Narimm / docker-jasperserver

Docker image for the community edition of JasperReports® Server.

JasperReports Server CE Edition Docker Container

The Docker Image aims to quickly get up-and-running a JasperReports Server for a development environment.

(Fork from https://github.com/retrievercommunications/docker-jasperserver.git to use version 8.0.2)

Start the Container

Using Command Line

To start the JasperServer container you'll need to pass in 5 environment variables and link it to either a MySQL or Postgres container.

E.g. docker run -d --name jasperserver -e DB_TYPE=mysql -e DB_HOST=db -e DB_PORT=3306 -e DB_USER=root -e DB_PASSWORD=mysql --link jasperserver_mysql:db -p 8080:8080 retriever/jasperserver

If you haven't got an existing MySQL or Postgres container then you can easily create one: docker run -d --name jasperserver_mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=mysql mysql:5.7

Using Docker-compose

To start up the JasperServer and a MySQL container:

• Run docker-compose up to run in foreground or
• Run docker-compose up -d to run as in daemon mode.

To stop the containers run docker-compose stop and docker-compose start to restart them.

Note: To install Docker-compose see the releases page.

Login to JasperReports Web

1. Go to URL http://${dockerHost}:8080/
2. Login using credentials: jasperadmin/jasperadmin

Image Features

This image includes:

• JasperServer CE Edition version 8.0.2
• A volume called '/import' that allows automatic importing of export zip files from another JasperReports Server
• Waits for the database to start before connecting to it using wait-for-it as recommended by docker-compose documentation.
• Web Service Data Source plugin contributed by @chiavegatto

How to build this image

Use docker build -t tobe81cwb/jasperserver .

See comments in Dockerfile to speed up testing by not having to download the jasperserver release each time.

Troubleshooting

If you are having problems starting the containers because of a MySQL error like "[ERROR] [FATAL] Innodb: Table flags are 0...", then you will need to delete the data_dir which contains the MySQL database and then recreate the containers. Please note that you will lose any data previously stored in the database.
