Run Docker Compose

by ·

Here’s how to run docker-compose. I have an Icecast docker-compose.yml file. Icecast is an audio streaming server.

version: "2"
 
services:
  icecast:
    image: moul/icecast
    environment:
      - ICECAST_SOURCE_PASSWORD=secret
      - ICECAST_ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret
      - ICECAST_PASSWORD=secret
      - ICECAST_RELAY_PASSWORD=secret
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    restart: always

To run Icecast in a container , I run docker-compose in the background.

docker-compose up -d

Check to see if Icecast is running on your browser.

http://localhost:8000

To stop the Icecast container, I simply stop the docker-compose.

docker-compose stop

Here are the other docker commands you can run.

docker images
docker ps
docker-compose ps

GCP Start Multiple Instances

by ·

Here’s how to start multiple instances using Bash and Google SDK.

#!/bin/bash
while IFS=', ' read -r a b c; do
  instance="${a//[[:blank:]]/}"
  project="${b//[[:blank:]]/}"
  zone="${c//[[:blank:]]/}"
  echo "Starting $instance ...."
  gcloud compute instances start $instance \
  --zone $zone --project $project --async
done < instance-list.txt

Instances are read from an external file. The file format is displayed below.

server1,project1,us-central1-a
server2,project2,us-central1-b
server3,project3,us-central1-c

To stop multiple instances, replace “start” with “stop.”
