Nextcloud 15 (docker) with MariaDB

[asl]

It would be nice if the dockerized nextcloud could make use of the MariaDB service of ADM.

im sure its possible with a docker sql database and docker compose

[asl]

Yes, that's possible for sure. But there's already a mariadb running, so it makes more sense to use that one than fire up a new one for every service that needs one. RAM is a tad limited here.

The challenge is how to map the host's mariadb port into the nextcloud docker container without exposing the port also to the outside.

Alternative: mount the mariadb socket into the nextcloud container.

Is it possible to use a different approach - install the Docker CE app for ADM, then use the Nextcloud Docker image, from https://github.com/nextcloud/docker?

How to do that?

This is pretty much exactly what the ADM nextcloud app is doing.

I was hoping that the ADM nextcloud maintainers could answer that. But basically the start script would just pass the mount option to the docker run command. And the /etc/php7/conf.d/mysql.ini would need to specify the path to the mariadb socket, as documented here: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stabl ... ation.html
