Installing Artifactory on Docker

JFrog Artifactory is a repository manager used for versioning deployable like a jar, war, docker image etc. Artifactory Pro is a licensed/paid version which will let you create repositories for docker images and much more.Artifactory OSS is open source and a restrective version where you can create maven repositories and few others.

Get official Artifactory Image

Pull the Artifactory OSS Docker Image, it’s an open source image. For this tutorial, we will go ahead with Artifactory OSS

 

Run Docker Image

 

Map localhost ports

• Then we will try to run the image, we will map Docker on localhost port 8081

 

Map Volumes to persist data

It is important to persist the artifacts which will be fed to Artifactory, so we have two options here

• If it is important to persist the Jenkins data you can choose between the 2 options.
  1. Save data within the docker container, the docker volume persists upon restarts and even after if the container is deleted.
  2. Save data on your host/disk/laptop/machine. Weigh in your requirements and see what fits in with your requirements.

• Option-1> To persist the data within docker container
  
  docker volume create --name artifactory5_data docker run --name artifactory-5.0.0 -d -v artifactory5_data:/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory -p 8081:8081 docker.bintray.io/jfrog/artifactory-pro:latest

  docker volume create --name artifactory5_data   docker run --name artifactory-5.0.0 -d -v artifactory5_data:/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory -p 8081:8081 docker.bintray.io/jfrog/artifactory-pro:latest

  OR

• Option-2> To persist the data within host( host machine/laptop) container
  
  docker run --name artifactory-5.0.0 -d -v /Users/abhishek/jfrog/artifactory:/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory -p 8081:8081 docker.bintray.io/jfrog/artifactory-oss:latest

  docker run --name artifactory-5.0.0 -d -v  /Users/abhishek/jfrog/artifactory:/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory -p 8081:8081 docker.bintray.io/jfrog/artifactory-oss:latest

Verify Installation

• Since Artifactory was mapped to localhost port 8081, open your browser and use localhost:8081 if accessing from the same machine.
