Feature offer: cf dev deploy-service docker-redis, docker-postgresql, etc
drnic opened this issue · comments
Currently cf dev deploy-service offers mysql.
If you'd like I could investigate adding support for a range of dev/test services based on https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community/docker-broker-deployment
I would upgrade the docker images etc as part of the work (I've not worked on this project for couple years).
This would allow cf dev users to install redis, postgresql, kafka, etc as single-node dedicated services via BOSH/Docker
We have created an issue in Pivotal Tracker to manage this:

The labels on this github issue will be updated when the story is started.
We appreciate the feature offer, but there's no need to invest the time into it.
CF Dev is quite "full" already and additional services are only considered if there is overwhelming demand for it. Moreover, we're trying to mimic a production environment as closely as we can. If you were initially looking for more services than mysql, you can following the instructions in the FAQ to do so. Finally, if you were looking for a way to access services on the host from within an application container, CF Dev allows you do so with the host.cfdev.sh hostname.
