mongodb://other_service:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-mongo-other-service:27017/other_service
#   DOKKU_MONGO_BLUE_URL=mongodb://other_service:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-mongo-other-service:27017/other_service
#   DOKKU_MONGO_SILVER_URL=mongodb://lolipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-mongo-lolipop:27017/lolipop

# you can also unlink a mongo service
# NOTE: this will restart your app and unset related environment variables
dokku mongo:unlink lolipop playground

# you can tail logs for a particular service
dokku mongo:logs lolipop
dokku mongo:logs lolipop -t # to tail

# you can dump the database
dokku mongo:export lolipop > lolipop.dump.gz

# you can import a dump
dokku mongo:import lolipop < database.dump.gz

# you can clone an existing database to a new one
dokku mongo:clone lolipop new_database

# finally, you can destroy the container
dokku mongo:destroy lolipop

Changing database adapter

It's possible to change the protocol for MONGO_URL by setting the environment variable MONGO_DATABASE_SCHEME on the app:

dokku config:set playground MONGO_DATABASE_SCHEME=mongo2
dokku mongo:link lolipop playground

Will cause MONGO_URL to be set as mongo2://lolipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-mongo-lolipop:27017/lolipop

CAUTION: Changing MONGO_DATABASE_SCHEME after linking will cause dokku to believe the mongo is not linked when attempting to use dokku mongo:unlink or dokku mongo:promote. You should be able to fix this by

  • Changing MONGO_URL manually to the new value.

OR

  • Set MONGO_DATABASE_SCHEME back to its original setting
  • Unlink the service
  • Change MONGO_DATABASE_SCHEME to the desired setting
  • Relink the service

Backups

Datastore backups are supported via AWS S3 and S3 compatible services like minio.

You may skip the backup-auth step if your dokku install is running within EC2 and has access to the bucket via an IAM profile. In that case, use the --use-iam option with the backup command.

Backups can be performed using the backup commands:

# setup s3 backup authentication
dokku mongo:backup-auth lolipop AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

# remove s3 authentication
dokku mongo:backup-deauth lolipop

# backup the `lolipop` service to the `BUCKET_NAME` bucket on AWS
dokku mongo:backup lolipop BUCKET_NAME

# schedule a backup
# CRON_SCHEDULE is a crontab expression, eg. "0 3 * * *" for each day at 3am
dokku mongo:backup-schedule lolipop CRON_SCHEDULE BUCKET_NAME

# cat the contents of the configured backup cronfile for the service
dokku mongo:backup-schedule-cat lolipop

# remove the scheduled backup from cron
dokku mongo:backup-unschedule lolipop

Backup auth can also be set up for different regions, signature versions and endpoints (e.g. for minio):

# setup s3 backup authentication with different region
dokku mongo:backup-auth lolipop AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_REGION
 
# setup s3 backup authentication with different signature version and endpoint
dokku mongo:backup-auth lolipop AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY AWS_REGION AWS_SIGNATURE_VERSION ENDPOINT_URL
 
# more specific example for minio auth
dokku mongo:backup-auth lolipop MINIO_ACCESS_KEY_ID MINIO_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY us-east-1 s3v4 https://YOURMINIOSERVICE

Disabling docker pull calls

If you wish to disable the docker pull calls that the plugin triggers, you may set the MONGO_DISABLE_PULL environment variable to true. Once disabled, you will need to pull the service image you wish to deploy as shown in the stderr output.

Please ensure the proper images are in place when docker pull is disabled.
